I see baseparse has configured update_interval to 1.5sec by default https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/blob/1.22/subprojects/gstreamer/libs/gst/base/gstbaseparse.c#L3973 . But my mp3 duration is < 1.5sec hence not hitting frames_count  == 1.5sec worth of frames. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/blob/1.22/subprojects/gstreamer/libs/gst/base/gstbaseparse.c#L2512

>> 4) While checking logs found that query_duration call goes till source element in plugin , duration info is available in BYTES_FORMAT , but requested one is TIME_FORMAT . Basesrc is unable to convert to required format & in baseparse there is no code for conversion.  QUERY_POSITION case in baseparse https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/blob/1.22/subprojects/gstreamer/libs/gst/base/gstbaseparse.c#L4196 has a code for conversion but same code/logic is not present in QUERY_DURATION case https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/blob/1.22/subprojects/gstreamer/libs/gst/base/gstbaseparse.c#L4213 . Any reason why conversion logic is not present ? 
>> 5) Do we have soln patch for such case ?
