Interesting project. I haven't used fallback sex either, for sure you can
insert an IDR anywhere you want. So if you have a 5s prerecorded sequence,
you can always use the and switch to your pre-recorded sequence until the
rtsp part is restored. You can probably do that yourself too. The least
painful method imho would be to use seperate pipeline. One for rtsp, one
for file fallack, and one for the recording. Then with appsrc (2) and
appsink (recording) you can multiplex in your app.
