<div dir="ltr">Hi Bernhard,<div>Currently i am using the filesrc element. It reads the buffers it self. Doing some more debugging shows that the filesrc element is in PAUSE state when the fifo is empty. Instead of going for EOS , filesrc element waits. i believe this is the reason filesrc not changing to READY or NULL state. I will check your solution with appsrc element , which i will read from the fio and push to the appsrc element.</div><div class="gmail_extra"> <div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Mar 6, 2018 at 6:57 PM, Bernhard Graaf <<a href="mailto:bernhard.graaf@gmx.de" target="_blank">bernhard.graaf@gmx.de</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> <div lang="DE" link="blue" vlink="blue"> <div class="m_-6238810299267647367Section1"> Quit simple: Generate named pipe.

In my implementation , the /tmp/test is also a fifo. the filesrc element read from this fifo. But i am not able to send EOS even to pipeline or the filesrc element (call isn't returned ). I have tried ulinking and deleting this fifo, also tried with fdsrc instead of filesrc. All result in same behaviour. Would you tell me if i am doing anything wrong? the pipeline is stopping correctly when running in foreground. Only cause issues when run from other programs using system() command or making this as an application. </div> </div> <div> <div> On Tue, Mar 6, 2018 at 4:51 PM, bernhard.graaf <<a href="mailto:bernhard.graaf@gmx.de" target="_blank">bernhard.graaf@gmx.de</a>> wrote: <div> <div> I handle this with a named pipe </div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div id="m_-6238810299267647367m_-5738193980912035446composer_signature"> <div> Von meinem Samsung Galaxy Smartphone gesendet. </div> </div> <div> </div> <div> <div> -------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- </div> <div> Von: Anjo John <<a href="mailto:anjo.john@vvdntech.in" target="_blank">anjo.john@vvdntech.in</a>> </div> <div> Datum: 06.03.18 08:13 (GMT+01:00) </div> <div> An: Discussion of the development of and with GStreamer <<a href="mailto:gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org" target="_blank">gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a>> </div> <div> Betreff: element send EOS event not returning </div> <div> </div> </div> <div> <div> <div> Hi All, <div> i have a Gstreamer application to read H264 data from a fifo and decode+display. Problem i am facing is whenever i run the pipeline using gst-launch i am able to stop the pipeline with ctrl+c interrupt. But if i run the same pipeline using system () command from other application and sending kill -2 to gst-launch , pipeline is not stopping. </div> <div> this is my pipeline </div> <div> gst-launch-1.0 -e filesrc location=/tmp/test ! h264parse ! imxvpudec ! imxg2dvideosink framebuffer=/dev/fb1 <div> </div> <div> i have converted this to c application and added a signal handler for SIGINT. in signal handler i sent the event </div> <div> gst_element_send_event(pipeline, gst_event_new_eos()); </div> <div> but the call never returns. Also tried to sent the event to filesrc element. It is also hanging. </div> <div> is there any way to stop the pipeline gracefully, any help is appreciated </div> <div> </div> -- <div> *With Best Regards* *Anjo John* VVDN Technologies Pvt Ltd *Cell : *+91 9539931442 | Skype :anjojohn051 </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org" target="_blank">gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel" target="_blank">https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel</a> </div> <div> </div> -- <div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"> *With Best Regards* *Anjo John* VVDN Technologies Pvt Ltd *Cell : *+91 9539931442 | Skype :anjojohn051 </div> </div> </div></div></div> </div> _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org">gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel</a> </blockquote></div> <div> </div>-- <div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"> *With Best Regards* *Anjo John* VVDN Technologies Pvt Ltd *Cell : *+91 9539931442 | Skype :anjojohn051 </div> </div></div>
