However, for the third NAL (an 0x65 NAL) it seems that it starts copying from the input stream 27 bytes too early resulting in both the two first NALs to be duplicated into the stream where the second time they appear they are prepended with the h264 header 00 00 00 01 or 00 00 01 and the header of the third NAL to be copied incorrectly (all this is marked with pink above). In other words all the 27 bytes marked with pink above should be removed.<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">I have then investigated in the rtph264payload source code how this happens and what I have found is that the payload is doing the following to each input buffer:<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">1. The input buffer to the element in pushed into an GstAdapter<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">2. Then the full GstAdapter is searched through in order to determine the start position of all the NALs<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">3. Then for each of the NALs a buffer is taken from from the adapter with gst_adapter_take_buffer<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">4. These buffers are then parsed to determine which type of NAL is contained within and how big the buffer is<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">5. If the buffer size is below the mtu size of the system:<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"> 5.1. Make a new GstBuffer with the correct header<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"> 5.2.

In other words, when we use gst_buffer_copy_info() to copy from the buffer taken from the GstAdapter with an offset of zero it starts at offset 0 relative to the start of the data pushed into the adapter even though 27 bytes have been taken or flushed from the adapter before this.<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone know of a way to make the function gst_buffer_copy_into respect the offset of the input buffer instead of starting at the start of the adapter?<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">Kind regards<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">Andreas Corneliussen<o:p></o:p></p> </div> <div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html>
