The way I tried it is to redirect the filesink output to the /dev/null and reconfigure it to a proper place when a recording event arrives but for that I had to set the file sink state to GST_STATE_NULL (or GST_STATE_READY it was a while ago) which caused issues with the other parts of he pipeline. But it would be great if this part could also be covered by plain pipeline on the gst side.</div><div class=""><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On 2020.

So there should be a live stream and this 'buffered' recording. Also I cannot 'pre-mux' the audio with the video since audio is completely optional and it could be configured to be recorded only when the recording is started (so there would be video for like 30 seconds from the buffer and then audio would join in later). The hard requirement is this (to have X seconds of video before the user hits the record and optional audio attached to it) but I wanted to implement it in a general way so the other part of the application should not be aware if the 'buffered' data is audio or video.<o:p class=""></o:p></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">This is why I started with separate pipelines and transferring the data between them with appsinks and appsrcs, and do the buffering and other logic on the application side, I guess this is a naive way of implementing it so if there is any suggestion it is more than welcomed :D<o:p class=""></o:p></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Thanks!<o:p class=""></o:p></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><br class=""><br class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></div><blockquote style="margin-top: 5pt; margin-bottom: 5pt;" class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">On 2020.
