<div id="smartTemplate4-quoteHeader">Hello, Nicolas.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your answers!<br>
<br>
But the pipeline:<br>
<br>
<i>Â Â Â gst-launch-1.0.exe videotestsrc ! filesink
location=bigfile.yuv</i><br>
<br>
will not detect this bug, since there is no need to seek inside
the file in this case, and therefore fseeko will not be called.<br>
<br>
But the pipeline like:<br>
<i>Â Â Â <br>
   gst-launch-1.0.exe videotestsrc !
video/x-raw,width=1920,height=1080,framerate=30/1 ! x264enc
bitrate=50000 ! matroskamux ! filesink location=test.mkv</i><br>
<br>
will detect it.<br>
<br>
I conducted an experiment - gstreamer-1.0-mingw-x86_64-1.16.3.msi
prebuilt binary does not contain this error.<br>
<br>
Anyway, thank you very much!<br>

The reason for this error was obvious, but the reasons for its
occurrence were not obvious for me.<br>
<br>
Ultimately, gstreamer-1.0-mingw-x86_64-1.16.3.msi prebuilt
binary does not contain this error, am I right?</div>

I don't want to use the msvc build, in our projects, we are
now trying to completely switch to gcc and cmake, taking into
account the urgent need for cross-platform.<br>
<br>
By the way, was the performance of gstreamer compared in the
mingw vs msvc build on windows?</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I haven't heard of any scientific measure of performance
comparing MingW and MSCV. For most of the work, I would expect
similar results (though larger binary). Note that the binary for
1.16 might be built with an old Mingw, I can't remember when we
updated that toolchain in your build system. There is plugins
that cannot be built without MSCV, and but opposite is also
true.</div>
