Hi All,
I have a pipeline that tees into a filesink and an appsink. Once every minute I send an EOS down the pipe, tear the pipe down and restart it. I did this so I could change the output locations of the file- and app- sinks.
From the answers I got on how to change the output file for a filesink I'd like to redo my code so I either don't stop the pipe at all or so that I cleanly restart it after the EOS.
So, which is the better solution:
1. Send EOS, then restart the pipe after I get the filesink outfile location modified, or
1.1 How do you restart a pipe (reading from SOUPHTTPSRC in my case) after an EOS?
2. Perhaps put a queue before the tee, block its src pad, set the new outfile, unblock the tee.
This also gets me to finding a cleaver way to let appsink know filesink is changing its output location. Could I use a custom event instead of EOS to pass my 1 minute timeout down the pipe?
Thanks,
Wes
