Re: Segmentation fault while using GST_BUFFER macros

Irfan Shaikh-2
Hi sudarshan.....
 
                 I fixed the segmentation fault......Yaa i had not allocated size of outputbuff properly....
Now it works fine...Thanks for your help.....

Hi Irfan
         Did u check outputbuf is allocated properly as a GstBuffer  ?

Hi Sudarshan,
 
I was not able to do changes as you suggested to me. Instead i tried the following. Since i just needed a flag or something which my next plug-in element should recognize i used following.
 
  for(m=0; m<pkt->payload_count; m++)
  {
          if(pkt->payloads[m].key_frame == 1)
          {
              g_print("Inside IF\n");
              GST_BUFFER_OFFSET(outputbuf) = 1;                                                              /*Segmentation fault*/
              GST_BUFFER_FLAG_SET (outputbuf, GST_BUFFER_FLAG_DELTA_UNIT);         /*Segmentation fault*/
              GST_BUFFER_DURATION(outputbuf)=(GstClockTime)1;                                      /*Segmentation fault*/
              /*
              At RTP ASF payloader check using...
              GST_BUFFER_FLAG_IS_SET(buf, GST_BUFFER_FLAG_DELTA_UNIT);
              */
              g_print("In Packet Payload %d consists of KEY FRAME\n", m);
          }
    }
I am not able to use any of the macros, if i use them i get a segmentation fault. How shall i avoid Segmentation fault.

Irfan

Hi Irfan  ,
         Yes this can be done in better way . Use  gst_caps_new_simple ()  to set the flag for key frame . You can see how asfdemux sends extradata to decoder .( see gstasfdemux.c file ) ,
     Once you do this , you can receive the same data in decoder or next element . So in order to receive this information next element has to register funtion using gst_pad_set_setcaps_function( )  ( just check some decode's code which gets frame height and width from demuxer in this manner )  .

Hi sudarshan,

     I have completed the asfparser plug-in code now itz working fine as per requirrement :-)

I am only facing a small problem. I want to convey to next Plug-in element. Whether ASF data packet i m sending to next element consists of Key frame or no ?


For conveying this information i have thought of using following field of GstBuffer.
  guint64 offset;
I would either SET it or RESET it while pushing the data gst_pad_push(asfparse->srcpad, outputbuf)


Is there any other convinent{feasible} way of conveying the above information to next plug-in element {Is there some macro or Some flag that i can use using GstBuffer before pushing outputbuf}
So as to convey to next element whether the outputbuf {consisting ASF data packet} has a KEY frame or no ??

Regards,
Irfan
