Hi, with webrtcbin it appears that if one attempts to create-answer immediately after set-remote-description, that the promise is often not called back with the answer.
From looking at the logs I can see the webrtcbin create_answer_task run and it even appears to reply to the promise. However, I never see the promise return to my code.
It also appears that the create_answer_task starts while gstreamer is creating a bunch of elements in response to set-remote-description. My inference is that gstreamer needs to process the offer
and set up those elements before it can correctly create an answer. Is this the case?
I am able to get the answer created if my code waits a bit (e.g. 200ms) between the set-remote-description and the create-answer. The answer is returned and sent back to the client, ice negotiation
happens, media flows, etc.
I’m using gstreamer 1.16.0 on OSX. I’m also using the java bindings via gst1-java-core 1.1.0.
The java bindings interrupt the promise passed into the set-remote-description call (signal emission) indicating that a callback isn’t needed. I tried replacing this logic and passing in an actual
(non-interrupted) promise to set-remote-description to get notified when it is complete, and then do create-answer. However, that didn’t seem to work – the answer still wasn’t returned. Perhaps the completion promise is called back before gstreamer has actually
fully processed the offer.
My code that encountered these problems is running in a unit test that creates one pipeline for the client (sending) side of a webrtc session and another pipeine for the peer (receiver) side of
a webrtc session. Both pipelines are running in the same process on the same machine. I cranked up logging to *:4,*webrtc*:7 and saw no errors, nor any informative warnings. I can share a log file of the failure if you’d like.
Question: How can I know after set-remote-description when I can call (emit) create-answer?
This problem also seems to afflict on-negotiation-needed and create-offer, but not as clearly as with set-remote-description and create-answer.
Thanks,
Stuart
