change h264Parser caps while pipe is running

[Patrick Fischer]

Hello

is it possible to change the caps of the h264Parser during runtime?
I would like to change the "stream-format" from avc to byte-stream at runtime to get NAL units at the output.

The pipe is in the running state:

i have tested

...

gst_element_link_many(data.h264Parser, data.h264parseCapsfilter, data.videoAppSink, NULL);
...

GstCaps *h264ParserFiltercaps = gst_caps_new_simple ("video/x-h264",
                                            "stream-format", G_TYPE_STRING, "byte-stream",  //  <--- change from avc to byte-stream
                                            "parsed", G_TYPE_BOOLEAN, "true",
                                            "alignment", G_TYPE_STRING, "au",
                                            NULL);
g_object_set (G_OBJECT (data.h264parseCapsfilter), "caps", h264ParserFiltercaps, NULL);
gst_caps_unref (h264ParserFiltercaps);


did't change the stream-format :-(

regards

Patrick

I don't think this element handle renegotiation event. H264 is a
complex format and h264parse need to maintain a state, so renegotiation
might be a complex task.

May be you should consider adding a tee before h264parse, and have both the
formats concurrently
