recording suspend/resume

[mattes]

I am looking for a way to pause and resume an active live recording?
While in pause/suspend mode the frames should be discarded.
Is there a way of achieving that with gstreamer?

Possibly a gstreamer plugin or so. Maybe something I could add
to my pipeline and control whenever I want to suspend the recording
and resume again.

The idea is, instead of dealing with multiple video snippet (aka. playlist),
to have one continuous media file.

Any pointers are appreciated?
Mat

I do this with a buffer probe as part of the boxtream project, which can
currently be downloaded from :

  http://depot.univ-nc.nc/sources/

I use it while sending streams to an IceCast2 server while at the same
time saving the stream to disk on the encoder side.

The pause() method in encoder.py ensures that when the end user presses
the "Pause" button, only the disk recording is paused, but not the live
feed.
