Re: How to reuse pipeline to read different m p4 files. Few questions.

Hi, thank you for reply!
 
Here is my code for now:
   foreach (var videoFile in videoFiles)
            {
                fileSrc["location"] = videoFile;
 
                readerPipe.SetState(State.Playing);
 
                var step = 1; //fn тоже с 1 начинается
                while (step < frameNumber)
                {
                    appSink.PullSample();
                    step++;
                }
 
                Debug.SetDefaultThreshold(DebugLevel.Debug);
 
                readerPipe.SetState(State.Null);
                fileSrc.Unlink(decodebin);
 
                fileSrc.Link(decodebin);
            }
        }
 
Still it hangs on SetState(State.Null) with continous messages:
0:00:48.596434300 DEBUG             bufferpool gstbufferpool.c:312:do_alloc_buffer:<d3d11bufferpool2> max buffers reached
0:00:48.597077100DEBUG               GST_POLL gstpoll.c:1414:gst_poll_wait: 000001F550D09AE0: timeout :99:99:99.999999999
 
It seems to be the reason of hang behaviour. I’ve added queue before appsink (filesrc ! decodebin ! queue ! appsink),
but still no luck.
