Hi,
From your attachment implementation.c, found
vaapiencoder = gst_element_factory_make ("x264enc", NULL);
Maybe typo. Suppose you want “vaapiencode_h264”. Anyway,  I just tried
$ gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! 
video/x-raw,format=NV12,width=320,height=240,framerate=30/1 ! vaapipostproc ! 
queue ! vaapiencode_h264 !  fakesink
Failed in latest master branch. This issue caused by gstvaapiencoder need 
strict format check but vaapipostproc with format ‘Encoded’(VASurface). After 
adding a specific ‘format’ for vaapipostproc, encoder works. You can take a try 
.
$ gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! 
video/x-raw,format=NV12,width=320,height=240,framerate=30/1 ! vaapipostproc 
format=nv12 ! queue ! vaapiencode_h264 !  fakesink


Thanks,
Wind

Subject: [Libva] Problem with vaapipostproc element

Hello,

I have a problem related to element called vaapipostproc. The problem is as 
follows:

I have a pipeline and for specified time intervals I attempt to change pipeline 
dynamically in order to change write location of the filesink. I have 
implemented this functionality and everything works well in case I do not use 
vaapipostproc element. If I use vaapipostproc element, the pipeline crashes 
unexpectedly. An error message is thrown from the element vaapipostproc: 
"failed to create output video buffer" at the immediate point the pipeline is 
changed dynamically.

My pipeline change strategy is as follows:
0. Create a bin and place mux and filesink elements inside it. Moreover create 
a queue element before this bin.
1. For specified intervals, fire a clock event and catch it in a handler
2. In clock handler place a blocking probe to queue's source pad and register a 
blocking data handler
3. In blocking data handler unlink queue and bin and send an EOS event to bin's 
sink pad.
4. Handle EOS event on bin element. In this handler, destroy bin, create a new 
bin with an updated filesink location connect bin with queue. And remove the 
blocking probe.

This strategy for dynamic pipeline changing works well when I do not use 
vaapipostproc element. But I want to do encoding process on GPU and using 
vaapipostproc is a mandatory.

I have inspected the source code  gstvaapipostproc.c for element vaapipostproc 
and It seem the problem is related to function named as GstBuffer * 
create_output_buffer(GstVaapiPostproc*).

You can find output messages when GST_DEBUG environment variable is set to 4. 
In addition to this, you can also find my implementation to change the pipeline 
dynamically. The implementation won't compile, I just want to share a 
pseudo-code for your well understanding of the implementation.

I want to share the most interesting part of the out.log file:

How can I solve this problem? Any help will be appreciated.
