cdparanoia uses events now to do the seeking, it defines a new seek
format (tracks). seeking would work something like this now:

track_format = gst_format_get_by_nick("track");

gst_pad_send_event (cdparanoia_src, 
                    gst_event_new_seek (
                      track_format |
                      GST_SEEK_METHOD_SET |
                      GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLUSH,
                      1));

you can set start and stop track with gst_event_new_segment_seek()
sectors is specified with a seek to UNITS (need to fix that)
track duration is apparently not implemented yet.



                      

event = gst_event_new_segment_seek (gst_format_get_by_nick ("track") |
						    GST_SEEK_METHOD_SET |
						    GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLUSH,
					            track, track);

gst_pad_send_event (ms->priv->source_pad, event);

This is what I'm doing now, and it segfaults .. the source cdparanoia
element has not yet been added to a bin or connected to anything.

Going to attach a gst-mask=-1 log.

It would be nice if you could get a backtrace of the crash.

Oh, is track 0 when it crashes?
I think cdparanoia counts tracks from 1

it crashes with any track

and here's the bt:

+ Trace 29351

Wim reports that this is fixed, I leave it for a couple of days but
unless someone protests I will close it.

Nothing heard so closing
