Description Sebastien Cote 2004-11-29 16:00:33 UTC 
The avidemux sends GST_EVENT_DISCONTINUOUS for valid AVI files. This event comes
from gst_riff_peek_head() in riff-read.c:

240       /* read */
241       while (gst_bytestream_peek_bytes (riff->bs, &data, 8) != 8) {
242         if (!gst_riff_read_handle_event (riff))
243           return FALSE;
244       }

If you transcode an AVI to MP3, lame forwards the DISCONT event to the filesink
so you get a huge output file.

Confirmed, it shouldn't do that - it already sends intended disconts manually.
Can you provide a patch?

This gets rid of my problem, but I'm not sure it is right. Maybe checking for
DISCONT should be done in gst_riff_peek_head()?

applied, thanks.
