Hi,

with this settings in my app:

g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"resend-streamheader",FALSE,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"sync-method",2,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"recover-policy",3,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"buffers-soft-max",48,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"sync",FALSE,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"timeout",10000000000,NULL);

I get

gstmultifdsink.c:2329:gst_multi_fd_sink_queue_buffer:<multisink> [fd    14] client 0x7f3c18002540 is too slow, removing

while with this settings:

g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"resend-streamheader",FALSE,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"sync-method",2,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"recover-policy",3,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"buffers-max",96,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"buffers-soft-max",48,NULL);
g_object_set(G_OBJECT (multisink),"sync",FALSE,NULL);

in the same test environment I can see the stream for hours, so timeout property seems broken, please note that when multifdsink disconnect the client the video is not freezed (and the date/time overlay show no delay) so the client is properly reading the stream
