pad leak during failures (1.09 KB, patch)

Description Vineeth 2015-07-10 06:36:00 UTC 
In case of gst_element_add_pad
when the pad being added already has a parent or same name already exists,
it fails, but gst_element_add_pad is supposed to take the reference of the buffer and the caller assumes so, which will lead to leaking of pad.

unref'ing the pad on failures.

Same goes for gst_bin_add() btw :) Want to provide a patch for both?
