Situation:
When I'm trying to mux jpegs to mkv file I'll get a zero sized file. I must put encode and decode elements between parser and muxer for correct output. When I'm muxing a h264 video with same code I'll get correct video file, that means the time setting of buffers should be OK(duration and pts parameter). Anyway after bad buffer settings is size of file not zero. Matroskamux requires on sink pad for "image/jpeg" only "width" and "heigth" capabilities but it looks like that this is not sufficient. Jpegparse is giving correct values and the program does not work after manual setting of this capabilities too.
Example of pipeline:
This pipeline doesn't work
appsrc ! "image/jpeg" ! jpegparse ! matroskamux ! filesink location=mjpeg.mkv
But this works
appsrc ! "image/jpeg" ! jpegparse ! avdec_mjpeg ! x264enc ! matroskamux ! filesink location=mjpeg.mkv
Example of code:
Working code, but with reencoding
app = new _App();
app->src = (GstAppSrc*)gst_element_factory_make ("appsrc", "source");
if(IsH264Frame(codecType))
app->parser = gst_element_factory_make("h264parse", "parser");

Question:
What I am doing wrong? Any ideas to solve this problem?
