[GStreamer] cache video dimensions

• Component: Platform
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Philippe Normand]

There's no need to query the video-sink sink-pad caps every time in ::naturalSize(). We can simply cache this size every time the pad caps change and reuse the value by returning early from ::naturalSize().

The logic is a bit hard to follow here. Perhaps you could do this:

1. naturalSize() would be responsible for caching. m_videoSize.
2. In notifyPlayerOfVideo when you want to invalidate the cached video size simply do:

    m_videoSize = IntSize();

and then let naturalSize() initialize m_videoSize lazily.

That's not possible unfortunately because naturalSize() is const :/

That I can do yes! :)

In these situations, I typically just make the cache member mutable.
