Bug 146720 – [GStreamer] Layout tests hls-accessiblity-describes-video.html, video-controller-getStartDate.html and media/accessiblity-describes-video.html fail

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: WONTFIX
• Component: Media

[Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez]

The following layout tests fail on platform GTK since they were added on r184799 <http://trac.webkit.org/r184799>:

  http/tests/media/hls/hls-accessiblity-describes-video.html [ Failure ]
  http/tests/media/hls/video-controller-getStartDate.html [ Failure ]


The possible cause is a missing implementation on platform GTK

[Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez]

And also the following test:

  media/accessiblity-describes-video.html [ Failure ]

MediaPlayerPrivateAVFoundationObjC::updateAudioTracks() calls player()->preferredAudioCharacteristics() and takes the result into consideration; the gstreamer code doesn't do anything like it.

Also, the GStreamer HLS demuxer doesn't handle the CHARACTERISTICS value of streams. I think that should be sent downstream as tags so they can be handled by the app...

HLS is disabled since https://commits.webkit.org/258717@main.
