(From update of attachment 41156)
Man, threading is hairy =). So, what's causing the deadlock, exactly, again?
The cond_wait in render and the mutex_lock in timeout_func racing when
gstreamer fires ::unlock? Then you fix it by avoiding creating the timeout and
doing the cond_wait in the first place if ::unlock() has fired on the element,
is that it? Can you add a comment block somewhere explaining this?
