Issue: nvstreammux SIGSEGV when reusing the same pipeline for a 2nd file after EOS (DS 9.1; works on DS 7.1) Summary We run a single DeepStream pipeline (filesrc → h265parse → nvv4l2decoder → nvstreammux → nvinfer → ... → encoder → filesink) and reuse it sequentially for multiple H.265 files: after a file reaches EOS we go GST_STATE_NULL → READY → PLAYING, change filesrc/filesink locations, and play the next file. This works fine on DeepStream 7.1 (validated with 11 files / 3 resolution groups). On DeepStream 9.1 the same program segfaults at the 2nd file of the first group, inside the closed nvstreammux (libnvdsgst_multistream.so) while the decoder re-negotiates caps into the mux. We believe nvstreammux cannot be safely reused after an EOS'd source in 9.1 (regression vs 7.1, or a behavior change). Since the nvstreammux source is now in this repo under src/gst-plugins/gst-nvmultistream2, we'd like to report it here. Environment Item Crashes (DS 9.1 — dev box) Wo
