Overwrite option for filesink
I need filesink
property which controls does the pipeline fail if the file to write to already exists.
Something like overwrite
property (set to TRUE
by default) comes to mind first.
Even though judging from the title #955 (closed) may look as proposing that, what is actually requested there is mode for overwriting the file from the beginning unchanged (currently only either truncating or appending to the file is supported), not mode in which the pipeline will fail if the file exists. However, commits from the related merge request (!1532 (merged)) include new file-mode
property which specifies file opening mode.
When !1532 (merged) is finished and merged I will add file opening mode in which opening of the file will fail (and hence also the pipeline) if the file exists.
