<p>This element wraps a muxer and a sink, and starts a new file when the mux
contents are about to cross a threshold of maximum size of maximum time,
splitting at video keyframe boundaries. Exactly one input video stream
is required, with as many accompanying audio and subtitle streams as
desired.</p>
<p>By default, it uses mp4mux and filesink, but they can be changed via
the 'muxer' and 'sink' properties.</p>
<p>The minimum file size is 1 GOP, however - so limits may be overrun if the
distance between any 2 keyframes is larger than the limits.</p>
<p>The splitting process is driven by the video stream contents, and
the video stream must contain closed GOPs for the output file parts
to be played individually correctly.</p>
