terminal output wine-staging-6.1.r2.g32b29ad4.log

Not sure if the problem is specifically related to Gstreamer, the
`mfplat-streaming-support` patchset, or opens the problem in Wine itself.

The game freezes, if you load the level, wait until the video on the first
billboard will be played 1 time (for this one it is 22 seconds and the zone
with it is close enough to the starting point, so that the video starts playing
almost immediately. You can try to rely by the in-game timer or verbose
terminal output), and then try to end/leave the zone (continue the game by
going to Cybervoid or exit to the Main menu).

I did some tests and found that using Wine + `mfplat-streaming-support` from
Staging is enough to reproduce the problem.

Inside the game, videos on billboards are played only 2 times (I'm not sure if
this is correct because in this case, you will not even have the opportunity to
see them, while you get to them in the game way), but despite the fact that the
video is repeated a second time, the game will definitely freeze if you tried
to exit at that moment or when it finishes showing the video a second time and
stops.

So, the minimal steps for repro:
1. will load into the Echoes level.
2. do not move and wait until the in-game timer (lower right corner) is more
than 23 seconds.
3. press Esc and exit to the Main menu.

I'm attachig some (add +timestamp,+tid,warn+mfplat and GST_DEBUG="3") terminal
output
timestamp 330.821 - loading on the level
timestamp ~332-354 - this 22 seconds video (PROPAGANDA_FLASH6.mp4) (already
after 354 the game definitely will be freeze if try exit)
timestamp 372.887 - exit to the Main menu and hang
also at the beginning the game plays 2 intro videos
gstreamer: 1.18.3 (patched for mfplat-streaming-support)
wine version: wine-staging-6.1.r2.g32b29ad4
game version: 0.32091.426

(I suppose it is possible to shorten or replace the video if the wait 22
seconds is too long for the terminal output)

I also found that removing Ghostrunner/Content/Movies/LA/PROPAGANDA_FLASH6.mp4
(first billboard)
Ghostrunner/Content/Movies/LA/PROPAGANDA_ANIM_DRONE2M.mp4 (it video for second
billboard what is next on this level) - helps as workaround. 
(I was able to finish the whole game, after deleting these two files. There
were no more such problems with video on billboards at other levels.)

It also seems that the game does not swear at the substitution of these video
files, so I tried:
- replace video with a adjacent file from the same directory.
- compress video with cfr=28 (file size less than 2MB)
-
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine/commit/3af15c54a6d8c781cbe32faa61b274ec003a7728
- delete audio stream.
but none of this seems to help.

I only have the Epic Games Store version of the game. (the launcher requires:
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="libglesv2=d" wine64 EpicGamesLauncher.exe -opengl
-SkipBuildPatchPrereq)
Also to fully complete the game, in addition to mfplat-streaming-support, I had
to use esync and vkd3d-proton (third-party dll). But I managed to reproduce the
problem also on wined3d (dx11 mode) (but this is complicated by the fact that
textures are not rendered on wined3d (opengl) so wined3d (vulkan) will
sometimes be preferable because he has no such problem) and on dxvk
(third-party dll).

Please check it.
