GstStream

GstStream — Base class for stream objects

Types and Values

Includes

#include <gst/gst.h>

Description

A GstStream is a high-level object defining a stream of data which is, or can be, present in a GstPipeline.

It is defined by a unique identifier, a "Stream ID". A GstStream does not automatically imply the stream is present within a pipeline or element.

Any element that can introduce new streams in a pipeline should create the appropriate GstStream object, and can convey that object via the GST_EVENT_STREAM_START event and/or the GstStreamCollection.

Elements that do not modify the nature of the stream can add extra information on it (such as enrich the GstCaps, or GstTagList). This is typically done by parsing elements.

Functions

gst_stream_new ()

GstStream *
gst_stream_new (const gchar *stream_id,

Types and Values

struct GstStream

struct GstStream {
  GstObject object;

  const gchar *stream_id;
};

A high-level object representing a single stream. It might be backed, or not, by an actual flow of data in a pipeline (GstPad).

A GstStream does not care about data changes (such as decoding, encoding, parsing,...) as long as the underlying data flow corresponds to the same high-level flow (ex: a certain audio track).

A GstStream contains all the information pertinent to a stream, such as stream-id, tags, caps, type, ...

Elements can subclass a GstStream for internal usage (to contain information pertinent to streams of data).

Members

GstObject object;

   

const gchar *stream_id;

The Stream Identifier for this GstStream

 

struct GstStreamClass

struct GstStreamClass {
  GstObjectClass parent_class;
};

GstStream class structure

Members


enum GstStreamType

GstStreamType describes a high level classification set for flows of data in GstStream objects.

Note that this is a flag, and therefore users should not assume it will be a single value. Do not use the equality operator for checking whether a stream is of a certain type.

Members

GST_STREAM_TYPE_UNKNOWN

The stream is of unknown (unclassified) type.

 

GST_STREAM_TYPE_AUDIO

The stream is of audio data

 

GST_STREAM_TYPE_VIDEO

The stream carries video data

 

GST_STREAM_TYPE_CONTAINER

The stream is a muxed container type

 

GST_STREAM_TYPE_TEXT

The stream contains subtitle / subpicture data.
