gst_video_event_new_still_frame ()

GstEvent *          gst_video_event_new_still_frame     (gboolean in_still);

Creates a new Still Frame event. If in_still is TRUE, then the event represents the start of a still frame sequence. If it is FALSE, then the event ends a still frame sequence.

To parse an event created by gst_video_event_new_still_frame() use gst_video_event_parse_still_frame().

Parse a GstEvent, identify if it is a Still Frame event, and return the still-frame state from the event if it is. If the event represents the start of a still frame, the in_still variable will be set to TRUE, otherwise FALSE. It is OK to pass NULL for the in_still variable order to just check whether the event is a valid still-frame event.

Create a still frame event using gst_video_event_new_still_frame()

Creates a new downstream force key unit event. A downstream force key unit event can be sent down the pipeline to request downstream elements to produce a key unit. A downstream force key unit event must also be sent when handling an upstream force key unit event to notify downstream that the latter has been handled.

To parse an event created by gst_video_event_new_downstream_force_key_unit() use gst_video_event_parse_downstream_force_key_unit().

timestamp :

the timestamp of the buffer that starts a new key unit

stream_time :

the stream_time of the buffer that starts a new key unit

running_time :

the running_time of the buffer that starts a new key unit

all_headers :

TRUE to produce headers when starting a new key unit

count :

integer that can be used to number key units

Returns :

The new GstEvent

gst_video_event_is_force_key_unit ()

gboolean            gst_video_event_is_force_key_unit   (GstEvent *event);

Checks if an event is a force key unit event. Returns true for both upstream and downstream force key unit events.

event :

A GstEvent to check

Returns :

TRUE if the event is a valid force key unit event

                                                         guint *count);

Get running-time, all-headers and count in the force key unit event. See gst_video_event_new_upstream_force_key_unit() for a full description of the upstream force key unit event.

Create an upstream force key unit event using gst_video_event_new_upstream_force_key_unit()

event :

A GstEvent to parse

running_time :

A pointer to the running_time in the event. [out]

all_headers :

A pointer to the all_headers flag in the event. [out]

count :

A pointer to the count field in the event. [out]

Returns :

TRUE if the event is a valid upstream force-key-unit event. FALSE if not
