45 * A function that will be called from gst_buffer_list_foreach(). The @buffer
46 * field will point to a the reference of the buffer at @idx.

51 * When @buffer is set to NULL, the item will be removed from the bufferlist.
52 * When @buffer has been made writable, the new buffer reference can be assigned
