25 * @short_description: Top-level bin with clocking and bus management
27 * @see_also: #GstElement, #GstBin, #GstClock, #GstBus
29 * A #GstPipeline is a special #GstBin used as the toplevel container for
30 * the filter graph. The #GstPipeline will manage the selection and
31 * distribution of a global #GstClock as well as provide a #GstBus to the
32 * application. It will also implement a default behavour for managing
33 * seek events (see gst_element_seek()).
35 * gst_pipeline_new() is used to create a pipeline. when you are done with
36 * the pipeline, use gst_object_unref() to free its resources including all
37 * added #GstElement objects (if not otherwise referenced).
39 * Elements are added and removed from the pipeline using the #GstBin
40 * methods like gst_bin_add() and gst_bin_remove() (see #GstBin).
42 * Before changing the state of the #GstPipeline (see #GstElement) a #GstBus
43 * can be retrieved with gst_pipeline_get_bus(). This bus can then be
44 * used to receive #GstMessage from the elements in the pipeline.
46 * By default, a #GstPipeline will automatically flush the pending #GstBus
47 * messages when going to the NULL state to ensure that no circular
48 * references exist when no messages are read from the #GstBus. This
49 * behaviour can be changed with gst_pipeline_set_auto_flush_bus().
51 * When the #GstPipeline performs the PAUSED to PLAYING state change it will
52 * select a clock for the elements. The clock selection algorithm will by
53 * default select a clock provided by an element that is most upstream
54 * (closest to the source). For live pipelines (ones that return
55 * #GST_STATE_CHANGE_NO_PREROLL from the gst_element_set_state() call) this
56 * will select the clock provided by the live source. For normal pipelines
57 * this will select a clock provided by the sinks (most likely the audio
58 * sink). If no element provides a clock, a default #GstSystemClock is used.
60 * The clock selection can be controlled with the gst_pipeline_use_clock()
61 * method, which will enforce a given clock on the pipeline. With
62 * gst_pipeline_auto_clock() the default clock selection algorithm can be
65 * A #GstPipeline maintains a stream time for the elements. The stream
66 * time is defined as the difference between the current clock time and
67 * the base time. When the pipeline goes to READY or a flushing seek is
68 * performed on it, the stream time is reset to 0. When the pipeline is
69 * set from PLAYING to PAUSED, the current clock time is sampled and used to
70 * configure the base time for the elements when the pipeline is set
71 * to PLAYING again. This default behaviour can be changed with the
72 * gst_pipeline_set_new_stream_time() method.
74 * When sending a flushing seek event to a GstPipeline (see
75 * gst_element_seek()), it will make sure that the pipeline is properly
76 * PAUSED and resumed as well as set the new stream time to 0 when the

835 * the pipeline goes from READY to NULL state
837 * Usually, when a pipeline goes from READY to NULL state, it automatically
838 * flushes all pending messages on the bus, which is done for refcounting
839 * purposes, to break circular references.
841 * This means that applications that update state using (async) bus messages
842 * (e.g. do certain things when a pipeline goes from PAUSED to READY) might
843 * not get to see messages when the pipeline is shut down, because they might
844 * be flushed before they can be dispatched in the main thread. This behaviour
845 * can be disabled using this function.
847 * It is important that all messages on the bus are handled when the
848 * automatic flushing is disabled else memory leaks will be introduced.
