136 * making changes to it, for example before calling gst_sample_set_buffer()

139 * is the sole owner and this function will return the sample object unchanged.

143 * caller will now own a reference to the new returned sample object.

146 * that it returns. Don't access the argument after calling this function unless
147 * you have an additional reference to it.
