30 * @short_description: Structure describing the configured region of interest
32 * @see_also: #GstEvent
34 * This helper structure holds the relevant values for tracking the region of
35 * interest in a media file, called a segment.
37 * The structure can be used for two purposes:
39 * <listitem><para>performing seeks (handling seek events)</para></listitem>
40 * <listitem><para>tracking playback regions (handling newsegment events)</para></listitem>
43 * The segment is usually configured by the application with a seek event which
44 * is propagated upstream and eventually handled by an element that performs the seek.
46 * The configured segment is then propagated back downstream with a newsegment event.
47 * This information is then used to clip media to the segment boundaries.
49 * A segment structure is initialized with gst_segment_init(), which takes a #GstFormat
50 * that will be used as the format of the segment values. The segment will be configured
51 * with a start value of 0 and a stop/duration of -1, which is undefined. The default
52 * rate and applied_rate is 1.0.
54 * If the segment is used for managing seeks, the segment duration should be set with
55 * gst_segment_set_duration(). The public duration field contains the duration of the
56 * segment. When using the segment for seeking, the start and time members should
57 * normally be left to their default 0 value. The stop position is left to -1 unless
58 * explicitly configured to a different value after a seek event.
60 * The current position in the segment should be set with the gst_segment_set_last_stop().
61 * The public last_stop field contains the last set stop position in the segment.
63 * For elements that perform seeks, the current segment should be updated with the
64 * gst_segment_set_seek() and the values from the seek event. This method will update
65 * all the segment fields. The last_pos field will contain the new playback position.
66 * If the cur_type was different from GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE, playback continues from
67 * the last_pos position, possibly with updated flags or rate.
69 * For elements that want to use #GstSegment to track the playback region, use
70 * gst_segment_set_newsegment() to update the segment fields with the information from
71 * the newsegment event. The gst_segment_clip() method can be used to check and clip
72 * the media data to the segment boundaries.
74 * For elements that want to synchronize to the pipeline clock, gst_segment_to_running_time()
75 * can be used to convert a timestamp to a value that can be used to synchronize
76 * to the clock. This function takes into account all accumulated segments as well as
77 * any rate or applied_rate conversions.
79 * For elements that need to perform operations on media data in stream_time,
80 * gst_segment_to_stream_time() can be used to convert a timestamp and the segment
81 * info to stream time (which is always between 0 and the duration of the stream).
