Description

GstAudioClock makes it easy for elements to implement a GstClock, they simply need to provide a function that returns the current clock time.

This object is internally used to implement the clock in GstBaseAudioSink.

Details

struct GstAudioClock

struct GstAudioClock;

Opaque GstAudioClock.


GstAudioClockGetTimeFunc ()

GstClockTime        (*GstAudioClockGetTimeFunc)         (GstClock *clock,
                                                         gpointer user_data);

This function will be called whenever the current clock time needs to be calculated. If this function returns GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE, the last reported time will be returned by the clock.

clock :

the GstAudioClock

user_data :

user data

Returns :

the current time or GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE if the previous time should be used.

gst_audio_clock_new ()

GstClock *          gst_audio_clock_new                 (const gchar *name,
                                                         GstAudioClockGetTimeFunc func,
                                                         gpointer user_data);

Create a new GstAudioClock instance. Whenever the clock time should be calculated it will call func with user_data. When func returns GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE, the clock will return the last reported time.

name :

the name of the clock

func :

a function

user_data :

user data

Returns :

a new GstAudioClock casted to a GstClock.

gst_audio_clock_new_full ()

GstClock *          gst_audio_clock_new_full            (const gchar *name,
                                                         GstAudioClockGetTimeFunc func,
                                                         gpointer user_data,
                                                         GDestroyNotify destroy_notify);

Create a new GstAudioClock instance. Whenever the clock time should be calculated it will call func with user_data. When func returns GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE, the clock will return the last reported time.

name :

the name of the clock

func :

a function

user_data :

user data

destroy_notify :

GDestroyNotify for user_data

Returns :

a new GstAudioClock casted to a GstClock.

gst_audio_clock_adjust ()

GstClockTime        gst_audio_clock_adjust              (GstClock *clock,
                                                         GstClockTime time);

Adjust time with the internal offset of the audio clock.

clock :

a GstAudioClock

time :

a GstClockTime

Returns :

time adjusted with the internal offset.

Since 0.10.23


gst_audio_clock_get_time ()

GstClockTime        gst_audio_clock_get_time            (GstClock *clock);

Report the time as returned by the GstAudioClockGetTimeFunc without applying any offsets.

clock :

a GstAudioClock

Returns :

the time as reported by the time function of the audio clock

Since 0.10.23


gst_audio_clock_reset ()

void                gst_audio_clock_reset               (GstAudioClock *clock,
                                                         GstClockTime time);

Inform clock that future calls to GstAudioClockGetTimeFunc will return values starting from time. The clock will update an internal offset to make sure that future calls to internal_time will return an increasing result as required by the GstClock object.

clock :

a GstAudioClock

time :

a GstClockTime

gst_audio_clock_invalidate ()

void                gst_audio_clock_invalidate          (GstClock *clock);

Invalidate the clock function. Call this function when the provided GstAudioClockGetTimeFunc cannot be called anymore, for example, when the user_data becomes invalid.

After calling this function, clock will return the last returned time for the rest of its lifetime.

clock :

a GstAudioClock
