+The different types of seek events. When constructing a seek event a format,
+a seek method and optional flags are OR-ed together. The seek event is then
+inserted into the graph with #gst_pad_send_event() or #gst_element_send_event().
+
+Following example illustrates how to insert a seek event (1 second in the stream)
+in a pipeline.
+<example>
+<title>Insertion of a seek event into a pipeline</title>
+ <programlisting>
+ gboolean res;
+ GstEvent *event;
+
+ event = gst_event_new_seek (
+ GST_FORMAT_TIME | /* seek on time */
+ GST_SEEK_METHOD_SET | /* set the absolute position */
+ GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLUSH, /* flush any pending data */
+ 1 * GST_SECOND); /* the seek offset (1 second) */
+
+ res = gst_element_send_event (GST_ELEMENT (osssink), event);
+ if (!res) {
+ g_warning ("seek failed");
+ }
+ </programlisting>
