Description

A GstSample is a small object containing data, a type, timing and extra arbitrary information.

Functions

gst_sample_get_buffer ()

GstBuffer *
gst_sample_get_buffer (GstSample *sample);

Get the buffer associated with sample

Parameters

sample

a GstSample

 

Returns

the buffer of sample or NULL when there is no buffer. The buffer remains valid as long as sample is valid. If you need to hold on to it for longer than that, take a ref to the buffer with gst_buffer_ref().

[transfer none][nullable]


gst_sample_get_buffer_list ()

GstBufferList *
gst_sample_get_buffer_list (GstSample *sample);

Get the buffer list associated with sample

Parameters

sample

a GstSample

 

Returns

the buffer list of sample or NULL when there is no buffer list. The buffer list remains valid as long as sample is valid. If you need to hold on to it for longer than that, take a ref to the buffer list with gst_mini_object_ref().

[transfer none][nullable]

Since: 1.6


gst_sample_get_caps ()

GstCaps *
gst_sample_get_caps (GstSample *sample);

Get the caps associated with sample

Parameters

sample

a GstSample

 

Returns

the caps of sample or NULL when there is no caps. The caps remain valid as long as sample is valid. If you need to hold on to the caps for longer than that, take a ref to the caps with gst_caps_ref().

[transfer none][nullable]


gst_sample_get_info ()

const GstStructure *
gst_sample_get_info (GstSample *sample);

Get extra information associated with sample .

Parameters

sample

a GstSample

 

Returns

the extra info of sample . The info remains valid as long as sample is valid.

[transfer none]


gst_sample_get_segment ()

GstSegment *
gst_sample_get_segment (GstSample *sample);

Get the segment associated with sample

Parameters

sample

a GstSample

 

Returns

the segment of sample . The segment remains valid as long as sample is valid.

[transfer none]


gst_sample_set_buffer_list ()

void
gst_sample_set_buffer_list (GstSample *sample,
                            GstBufferList *buffer_list);

Set the buffer list associated with sample

Parameters

sample

a GstSample

 

buffer_list

a GstBufferList

 

Since: 1.6


gst_sample_new ()

GstSample *
gst_sample_new (GstBuffer *buffer,
                GstCaps *caps,
                const GstSegment *segment,
                GstStructure *info);

Create a new GstSample with the provided details.

Free-function: gst_sample_unref

Parameters

buffer

a GstBuffer, or NULL.

[transfer none][allow-none]

caps

a GstCaps, or NULL.

[transfer none][allow-none]

segment

a GstSegment, or NULL.

[transfer none][allow-none]

info

a GstStructure, or NULL.

[transfer full][allow-none]

Returns

the new GstSample. gst_sample_unref() after usage.

[transfer full]


gst_sample_ref ()

GstSample *
gst_sample_ref (GstSample *sample);

Increases the refcount of the given sample by one.

Parameters

sample

a GstSample

 

Returns

sample .

[transfer full]


gst_sample_unref ()

void
gst_sample_unref (GstSample *sample);

Decreases the refcount of the sample. If the refcount reaches 0, the sample will be freed.

Parameters

sample

a GstSample.

[transfer full]

gst_sample_copy ()

GstSample *
gst_sample_copy (const GstSample *buf);

Create a copy of the given sample. This will also make a newly allocated copy of the data the source sample contains.

Parameters

buf

a GstSample.

 

Returns

a new copy of buf .

Since: 1.2

Types and Values

GstSample

typedef struct _GstSample GstSample;

The opaque structure of a GstSample. A sample contains a typed memory block and the associated timing information. It is mainly used to exchange buffers with an application.
