gstaudiometa — Buffer metadata for audio downmix matrix handling

Functions

Types and Values

Includes

#include <gst/audio/gstaudiometa.h>

Description

GstAudioDownmixMeta defines an audio downmix matrix to be send along with audio buffers. These functions in this module help to create and attach the meta as well as extracting it.

Functions

gst_buffer_add_audio_downmix_meta ()

GstAudioDownmixMeta *
gst_buffer_add_audio_downmix_meta (GstBuffer *buffer,
                                   const GstAudioChannelPosition *from_position,
                                   gint from_channels,
                                   const GstAudioChannelPosition *to_position,
                                   gint to_channels,
                                   const gfloat **matrix);

Attaches GstAudioDownmixMeta metadata to buffer with the given parameters.

matrix is an two-dimensional array of to_channels times from_channels coefficients, i.e. the i-th output channels is constructed by multiplicating the input channels with the coefficients in matrix [i] and taking the sum of the results.

Parameters

buffer

a GstBuffer

 

from_position

the channel positions of the source.

[array length=from_channels]

from_channels

The number of channels of the source

 

to_position

the channel positions of the destination.

[array length=to_channels]

to_channels

The number of channels of the destination

 

matrix

The matrix coefficients.

 

Returns

the GstAudioDownmixMeta on buffer .

gst_buffer_get_audio_clipping_meta()

#define gst_buffer_get_audio_clipping_meta(b) ((GstAudioClippingMeta*)gst_buffer_get_meta((b), GST_AUDIO_CLIPPING_META_API_TYPE))

Types and Values

struct GstAudioDownmixMeta

struct GstAudioDownmixMeta {
  GstMeta      meta;

  GstAudioChannelPosition *from_position;
  GstAudioChannelPosition *to_position;
  gint        from_channels, to_channels;
  gfloat       **matrix;
};

Extra buffer metadata describing audio downmixing matrix. This metadata is attached to audio buffers and contains a matrix to downmix the buffer number of channels to channels .

matrix is an two-dimensional array of to_channels times from_channels coefficients, i.e. the i-th output channels is constructed by multiplicating the input channels with the coefficients in matrix [i] and taking the sum of the results.

Members

GstAudioChannelPosition *from_position;

GstAudioChannelPosition *to_position;

the channel positions of the destination

 

gint from_channels;

the number of channels of the source

 

gint to_channels;

the number of channels of the destination

 

gfloat **matrix;

the matrix coefficients.

 

struct GstAudioClippingMeta

struct GstAudioClippingMeta {
  GstMeta   meta;

  GstFormat format;
  guint64   start;
  guint64   end;
};

Extra buffer metadata describing how much audio has to be clipped from the start or end of a buffer. This is used for compressed formats, where the first frame usually has some additional samples due to encoder and decoder delays, and the last frame usually has some additional samples to be able to fill the complete last frame.

This is used to ensure that decoded data in the end has the same amount of samples, and multiply decoded streams can be gaplessly concatenated.

Note: If clipping of the start is done by adjusting the segment, this meta has to be dropped from buffers as otherwise clipping could happen twice.
