GstEvent
The event class provides factory methods to construct events for sending and functions to query (parse) received events.
Events are usually created with gst_event_new_*() which takes event-type specific parameters as arguments. To send an event application will usually use gst_element_send_event and elements will use gst_pad_send_event or gst_pad_push_event. The event should be unreffed with gst_event_unref if it has not been sent.
Events that have been received can be parsed with their respective gst_event_parse_*() functions. It is valid to pass NULL for unwanted details.
Events are passed between elements in parallel to the data stream. Some events are serialized with buffers, others are not. Some events only travel downstream, others only upstream. Some events can travel both upstream and downstream.
The events are used to signal special conditions in the datastream such as EOS (end of stream) or the start of a new stream-segment. Events are also used to flush the pipeline of any pending data.
Most of the event API is used inside plugins. Applications usually only construct and use seek events. To do that gst_event_new_seek is used to create a seek event. It takes the needed parameters to specify seeking time and mode.
GstEvent *event;
gboolean result;
...
// construct a seek event to play the media from second 2 to 5, flush
// the pipeline to decrease latency.
event = gst_event_new_seek (1.0,
GST_FORMAT_TIME,
GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLUSH,
GST_SEEK_TYPE_SET, 2 * GST_SECOND,
GST_SEEK_TYPE_SET, 5 * GST_SECOND);
...
result = gst_element_send_event (pipeline, event);
if (!result)
g_warning ("seek failed");

gst_event_new_protection
GstEvent * gst_event_new_protection (const gchar * system_id, GstBuffer * data, const gchar * origin)
Creates a new event containing information specific to a particular protection system (uniquely identified by system_id), by which that protection system can acquire key(s) to decrypt a protected stream.
In order for a decryption element to decrypt media protected using a specific system, it first needs all the protection system specific information necessary to acquire the decryption key(s) for that stream. The functions defined here enable this information to be passed in events from elements that extract it (e.g., ISOBMFF demuxers, MPEG DASH demuxers) to protection decrypter elements that use it.
Events containing protection system specific information are created using gst_event_new_protection, and they can be parsed by downstream elements using gst_event_parse_protection.
In Common Encryption, protection system specific information may be located within ISOBMFF files, both in movie (moov) boxes and movie fragment (moof) boxes; it may also be contained in ContentProtection elements within MPEG DASH MPDs. The events created by gst_event_new_protection contain data identifying from which of these locations the encapsulated protection system specific information originated. This origin information is required as some protection systems use different encodings depending upon where the information originates.
The events returned by gst_event_new_protection are implemented in such a way as to ensure that the most recently-pushed protection info event of a particular origin and system_id will be stuck to the output pad of the sending element.
Parameters:
system_id
(
[transfer: none])
–
a string holding a UUID that uniquely identifies a protection system.
data
(
[transfer: none])
–
a GstBuffer holding protection system specific information. The reference count of the buffer will be incremented by one.

gst_event_new_qos
GstEvent * gst_event_new_qos (GstQOSType type, gdouble proportion, GstClockTimeDiff diff, GstClockTime timestamp)
Allocate a new qos event with the given values. The QOS event is generated in an element that wants an upstream element to either reduce or increase its rate because of high/low CPU load or other resource usage such as network performance or throttling. Typically sinks generate these events for each buffer they receive.
type indicates the reason for the QoS event. GST_QOS_TYPE_OVERFLOW is used when a buffer arrived in time or when the sink cannot keep up with the upstream datarate. GST_QOS_TYPE_UNDERFLOW is when the sink is not receiving buffers fast enough and thus has to drop late buffers. GST_QOS_TYPE_THROTTLE is used when the datarate is artificially limited by the application, for example to reduce power consumption.
proportion indicates the real-time performance of the streaming in the element that generated the QoS event (usually the sink). The value is generally computed based on more long term statistics about the streams timestamps compared to the clock. A value < 1.0 indicates that the upstream element is producing data faster than real-time. A value > 1.0 indicates that the upstream element is not producing data fast enough. 1.0 is the ideal proportion value. The proportion value can safely be used to lower or increase the quality of the element.
diff is the difference against the clock in running time of the last buffer that caused the element to generate the QOS event. A negative value means that the buffer with timestamp arrived in time. A positive value indicates how late the buffer with timestamp was. When throttling is enabled, diff will be set to the requested throttling interval.
timestamp is the timestamp of the last buffer that cause the element to generate the QOS event. It is expressed in running time and thus an ever increasing value.
The upstream element can use the diff and timestamp values to decide whether to process more buffers. For positive diff, all buffers with timestamp <= timestamp + diff will certainly arrive late in the sink as well. A (negative) diff value so that timestamp + diff would yield a result smaller than 0 is not allowed.
The application can use general event probes to intercept the QoS event and implement custom application specific QoS handling.
Parameters:
type
–
the QoS type
proportion
–
the proportion of the qos message
diff
–
The time difference of the last Clock sync
timestamp
–
The timestamp of the buffer

The value is generally computed based on more long term statistics about the streams timestamps compared to the clock. A value < 1.0 indicates that the upstream element is producing data faster than real-time. A value > 1.0 indicates that the upstream element is not producing data fast enough. 1.0 is the ideal proportion value. The proportion value can safely be used to lower or increase the quality of the element.
diff is the difference against the clock in running time of the last buffer that caused the element to generate the QOS event. A negative value means that the buffer with timestamp arrived in time. A positive value indicates how late the buffer with timestamp was. When throttling is enabled, diff will be set to the requested throttling interval.
timestamp is the timestamp of the last buffer that cause the element to generate the QOS event. It is expressed in running time and thus an ever increasing value.
The upstream element can use the diff and timestamp values to decide whether to process more buffers. For positive diff, all buffers with timestamp <= timestamp + diff will certainly arrive late in the sink as well. A (negative) diff value so that timestamp + diff would yield a result smaller than 0 is not allowed.
The application can use general event probes to intercept the QoS event and implement custom application specific QoS handling.
Parameters:
the QoS type
the proportion of the qos message
The time difference of the last Clock sync
The timestamp of the buffer
a new QOS event.
Gst.Event.new_qos
def Gst.Event.new_qos (type, proportion, diff, timestamp):
#python wrapper for 'gst_event_new_qos'
Allocate a new qos event with the given values. The QOS event is generated in an element that wants an upstream element to either reduce or increase its rate because of high/low CPU load or other resource usage such as network performance or throttling. Typically sinks generate these events for each buffer they receive.
type indicates the reason for the QoS event. Gst.QOSType.OVERFLOW is used when a buffer arrived in time or when the sink cannot keep up with the upstream datarate. Gst.QOSType.UNDERFLOW is when the sink is not receiving buffers fast enough and thus has to drop late buffers. Gst.QOSType.THROTTLE is used when the datarate is artificially limited by the application, for example to reduce power consumption.
proportion indicates the real-time performance of the streaming in the element that generated the QoS event (usually the sink). The value is generally computed based on more long term statistics about the streams timestamps compared to the clock. A value < 1.0 indicates that the upstream element is producing data faster than real-time. A value > 1.0 indicates that the upstream element is not producing data fast enough. 1.0 is the ideal proportion value. The proportion value can safely be used to lower or increase the quality of the element.
diff is the difference against the clock in running time of the last buffer that caused the element to generate the QOS event. A negative value means that the buffer with timestamp arrived in time. A positive value indicates how late the buffer with timestamp was. When throttling is enabled, diff will be set to the requested throttling interval.
timestamp is the timestamp of the last buffer that cause the element to generate the QOS event. It is expressed in running time and thus an ever increasing value.

Allocate a new seek event with the given parameters.
The seek event configures playback of the pipeline between start to stop at the speed given in rate, also called a playback segment. The start and stop values are expressed in format.
A rate of 1.0 means normal playback rate, 2.0 means double speed. Negatives values means backwards playback. A value of 0.0 for the rate is not allowed and should be accomplished instead by PAUSING the pipeline.
A pipeline has a default playback segment configured with a start position of 0, a stop position of -1 and a rate of 1.0. The currently configured playback segment can be queried with GST_QUERY_SEGMENT.
start_type and stop_type specify how to adjust the currently configured start and stop fields in playback segment. Adjustments can be made relative or absolute to the last configured values. A type of GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE means that the position should not be updated.
When the rate is positive and start has been updated, playback will start from the newly configured start position.
For negative rates, playback will start from the newly configured stop position (if any). If the stop position is updated, it must be different from -1 (#GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE) for negative rates.

gst_event_new_segment
GstEvent * gst_event_new_segment (const GstSegment * segment)
Create a new SEGMENT event for segment. The segment event can only travel downstream synchronized with the buffer flow and contains timing information and playback properties for the buffers that will follow.
The segment event marks the range of buffers to be processed. All data not within the segment range is not to be processed. This can be used intelligently by plugins to apply more efficient methods of skipping unneeded data. The valid range is expressed with the start and stop values.
The time value of the segment is used in conjunction with the start value to convert the buffer timestamps into the stream time. This is usually done in sinks to report the current stream_time. time represents the stream_time of a buffer carrying a timestamp of start. time cannot be -1.
start cannot be -1, stop can be -1. If there is a valid stop given, it must be greater or equal the start, including when the indicated playback rate is < 0.
The applied_rate value provides information about any rate adjustment that has already been made to the timestamps and content on the buffers of the stream. (@rate * applied_rate) should always equal the rate that has been requested for playback. For example, if an element has an input segment with intended playback rate of 2.0 and applied_rate of 1.0, it can adjust incoming timestamps and buffer content by half and output a segment event with rate of 1.0 and applied_rate of 2.0
After a segment event, the buffer stream time is calculated with:
time + (TIMESTAMP(buf) - start) * ABS (rate * applied_rate)
Parameters:
segment

gst_event_new_stream_start
GstEvent * gst_event_new_stream_start (const gchar * stream_id)
Create a new STREAM_START event. The stream start event can only travel downstream synchronized with the buffer flow. It is expected to be the first event that is sent for a new stream.
Source elements, demuxers and other elements that create new streams are supposed to send this event as the first event of a new stream. It should not be sent after a flushing seek or in similar situations and is used to mark the beginning of a new logical stream. Elements combining multiple streams must ensure that this event is only forwarded downstream once and not for every single input stream.
The stream_id should be a unique string that consists of the upstream stream-id, / as separator and a unique stream-id for this specific stream. A new stream-id should only be created for a stream if the upstream stream is split into (potentially) multiple new streams, e.g. in a demuxer, but not for every single element in the pipeline. gst_pad_create_stream_id or gst_pad_create_stream_id_printf can be used to create a stream-id. There are no particular semantics for the stream-id, though it should be deterministic (to support stream matching) and it might be used to order streams (besides any information conveyed by stream flags).
