GstProtection

The GstProtectionMeta class enables the information needed to decrypt a GstBuffer to be attached to that buffer.

Typically, a demuxer element would attach GstProtectionMeta objects to the buffers that it pushes downstream. The demuxer would parse the protection information for a video/audio frame from its input data and use this information to populate the GstStructure info field, which is then encapsulated in a GstProtectionMeta object and attached to the corresponding output buffer using the gst_buffer_add_protection_meta function. The information in this attached GstProtectionMeta would be used by a downstream decrypter element to recover the original unencrypted frame.

In addition to the GstProtectionMeta demuxers signal encrypted streams with specific caps. The caps GstStructure name will usually depend on the encryption scheme, for instance Common Encryption will be signaled with application/x-cenc. To prevent loss of information the media type of the decrypted stream will be stored in a original-media-type string field. Downstream elements can re-use that information, for instance decryptors can set their source pad caps according to the original-media-type received on their sink pad.

GstProtectionMeta

Members

meta (GstMeta) –

the parent GstMeta.

info (GstStructure *) –

the cryptographic information needed to decrypt the sample.

Functions

gst_protection_filter_systems_by_available_decryptors 

gchar **
gst_protection_filter_systems_by_available_decryptors (const gchar ** system_identifiers)
