Meta

The gstreamer.Meta structure should be included as the first member of a gstreamer.Buffer metadata structure. The structure defines the API of the metadata and should be accessible to all elements using the metadata.

A metadata API is registered with Meta.apiTypeRegister which takes a name for the metadata API and some tags associated with the metadata. With Meta.apiTypeHasTag one can check if a certain metadata API contains a given tag.

Multiple implementations of a metadata API can be registered. To implement a metadata API, Meta.register should be used. This function takes all parameters needed to create, free and transform metadata along with the size of the metadata. The function returns a GstMetaInfo structure that contains the information for the implementation of the API.

A specific implementation can be retrieved by name with Meta.getInfo.

See gstreamer.Buffer for how the metadata can be added, retrieved and removed from buffers.

Constructors

this this(GstMeta* gstMeta, bool ownedRef): Sets our main struct and passes it to the parent class.

compareSeqnum int compareSeqnum(Meta meta2): Meta sequence number compare function. Can be used as GCompareFunc or a GCompareDataFunc
getMetaStruct GstMeta* getMetaStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct
getSeqnum ulong getSeqnum(): Gets seqnum for this meta.
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*

Properties

flags GstMetaFlags flags [@property getter]
GstMetaFlags flags [@property setter]: extra flags for the metadata
info GstMetaInfo* info [@property getter]
GstMetaInfo* info [@property setter]: pointer to the GstMetaInfo

Static functions

apiTypeGetTags string[] apiTypeGetTags(GType api)
apiTypeHasTag bool apiTypeHasTag(GType api, GQuark tag): Check if api was registered with tag.
apiTypeRegister GType apiTypeRegister(string api, string[] tags): Register and return a GType for the api and associate it with tags.
getInfo GstMetaInfo* getInfo(string impl): Lookup a previously registered meta info structure by its implementation name impl.
register GstMetaInfo* register(GType api, string impl, size_t size, GstMetaInitFunction initFunc, GstMetaFreeFunction freeFunc, GstMetaTransformFunction transformFunc): Register a new gstreamer.Meta implementation.
