This helper structure holds the relevant values for tracking the region of interest in a media file, called a segment.
The structure can be used for two purposes:
performing seeks (handling seek events)
tracking playback regions (handling newsegment events)
The segment is usually configured by the application with a seek event which is propagated upstream and eventually handled by an element that performs the seek.
The configured segment is then propagated back downstream with a newsegment event. This information is then used to clip media to the segment boundaries.
A segment structure is initialized with gst_segment_init(), which takes a GstFormat
that will be used as the format of the segment values. The segment will be configured
with a start value of 0 and a stop/duration of -1, which is undefined. The default
rate and applied_rate is 1.0.
If the segment is used for managing seeks, the segment duration should be set with
gst_segment_set_duration(). The public duration field contains the duration of the
segment. When using the segment for seeking, the start and time members should
normally be left to their default 0 value. The stop position is left to -1 unless
explicitly configured to a different value after a seek event.
The current position in the segment should be set with the gst_segment_set_last_stop().
The public last_stop field contains the last set stop position in the segment.
For elements that perform seeks, the current segment should be updated with the
gst_segment_set_seek() and the values from the seek event. This method will update
all the segment fields. The last_stop field will contain the new playback position.
If the cur_type was different from GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE, playback continues from
the last_stop position, possibly with updated flags or rate.
For elements that want to use GstSegment to track the playback region, use
gst_segment_set_newsegment() to update the segment fields with the information from
the newsegment event. The gst_segment_clip() method can be used to check and clip
the media data to the segment boundaries.
For elements that want to synchronize to the pipeline clock, gst_segment_to_running_time()
can be used to convert a timestamp to a value that can be used to synchronize
to the clock. This function takes into account all accumulated segments as well as
any rate or applied_rate conversions.
For elements that need to perform operations on media data in stream_time,
gst_segment_to_stream_time() can be used to convert a timestamp and the segment
info to stream time (which is always between 0 and the duration of the stream).

gboolean gst_segment_clip (GstSegment *segment, GstFormat format, gint64 start, gint64 stop, gint64 *clip_start, gint64 *clip_stop);
Clip the given start and stop values to the segment boundaries given
in segment. start and stop are compared and clipped to segment
start and stop values.
If the function returns FALSE, start and stop are known to fall
outside of segment and clip_start and clip_stop are not updated.
When the function returns TRUE, clip_start and clip_stop will be
updated. If clip_start or clip_stop are different from start or stop
respectively, the region fell partially in the segment.
Note that when stop is -1, clip_stop will be set to the end of the
segment. Depending on the use case, this may or may not be what you want.

void gst_segment_set_seek (GstSegment *segment, gdouble rate, GstFormat format, GstSeekFlags flags, GstSeekType start_type, gint64 start, GstSeekType stop_type, gint64 stop, gboolean *update);
Update the segment structure with the field values of a seek event (see
gst_event_new_seek()).
After calling this method, the segment field last_stop and time will
contain the requested new position in the segment. The new requested
position in the segment depends on rate and start_type and stop_type.
For positive rate, the new position in the segment is the new segment
start field when it was updated with a start_type different from
GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE. If no update was performed on segment start position
(GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE), start is ignored and segment last_stop is
unmodified.
For negative rate, the new position in the segment is the new segment
stop field when it was updated with a stop_type different from
GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE. If no stop was previously configured in the segment, the
duration of the segment will be used to update the stop position.
If no update was performed on segment stop position (GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE),
stop is ignored and segment last_stop is unmodified.
The applied rate of the segment will be set to 1.0 by default.
If the caller can apply a rate change, it should update segment
rate and applied_rate after calling this function.
update will be set to TRUE if a seek should be performed to the segment
last_stop field. This field can be FALSE if, for example, only the rate
has been changed but not the playback position.

gint64 gst_segment_to_running_time (GstSegment *segment, GstFormat format, gint64 position);
Translate position to the total running time using the currently configured
and previously accumulated segments. Position is a value between segment
start and stop time.
This function is typically used by elements that need to synchronize to the
global clock in a pipeline. The runnning time is a constantly increasing value
starting from 0. When gst_segment_init() is called, this value will reset to
0.
This function returns -1 if the position is outside of segment start and stop.
segment : |
a GstSegment structure. |
format : |
the format of the segment. |
position : |
the position in the segment |
| Returns : | the position as the total running time or -1 when an invalid position was given. |
gint64 gst_segment_to_stream_time (GstSegment *segment, GstFormat format, gint64 position);
Translate position to stream time using the currently configured
segment. The position value must be between segment start and
stop value.
This function is typically used by elements that need to operate on
the stream time of the buffers it receives, such as effect plugins.
In those use cases, position is typically the buffer timestamp or
clock time that one wants to convert to the stream time.
The stream time is always between 0 and the total duration of the
media stream.
segment : |
a GstSegment structure. |
format : |
the format of the segment. |
position : |
the position in the segment |
| Returns : | the position in stream_time or -1 when an invalid position was given. |
gint64 gst_segment_to_position (GstSegment *segment, GstFormat format, gint64 running_time);
Convert running_time into a position in the segment so that
gst_segment_to_running_time() with that position returns running_time.
segment : |
a GstSegment structure. |
format : |
the format of the segment. |
running_time : |
the running_time in the segment |
| Returns : | the position in the segment for running_time. This function returns
-1 when running_time is -1 or when it is not inside segment.
|
Since 0.10.24
gboolean gst_segment_set_running_time (GstSegment *segment, GstFormat format, gint64 running_time);
Adjust the start/stop and accum values of segment such that the next valid
buffer will be one with running_time.
segment : |
a GstSegment structure. |
format : |
the format of the segment. |
running_time : |
the running_time in the segment |
| Returns : | TRUE if the segment could be updated successfully. If FALSE is
returned, running_time is -1 or not in segment.
