Description

These methods allow to use some GstController functionallity directly from the GObject class.

Details

gst_object_control_properties ()

GstController* gst_object_control_properties
                                            (GObject *object,
                                             ...);

Convenience function for GObject

Creates a GstController that allows you to dynamically control one, or more, GObject properties. If the given GObject already has a GstController, it adds the given properties to the existing controller and returns that controller.

object : the object of which some properties should be controlled
... : NULL terminated list of property names that should be controlled
Returns : The GstController with which the user can control the given properties dynamically or NULL if one or more of the given properties aren't available, or cannot be controlled, for the given element.

Since 0.9


gst_object_uncontrol_properties ()

gboolean    gst_object_uncontrol_properties (GObject *object,
                                             ...);

Convenience function for GObject

Removes the given element's properties from it's controller

object : the object of which some properties should not be controlled anymore
... : NULL terminated list of property names that should be controlled
Returns : FALSE if one of the given property names isn't handled by the controller, TRUE otherwise

Since 0.9


gst_object_get_controller ()

GstController* gst_object_get_controller    (GObject *object);

object : the object that has controlled properties
Returns : the controller handling some of the given element's properties, NULL if no controller

Since 0.9


gst_object_set_controller ()

gboolean    gst_object_set_controller       (GObject *object,
                                             GstController *controller);

Sets the controller on the given GObject

object : the object that should get the controller
controller : the controller object to plug in
Returns : FALSE if the GObject already has an controller, TRUE otherwise

Since 0.9


gst_object_sync_values ()

gboolean    gst_object_sync_values          (GObject *object,
                                             GstClockTime timestamp);

Convenience function for GObject

object : the object that has controlled properties
timestamp : the time that should be processed
Returns : same thing as gst_controller_sync_values()

Since 0.9


gst_object_get_value_arrays ()

gboolean    gst_object_get_value_arrays     (GObject *object,
                                             GstClockTime timestamp,
                                             GSList *value_arrays);

Function to be able to get an array of values for one or more given element properties.

If the GstValueArray->values array in list nodes is NULL, it will be created by the function. The type of the values in the array are the same as the property's type.

The g_object_* functions are just convenience functions for GObject

object : the object that has controlled properties
timestamp : the time that should be processed
value_arrays : list to return the control-values in
Returns : TRUE if the given array(s) could be filled, FALSE otherwise

Since 0.9


gst_object_get_value_array ()

gboolean    gst_object_get_value_array      (GObject *object,
                                             GstClockTime timestamp,
                                             GstValueArray *value_array);

Function to be able to get an array of values for one element properties

If the GstValueArray->values array is NULL, it will be created by the function. The type of the values in the array are the same as the property's type.

The g_object_* functions are just convenience functions for GObject

object : the object that has controlled properties
timestamp : the time that should be processed
value_array : array to put control-values in
Returns : TRUE if the given array(s) could be filled, FALSE otherwise

Since 0.9
