GESClip

GESClip-s are the core objects of a GESLayer. Each clip may exist in a single layer but may control several GESTrackElement-s that span several GESTrack-s. A clip will ensure that all its children share the same start and duration in their tracks, which will match the start and duration of the clip itself. Therefore, changing the timing of the clip will change the timing of the children, and a change in the timing of a child will change the timing of the clip and subsequently all its siblings. As such, a clip can be treated as a singular object in its layer.

For most uses of a GESTimeline, it is often sufficient to only interact with GESClip-s directly, which will take care of creating and organising the elements of the timeline's tracks.

Core Children

In more detail, clips will usually have some *core* GESTrackElement children, which are created by the clip when it is added to a layer in a timeline. The type and form of these core children will depend on the clip's subclass. You can use ges_track_element_is_core to determine whether a track element is considered such a core track element. Note, if a core track element is part of a clip, it will always be treated as a core child of the clip. You can connect to the child-added signal to be notified of their creation.

When a child is added to a clip, the timeline will select its tracks using select-tracks-for-object. Note that it may be the case that the child will still have no set track after this process. For example, if the timeline does not have a track of the corresponding track-type. A clip can safely contain such children, which may have their track set later, although they will play no functioning role in the timeline in the meantime.

If a clip may create track elements with various track-type(s), such as a GESUriClip, but you only want it to create a subset of these types, you should set the supported-formats of the clip to the subset of types. This should be done before adding the clip to a layer.

If a clip will produce several core elements of the same track-type, you should connect to the timeline's select-tracks-for-object signal to coordinate which tracks each element should land in. Note, no two core children within a clip can share the same GESTrack, so you should not select the same track for two separate core children. Provided you stick to this rule, it is still safe to select several tracks for the same core child, the core child will be copied into the additional tracks. You can manually add the child to more tracks later using ges_clip_add_child_to_track. If you do not wish to use a core child, you can always select no track.

The in-point of the clip will control the in-point of its core children to be the same value if their has-internal-source is set to TRUE.

The max-duration of the clip is the minimum max-duration of its core children. If you set its value to anything other than its current value, this will also set the max-duration of all its core children to the same value if their has-internal-source is set to TRUE. As a special case, whilst a clip does not yet have any core children, its max-duration may be set to indicate what its value will be once they are created.

Effects

Some subclasses (#GESSourceClip and GESBaseEffectClip) may also allow their objects to have additional non-core GESBaseEffect-s elements as children. These are additional effects that are applied to the output data of the core elements. They can be added to the clip using ges_clip_add_top_effect, which will take care of adding the effect to the timeline's tracks. The new effect will be placed between the clip's core track elements and its other effects. As such, the newly added effect will be applied to any source data **before** the other existing effects. You can change the ordering of effects using ges_clip_set_top_effect_index.

Tracks are selected for top effects in the same way as core children. If you add a top effect to a clip before it is part of a timeline, and later add the clip to a timeline, the track selection for the top effects will occur just after the track selection for the core children. If you add a top effect to a clip that is already part of a timeline, the track selection will occur immediately. Since a top effect must be applied on top of a core child, if you use select-tracks-for-object, you should ensure that the added effects are destined for a GESTrack that already contains a core child.

In addition, if the core child in the track is not active, then neither can any of its effects be active. Therefore, if a core child is made in-active, all of the additional effects in the same track will also become in-active. Similarly, if an effect is set to be active, then the core child will also become active, but other effects will be left alone. Finally, if an active effect is added to the track of an in-active core child, it will become in-active as well. Note, in contrast, setting a core child to be active, or an effect to be in-active will not change the other children in the same track.

Time Effects

Some effects also change the timing of their data (see GESBaseEffect for what counts as a time effect). Note that a GESBaseEffectClip will refuse time effects, but a GESSource will allow them.

When added to a clip, time effects may adjust the timing of other children in the same track. Similarly, when changing the order of effects, making them (in)-active, setting their time property values or removing time effects. These can cause the duration-limit to change in value. However, if such an operation would ever cause the duration to shrink such that a clip's GESSource is totally overlapped in the timeline, the operation would be prevented. Note that the same can happen when adding non-time effects with a finite max-duration.

Therefore, when working with time effects, you should -- more so than usual -- not assume that setting the properties of the clip's children will succeed. In particular, you should use ges_timeline_element_set_child_property_full when setting the time properties.

If you wish to preserve the internal duration of a source in a clip during these time effect operations, you can do something like the following.

void
do_time_effect_change (GESClip * clip)
{
  GList *tmp, *children;
  GESTrackElement *source;
  GstClockTime source_outpoint;
  GstClockTime new_end;
  GError *error = NULL;

  // choose some active source in a track to preserve the internal
  // duration of
  source = ges_clip_get_track_element (clip, NULL, GES_TYPE_SOURCE);

  // note its current internal end time
  source_outpoint = ges_clip_get_internal_time_from_timeline_time (
        clip, source, GES_TIMELINE_ELEMENT_END (clip), NULL);

  // handle invalid out-point

  // stop the children's control sources from clamping when their
  // out-point changes with a change in the time effects
  children = ges_container_get_children (GES_CONTAINER (clip), FALSE);

  for (tmp = children; tmp; tmp = tmp->next)
    ges_track_element_set_auto_clamp_control_sources (tmp->data, FALSE);

  // add time effect, or set their children properties, or move them around
  ...
  // user can make sure that if a time effect changes one source, we should
  // also change the time effect for another source. E.g. if
  // "GstVideorate::rate" is set to 2.0, we also set "GstPitch::rate" to
  // 2.0

  // Note the duration of the clip may have already changed if the
  // duration-limit of the clip dropped below its current value

  new_end = ges_clip_get_timeline_time_from_internal_time (
        clip, source, source_outpoint, &error);
  // handle error

  if (!ges_timeline_elemnet_edit_full (GES_TIMELINE_ELEMENT (clip),
        -1, GES_EDIT_MODE_TRIM, GES_EDGE_END, new_end, &error))
    // handle error

  for (tmp = children; tmp; tmp = tmp->next)
    ges_track_element_set_auto_clamp_control_sources (tmp->data, TRUE);

  g_list_free_full (children, gst_object_unref);
  gst_object_unref (source);
}

clip (GES.Clip)

A GES.Clip

Returns (GES.TrackElement)

The newly created element, or null if an error occurred.


GES.Clip.add_asset

def GES.Clip.add_asset (self, asset):
    #python wrapper for 'ges_clip_add_asset'

Extracts a GES.TrackElement from an asset and adds it to the clip. This can be used to add effects that derive from the asset to the clip, but this method is not intended to be used to create the core elements of the clip.

ges_clip_add_child_to_track

GESTrackElement *
ges_clip_add_child_to_track (GESClip * clip,
                             GESTrackElement * child,
                             GESTrack * track,
                             GError ** error)

Adds the track element child of the clip to a specific track.

If the given child is already in another track, this will create a copy of the child, add it to the clip, and add this copy to the track.

You should only call this whilst a clip is part of a GESTimeline, and for tracks that are in the same timeline.

This method is an alternative to using the select-tracks-for-object signal, but can be used to complement it when, say, you wish to copy a clip's children from one track into a new one.

When the child is a core child, it must be added to a track that does not already contain another core child of the same clip. If it is not a core child (an additional effect), then it must be added to a track that already contains one of the core children of the same clip.

This method can also fail if the adding the track element to the track would break a configuration rule of the corresponding GESTimeline, such as causing three sources to overlap at a single time, or causing a source to completely overlap another in the same track.

Parameters:

clip

A GESClip

child

A child of clip

track

The track to add child to

error

Return location for an error

Returns ( [transfer: none])

The element that was added to track, either child or a copy of child, or NULL if the element could not be added.

                              GType type)

Finds the GESTrackElement-s controlled by the clip that match the given criteria. If track is given as NULL and track_type is given as GES_TRACK_TYPE_UNKNOWN, then the search will match all elements in any track, including those with no track, and of any track-type. Otherwise, if track is not NULL, but track_type is GES_TRACK_TYPE_UNKNOWN, then only the track elements in track are searched for. Otherwise, if track_type is not GES_TRACK_TYPE_UNKNOWN, but track is NULL, then only the track elements whose track-type matches track_type are searched for. Otherwise, when both are given, the track elements that match either criteria are searched for. Therefore, if you wish to only find elements in a specific track, you should give the track as track, but you should not give the track's track-type as track_type because this would also select elements from other tracks of the same type.

ges_clip_get_internal_time_from_timeline_time

GstClockTime
ges_clip_get_internal_time_from_timeline_time (GESClip * clip,
                                               GESTrackElement * child,
                                               GstClockTime timeline_time,
                                               GError ** error)

Convert the timeline time to an internal source time of the child. This will take any time effects placed on the clip into account (see GESBaseEffect for what time effects are supported, and how to declare them in GES).

When timeline_time is above the start of clip, this will return the internal time at which the content that appears at timeline_time in the output of the timeline is created in child. For example, if timeline_time corresponds to the current seek position, this would let you know which part of a media file is being read.

This will be done assuming the clip has an indefinite end, so the internal time may be beyond the current out-point of the child, or even its max-duration.

If, instead, timeline_time is below the current start of clip, this will return what you would need to set the in-point of child to if you set the start of clip to timeline_time and wanted to keep the content of child currently found at the current start of clip at the same timeline position. If this would be negative, the conversion fails. This is useful for determining what in-point would result from a GES_EDIT_MODE_TRIM to timeline_time.

Note that whilst a clip has no time effects, this second return is equivalent to finding the internal time at which the content that appears at timeline_time in the timeline can be found in child if it had indefinite extent in both directions. However, with non-linear time effects this second return will be more distinct.

In either case, the returned time would be appropriate to use for the in-point or max-duration of the child.

See ges_clip_get_timeline_time_from_internal_time, which performs the reverse.

Parameters:

clip

A GESClip

child

An active child of clip with a track

timeline_time

A time in the timeline time coordinates

error ( [nullable])

Return location for an error

Returns

The time in the internal coordinates of child corresponding to timeline_time, or GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE if the conversion could not be performed.

                                               GError ** error)

Convert the internal source time from the child to a timeline time. This will take any time effects placed on the clip into account (see GESBaseEffect for what time effects are supported, and how to declare them in GES).

When internal_time is above the in-point of child, this will return the timeline time at which the internal content found at internal_time appears in the output of the timeline's track. For example, this would let you know where in the timeline a particular scene in a media file would appear.

This will be done assuming the clip has an indefinite end, so the timeline time may be beyond the end of the clip, or even breaking its duration-limit.

If, instead, internal_time is below the current in-point of child, this will return what you would need to set the start of clip to if you set the in-point of child to internal_time and wanted to keep the content of child currently found at the current start of clip at the same timeline position. If this would be negative, the conversion fails. This is useful for determining what position to use in a GES_EDIT_MODE_TRIM if you wish to trim to a specific point in the internal content, such as a particular scene in a media file.

Note that whilst a clip has no time effects, this second return is equivalent to finding the timeline time at which the content of child at internal_time would be found in the timeline if it had indefinite extent in both directions. However, with non-linear time effects this second return will be more distinct.

In either case, the returned time would be appropriate to use in ges_timeline_element_edit for GES_EDIT_MODE_TRIM, and similar, if you wish to use a particular internal point as a reference. For example, you could choose to end a clip at a certain internal 'out-point', similar to the in-point, by translating the desired end time into the timeline coordinates, and using this position to trim the end of a clip.

See ges_clip_get_internal_time_from_timeline_time, which performs the reverse, or ges_clip_get_timeline_time_from_source_frame which does the same conversion, but using frame numbers.

Parameters:

clip

A GESClip

child

An active child of clip with a track

internal_time

A time in the internal time coordinates of child

error ( [nullable])

Return location for an error

Returns

The time in the timeline coordinates corresponding to internal_time, or GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE if the conversion could not be performed.

ges_clip_split

GESClip *
ges_clip_split (GESClip * clip,
                guint64 position)

See ges_clip_split_full, which also gives an error.

Parameters:

clip

The GESClip to split

position

The timeline position at which to perform the split

Returns ( [transfer: none][nullable])

The newly created clip resulting from the splitting clip, or NULL if clip can't be split.


GES.Clip.prototype.split

function GES.Clip.prototype.split(position: Number): {
    // javascript wrapper for 'ges_clip_split'
}

See GES.Clip.prototype.split_full, which also gives an error.

Parameters:

clip (GES.Clip)

The GES.Clip to split

position (Number)

The timeline position at which to perform the split

Returns (GES.Clip)

The newly created clip resulting from the splitting clip, or null if clip can't be split.


GES.Clip.split

def GES.Clip.split (self, position):
    #python wrapper for 'ges_clip_split'

See GES.Clip.split_full, which also gives an error.

Parameters:

clip (GES.Clip)

The GES.Clip to split

position (int)

The timeline position at which to perform the split

Returns (GES.Clip)

The newly created clip resulting from the splitting clip, or None if clip can't be split.


ges_clip_split_full

GESClip *
ges_clip_split_full (GESClip * clip,
                     guint64 position,
                     GError ** error)

Splits a clip at the given timeline position into two clips. The clip must already have a layer.

The original clip's duration is reduced such that its end point matches the split position. Then a new clip is created in the same layer, whose start matches the split position and duration will be set such that its end point matches the old end point of the original clip. Thus, the two clips together will occupy the same positions in the timeline as the original clip did.

The children of the new clip will be new copies of the original clip's children, so it will share the same sources and use the same operations.

The new clip will also have its in-point set so that any internal data will appear in the timeline at the same time. Thus, when the timeline is played, the playback of data should appear the same. This may be complicated by any additional GESEffect-s that have been placed on the original clip that depend on the playback time or change the data consumption rate of sources. This method will attempt to translate these effects such that the playback appears the same. In such complex situations, you may get a better result if you place the clip in a separate sub GESProject, which only contains this clip (and its effects), and in the original layer create two neighbouring GESUriClip-s that reference this sub-project, but at a different in-point.

Parameters:

clip

The GESClip to split

position

The timeline position at which to perform the split, between the start and end of the clip

error

Return location for an error

Returns ( [transfer: none][nullable])

The newly created clip resulting from the splitting clip, or NULL if clip can't be split.

Since : 1.18
