GESTimelineElement

A GESTimelineElement will have some temporal extent in its corresponding timeline, controlled by its start and duration. This determines when its content will be displayed, or its effect applied, in the timeline. Several objects may overlap within a given GESTimeline, in which case their priority is used to determine their ordering in the timeline. Priority is mostly handled internally by GESLayer-s and GESClip-s.

A timeline element can have a parent, such as a GESClip, which is responsible for controlling its timing.

Editing

Elements can be moved around in their timeline by setting their start and duration using ges_timeline_element_set_start and ges_timeline_element_set_duration. Additionally, which parts of the underlying content are played in the timeline can be adjusted by setting the in-point using ges_timeline_element_set_inpoint. The library also provides ges_timeline_element_edit, with various GESEditMode-s, which can adjust these properties in a convenient way, as well as introduce similar changes in neighbouring or later elements in the timeline.

However, a timeline may refuse a change in these properties if they would place the timeline in an unsupported configuration. See GESTimeline for its overlap rules.

Additionally, an edit may be refused if it would place one of the timing properties out of bounds (such as a negative time value for start, or having insufficient internal content to last for the desired duration).

Time Coordinates

There are three main sets of time coordinates to consider when using timeline elements:

  • Timeline coordinates: these are the time coordinates used in the output of the timeline in its GESTrack-s. Each track share the same coordinates, so there is only one set of coordinates for the timeline. These extend indefinitely from 0. The times used for editing (including setting start and duration) use these coordinates, since these define when an element is present and for how long the element lasts for in the timeline.
  • Internal source coordinates: these are the time coordinates used internally at the element's output. This is only really defined for GESTrackElement-s, where it refers to time coordinates used at the final source pad of the wrapped GstElement-s. However, these coordinates may also be used in a GESClip in reference to its children. In particular, these are the coordinates used for in-point and max-duration.
  • Internal sink coordinates: these are the time coordinates used internally at the element's input. A GESSource has no input, so these would be undefined. Otherwise, for most GESTrackElement-s these will be the same set of coordinates as the internal source coordinates because the element does not change the timing internally. Only GESBaseEffect can support elements where these are different. See GESBaseEffect for more information.

You can determine the timeline time for a given internal source time in a GESTrack in a GESClip using ges_clip_get_timeline_time_from_internal_time, and vice versa using ges_clip_get_internal_time_from_timeline_time, for the purposes of editing and setting timings properties.

Children Properties

If a timeline element owns another GstObject and wishes to expose some of its properties, it can do so by registering the property as one of the timeline element's children properties using ges_timeline_element_add_child_property. The registered property of the child can then be read and set using the ges_timeline_element_get_child_property and ges_timeline_element_set_child_property methods, respectively. Some sub-classed objects will be created with pre-registered children properties; for example, to expose part of an underlying GstElement that is used internally. The registered properties can be listed with ges_timeline_element_list_children_properties.

GESTimelineElement *
ges_timeline_element_copy (GESTimelineElement * self,
                           gboolean deep)

Create a copy of self. All the properties of self are copied into a new element, with the exception of parent, timeline and name. Other data, such the list of a GESContainer's children, is not copied.

If deep is TRUE, then the new element is prepared so that it can be used in ges_timeline_element_paste or ges_timeline_paste_element. In the case of copying a GESContainer, this ensures that the children of self will also be pasted. The new element should not be used for anything else and can only be used once in a pasting operation. In particular, the new element itself is not an actual 'deep' copy of self, but should be thought of as an intermediate object used for a single paste operation.

Parameters:

self

The GESTimelineElement to copy

deep

Whether the copy is needed for pasting

Returns ( [transfer: floating])

The newly create element, copied from self.

                                GError ** error)

Edits the element within its timeline by adjusting its start, duration or in-point, and potentially doing the same for other elements in the timeline. See GESEditMode for details about each edit mode. An edit may fail if it would place one of these properties out of bounds, or if it would place the timeline in an unsupported configuration.

Note that if you act on a GESTrackElement, this will edit its parent GESClip instead. Moreover, for any GESTimelineElement, if you select GES_EDGE_NONE for GES_EDIT_MODE_NORMAL or GES_EDIT_MODE_RIPPLE, this will edit the toplevel instead, but still in such a way as to make the start of self reach the edit position.

Note that if the element's timeline has a snapping-distance set, then the edit position may be snapped to the edge of some element under the edited element.

new_layer_priority can be used to switch self, and other elements moved by the edit, to a new layer. New layers may be be created if the the corresponding layer priority/index does not yet exist for the timeline.

Parameters:

new_layer_priority

The priority/index of the layer self should be moved to. -1 means no move

mode

The edit mode

edge

The edge of self where the edit should occur

position

The edit position: a new location for the edge of self (in nanoseconds) in the timeline coordinates

error

Return location for an error

Returns

TRUE if the edit of self completed, FALSE on failure.

ges_timeline_element_set_name (GESTimelineElement * self,
                               const gchar * name)

Sets the name for the element. If NULL is given for name, then the library will instead generate a new name based on the type name of the element, such as the name "uriclip3" for a GESUriClip, and will set that name instead.

If self already has a timeline, you should not call this function with name set to NULL.

You should ensure that, within each GESTimeline, every element has a unique name. If you call this function with name as NULL, then the library should ensure that the set generated name is unique from previously generated names. However, if you choose a name that interferes with the naming conventions of the library, the library will attempt to ensure that the generated names will not conflict with the chosen name, which may lead to a different name being set instead, but the uniqueness between generated and user-chosen names is not guaranteed.

Parameters:

self

A GESTimelineElement

name ( [nullable])

The name self should take

Returns

TRUE if name or a generated name for self could be set.


GES.TimelineElement.prototype.set_name

function GES.TimelineElement.prototype.set_name(name: String): {

Sets the name for the element. If null is given for name, then the library will instead generate a new name based on the type name of the element, such as the name "uriclip3" for a GES.UriClip, and will set that name instead.

If self already has a timeline, you should not call this function with name set to null.

You should ensure that, within each GES.Timeline, every element has a unique name. If you call this function with name as null, then the library should ensure that the set generated name is unique from previously generated names.

Parameters:

name (String)

The name self should take

Returns (Number)

true if name or a generated name for self could be set.


GES.TimelineElement.set_name

def GES.TimelineElement.set_name (self, name):
    #python wrapper for 'ges_timeline_element_set_name'

Sets the name for the element. If None is given for name, then the library will instead generate a new name based on the type name of the element, such as the name "uriclip3" for a GES.UriClip, and will set that name instead.

If self already has a timeline, you should not call this function with name set to None.

You should ensure that, within each GES.Timeline, every element has a unique name. If you call this function with name as None, then the library should ensure that the set generated name is unique from previously generated names. However, if you choose a name that interferes with the naming conventions of the library, the library will attempt to ensure that the generated names will not conflict with the chosen name, which may lead to a different name being set instead, but the uniqueness between generated and user-chosen names is not guaranteed.

                                 GESTimelineElement * parent)

Sets the parent for the element.

This is used internally and you should normally not call this. A GESContainer will set the parent of its children in ges_container_add and ges_container_remove.

Note, if parent is not NULL, self must not already have a parent set. Therefore, if you wish to switch parents, you will need to call this function twice: first to set the parent to NULL, and then to the new parent.

If parent is not NULL, you must ensure it already has a (non-floating) reference to self before calling this.

Parameters:

self

A GESTimelineElement parent (nullable): New parent of self

parent
No description available
Returns

TRUE if parent could be set for self.


GES.TimelineElement.prototype.set_parent

                                GstClockTime start)

Sets start for the element. If the element has a parent, this will also move its siblings with the same shift.

Whilst the element is part of a GESTimeline, this is the same as editing the element with ges_timeline_element_edit under GES_EDIT_MODE_NORMAL with GES_EDGE_NONE. In particular, the start of the element may be snapped to a different timeline time from the one given. In addition, setting may fail if it would place the timeline in an unsupported configuration.

Sets start for the element. If the element has a parent, this will also move its siblings with the same shift.

Whilst the element is part of a GES.Timeline, this is the same as editing the element with GES.TimelineElement.prototype.edit under GES.EditMode.EDIT_NORMAL with GES.Edge.EDGE_NONE. In particular, the start of the element may be snapped to a different timeline time from the one given. In addition, setting may fail if it would place the timeline in an unsupported configuration.

Parameters:

start (Number)

The desired start position of the element in its timeline

Returns (Number)

Properties

duration

“duration” guint64

The duration that the element is in effect for in the timeline (a time difference in nanoseconds using the time coordinates of the timeline). For example, for a source element, this would determine for how long it should output its internal content for. For an operation element, this would determine for how long its effect should be applied to any source content.

Flags : Read / Write


duration

“duration” Number

The duration that the element is in effect for in the timeline (a time difference in nanoseconds using the time coordinates of the timeline). For example, for a source element, this would determine for how long it should output its internal content for. For an operation element, this would determine for how long its effect should be applied to any source content.

Flags : Read / Write


duration

“self.props.duration” int

The duration that the element is in effect for in the timeline (a time difference in nanoseconds using the time coordinates of the timeline). For example, for a source element, this would determine for how long it should output its internal content for. For an operation element, this would determine for how long its effect should be applied to any source content.

Flags : Read / Write


in-point

“in-point” guint64

The initial offset to use internally when outputting content (in nanoseconds, but in the time coordinates of the internal content).

For example, for a GESVideoUriSource that references some media file, the "internal content" is the media file data, and the in-point would correspond to some timestamp in the media file. When playing the timeline, and when the element is first reached at timeline-time start, it will begin outputting the data from the timestamp in-point onwards, until it reaches the end of its duration in the timeline.

For elements that have no internal content, this should be kept as 0.

Flags : Read / Write


in-point

“in-point” Number

The initial offset to use internally when outputting content (in nanoseconds, but in the time coordinates of the internal content).

For example, for a GES.VideoUriSource that references some media file, the "internal content" is the media file data, and the in-point would correspond to some timestamp in the media file. When playing the timeline, and when the element is first reached at timeline-time start, it will begin outputting the data from the timestamp in-point onwards, until it reaches the end of its duration in the timeline.

When playing the timeline, and when the element is first reached at timeline-time start, it will begin outputting the data from the timestamp in-point onwards, until it reaches the end of its duration in the timeline.

For elements that have no internal content, this should be kept as 0.

Flags : Read / Write


max-duration

“max-duration” guint64

The full duration of internal content that is available (a time difference in nanoseconds using the time coordinates of the internal content).

This will act as a cap on the in-point of the element (which is in the same time coordinates), and will sometimes be used to limit the duration of the element in the timeline.

For example, for a GESVideoUriSource that references some media file, this would be the length of the media file.

For elements that have no internal content, or whose content is indefinite, this should be kept as GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE.

Flags : Read / Write / Construct
