GstMessage

Messages are implemented as a subclass of GstMiniObject with a generic GstStructure as the content. This allows for writing custom messages without requiring an API change while allowing a wide range of different types of messages.

Messages are posted by objects in the pipeline and are passed to the application using the GstBus.

The basic use pattern of posting a message on a GstBus is as follows:

   gst_bus_post (bus, gst_message_new_eos());

A GstElement usually posts messages on the bus provided by the parent container using gst_element_post_message.

gst_message_new_redirect

GstMessage *
gst_message_new_redirect (GstObject * src,

                          const GstStructure * entry_struct)

Creates a new redirect message and adds a new entry to it. Redirect messages are posted when an element detects that the actual data has to be retrieved from a different location. This is useful if such a redirection cannot be handled inside a source element, for example when HTTP 302/303 redirects return a non-HTTP URL.

The redirect message can hold multiple entries. The first one is added when the redirect message is created, with the given location, tag_list, entry_struct arguments. Use gst_message_add_redirect_entry to add more entries.

Each entry has a location, a tag list, and a structure. All of these are optional. The tag list and structure are useful for additional metadata, such as bitrate statistics for the given location.

By default, message recipients should treat entries in the order they are stored. The recipient should therefore try entry #0 first, and if this entry is not acceptable or working, try entry #1 etc. Senders must make sure that they add entries in this order. However, recipients are free to ignore the order and pick an entry that is "best" for them. One example would be a recipient that scans the entries for the one with the highest bitrate tag.

The specified location string is copied. However, ownership over the tag list and structure are transferred to the message.

Parameters:

src ( [transfer: none][nullable])

The GstObject whose property changed (may or may not be a GstElement)

location ( [transfer: none])

location string for the new entry

tag_list ( [transfer: full][nullable])

tag list for the new entry

entry_struct ( [transfer: full][nullable])

gst_message_get_seqnum

guint32
gst_message_get_seqnum (GstMessage * message)

Retrieve the sequence number of a message.

GST_MESSAGE_UNKNOWN (0) –

an undefined message

GST_MESSAGE_EOS (1) –

end-of-stream reached in a pipeline. The application will only receive this message in the PLAYING state and every time it sets a pipeline to PLAYING that is in the EOS state. The application can perform a flushing seek in the pipeline, which will undo the EOS state again.

GST_MESSAGE_ERROR (2) –

an error occurred. When the application receives an error message it should stop playback of the pipeline and not assume that more data will be played.

Gst.MessageType

The different message types that are available.

Members
Gst.MessageType.UNKNOWN (0) –

an undefined message

Gst.MessageType.EOS (1) –

end-of-stream reached in a pipeline. The application will only receive this message in the PLAYING state and every time it sets a pipeline to PLAYING that is in the EOS state. The application can perform a flushing seek in the pipeline, which will undo the EOS state again.

Gst.MessageType.ERROR (2) –

an error occurred. When the application receives an error message it should stop playback of the pipeline and not assume that more data will be played. It is possible to specify a redirection url to the error messages by setting a redirect-location field into the error message, application or high level bins might use the information as required.

Gst.MessageType.WARNING (4) –

a warning occurred.

Gst.MessageType.INFO (8) –

an info message occurred

Gst.MessageType.TAG (16) –

a tag was found.

Gst.MessageType.BUFFERING (32) –

the pipeline is buffering. When the application receives a buffering message in the PLAYING state for a non-live pipeline it must PAUSE the pipeline until the buffering completes, when the percentage field in the message is 100%. For live pipelines, no action must be performed and the buffering percentage can be used to inform the user about the progress.

Gst.MessageType.STATE_CHANGED (64) –

a state change happened

Gst.MessageType.STATE_DIRTY (128) –

an element changed state in a streaming thread. This message is deprecated.

Gst.MessageType.STEP_DONE (256) –

a stepping operation finished.

Gst.MessageType.CLOCK_PROVIDE (512) –

an element notifies its capability of providing a clock. This message is used internally and never forwarded to the application.

Gst.MessageType.CLOCK_LOST (1024) –

The current clock as selected by the pipeline became unusable. The pipeline will select a new clock on the next PLAYING state change. The application should set the pipeline to PAUSED and back to PLAYING when this message is received.

Gst.MessageType.NEW_CLOCK (2048) –

a new clock was selected in the pipeline.

Gst.MessageType.STRUCTURE_CHANGE (4096) –

the structure of the pipeline changed. This message is used internally and never forwarded to the application.

Gst.MessageType.STREAM_STATUS (8192) –

status about a stream, emitted when it starts, stops, errors, etc..

Gst.MessageType.APPLICATION (16384) –

message posted by the application, possibly via an application-specific element.

Gst.MessageType.ELEMENT (32768) –

element-specific message, see the specific element's documentation

Gst.MessageType.SEGMENT_START (65536) –

pipeline started playback of a segment. This message is used internally and never forwarded to the application.

Gst.MessageType.SEGMENT_DONE (131072) –

pipeline completed playback of a segment. This message is forwarded to the application after all elements that posted GST_MESSAGE_SEGMENT_START posted a GST_MESSAGE_SEGMENT_DONE message.

Gst.MessageType.DURATION_CHANGED (262144) –

The duration of a pipeline changed. The application can get the new duration with a duration query.

Gst.MessageType.LATENCY (524288) –

Posted by elements when their latency changes. The application should recalculate and distribute a new latency.

Gst.MessageType.ASYNC_START (1048576) –

Posted by elements when they start an ASYNC Gst.StateChange. This message is not forwarded to the application but is used internally.

Gst.MessageType.ASYNC_DONE (2097152) –

Posted by elements when they complete an ASYNC Gst.StateChange. The application will only receive this message from the toplevel pipeline.

Gst.MessageType.REQUEST_STATE (4194304) –

Posted by elements when they want the pipeline to change state. This message is a suggestion to the application which can decide to perform the state change on (part of) the pipeline.

Gst.MessageType.STEP_START (8388608) –

A stepping operation was started.

Gst.MessageType.QOS (16777216) –

A buffer was dropped or an element changed its processing strategy for Quality of Service reasons.

A new table of contents (TOC) was found or previously found TOC was updated.

Gst.MessageType.RESET_TIME (134217728) –

Message to request resetting the pipeline's running time from the pipeline. This is an internal message which applications will likely never receive.

Gst.MessageType.STREAM_START (268435456) –

Message indicating start of a new stream. Useful e.g. when using playbin in gapless playback mode, to get notified when the next title actually starts playing (which will be some time after the URI for the next title has been set).
