The <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-libs-gstvideooverlay.html#GstVideoOverlay"><span class="type">GstVideoOverlay</span></a> interface is used for 2 main purposes :
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc">
<li class="listitem"><p>
To get a grab on the Window where the video sink element is going to render.
This is achieved by either being informed about the Window identifier that
the video sink element generated, or by forcing the video sink element to use
a specific Window identifier for rendering.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
To force a redrawing of the latest video frame the video sink element
displayed on the Window. Indeed if the <a href="http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/GstPipeline.html"><span class="type">GstPipeline</span></a> is in <a href="http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/GstElement.html#GST-STATE-PAUSED:CAPS"><span class="type">GST_STATE_PAUSED</span></a>
state, moving the Window around will damage its content. Application
developers will want to handle the Expose events themselves and force the
video sink element to refresh the Window's content.
</p></li>
</ul></div>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Using the Window created by the video sink is probably the simplest scenario,
in some cases, though, it might not be flexible enough for application
developers if they need to catch events such as mouse moves and button
clicks.
</p>
<p>
Setting a specific Window identifier on the video sink element is the most
flexible solution but it has some issues. Indeed the application needs to set
its Window identifier at the right time to avoid internal Window creation
from the video sink element. To solve this issue a <a href="http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/gstreamer-GstMessage.html#GstMessage"><span class="type">GstMessage</span></a> is posted on
the bus to inform the application that it should set the Window identifier
immediately. Here is an example on how to do that correctly:

<a name="idp29094384"></a><h3>Two basic usage scenarios</h3>
<p>
There are two basic usage scenarios: in the simplest case, the application
knows exactly what particular element is used for video output, which is
usually the case when the application creates the videosink to use
(e.g. <span class="type">xvimagesink</span>, <span class="type">ximagesink</span>, etc.) itself; in this case, the application
can just create the videosink element, create and realize the window to
render the video on and then call <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-libs-gstvideooverlay.html#gst-video-overlay-set-window-handle" title="gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle ()"><code class="function">gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle()</code></a> directly
with the XID or native window handle, before starting up the pipeline.
</p>
<p>
In the other and more common case, the application does not know in advance
what GStreamer video sink element will be used for video output. This is
usually the case when an element such as <span class="type">autovideosink</span> or <span class="type">gconfvideosink</span>
is used. In this case, the video sink element itself is created
asynchronously from a GStreamer streaming thread some time after the
pipeline has been started up. When that happens, however, the video sink
will need to know right then whether to render onto an already existing
application window or whether to create its own window. This is when it
posts a prepare-window-handle message, and that is also why this message needs
to be handled in a sync bus handler which will be called from the streaming
thread directly (because the video sink will need an answer right then).
</p>
<p>
As response to the prepare-window-handle element message in the bus sync
handler, the application may use <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-libs-gstvideooverlay.html#gst-video-overlay-set-window-handle" title="gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle ()"><code class="function">gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle()</code></a> to tell
the video sink to render onto an existing window surface. At this point the
application should already have obtained the window handle / XID, so it
just needs to set it. It is generally not advisable to call any GUI toolkit
functions or window system functions from the streaming thread in which the
prepare-window-handle message is handled, because most GUI toolkits and
windowing systems are not thread-safe at all and a lot of care would be
required to co-ordinate the toolkit and window system calls of the
different threads (Gtk+ users please note: prior to Gtk+ 2.18
<a href="http://developer.gnome.org/devel/gdk/gdk3-X-Window-System-Interaction.html#GDK-WINDOW-XID:CAPS"><code class="function">GDK_WINDOW_XID()</code></a> was just a simple structure access, so generally fine to do
within the bus sync handler; this macro was changed to a function call in
Gtk+ 2.18 and later, which is likely to cause problems when called from a
sync handler; see below for a better approach without <a href="http://developer.gnome.org/devel/gdk/gdk3-X-Window-System-Interaction.html#GDK-WINDOW-XID:CAPS"><code class="function">GDK_WINDOW_XID()</code></a>
used in the callback).

<p>
Configure a subregion as a video target within the window set by
<a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-libs-gstvideooverlay.html#gst-video-overlay-set-window-handle" title="gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle ()"><code class="function">gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle()</code></a>. If this is not used or not supported
the video will fill the area of the window set as the overlay to 100%.
By specifying the rectangle, the video can be overlayed to a specific region
of that window only. After setting the new rectangle one should call
<a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-libs-gstvideooverlay.html#gst-video-overlay-expose" title="gst_video_overlay_expose ()"><code class="function">gst_video_overlay_expose()</code></a> to force a redraw. To unset the region pass -1 for
the <em class="parameter"><code>width</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>height</code></em> parameters.
</p>
<p>
This method is needed for non fullscreen video overlay in UI toolkits that
do not support subwindows.
