<a name="gst-plugins-base-plugins-audiorate.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>
This element takes an incoming stream of timestamped raw audio frames and
produces a perfect stream by inserting or dropping samples as needed.
</p>
<p>
This operation may be of use to link to elements that require or otherwise
implicitly assume a perfect stream as they do not store timestamps,
but derive this by some means (e.g. bitrate for some AVI cases).
</p>
<p>
The properties <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-plugins-audiorate.html#GstAudioRate--in" title='The "in" property'><span class="type">"in"</span></a>, <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-plugins-audiorate.html#GstAudioRate--out" title='The "out" property'><span class="type">"out"</span></a>, <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-plugins-audiorate.html#GstAudioRate--add" title='The "add" property'><span class="type">"add"</span></a>
and <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-plugins-audiorate.html#GstAudioRate--drop" title='The "drop" property'><span class="type">"drop"</span></a> can be read to obtain information about number of
input samples, output samples, dropped samples (i.e. the number of unused
input samples) and inserted samples (i.e. the number of samples added to
stream).
</p>
<p>
When the <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-plugins-audiorate.html#GstAudioRate--silent" title='The "silent" property'><span class="type">"silent"</span></a> property is set to FALSE, a GObject property
notification will be emitted whenever one of the <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-plugins-audiorate.html#GstAudioRate--add" title='The "add" property'><span class="type">"add"</span></a> or
<a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-plugins-audiorate.html#GstAudioRate--drop" title='The "drop" property'><span class="type">"drop"</span></a> values changes.
This can potentially cause performance degradation.
Note that property notification will happen from the streaming thread, so
applications should be prepared for this.
</p>
<p>
If the <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-plugins-audiorate.html#GstAudioRate--tolerance" title='The "tolerance" property'><span class="type">"tolerance"</span></a> property is non-zero, and an incoming buffer's
timestamp deviates less than the property indicates from what would make a
'perfect time', then no samples will be added or dropped.
Note that the output is still guaranteed to be a perfect stream, which means
that the incoming data is then simply shifted (by less than the indicated
tolerance) to a perfect time.
