<p>This base class is for parser elements that process data and splits it
into separate audio/video/whatever frames.</p>
<p>It provides for:</p>

</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>handles flushing</p></li>
</ul></div>
<p>The purpose of this base class is to provide the basic functionality of
a parser and share a lot of rather complex code.</p>
<p>Description of the parsing mechanism:</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1">
<li class="listitem"><div class="itemizedlist">
<p class="title"><b>Set-up phase</b></p>
<ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>
<a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> calls <em class="parameter"><code>start</code></em> to inform subclass that data processing is
about to start now.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
<a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> class calls <em class="parameter"><code>set_sink_caps</code></em> to inform the subclass about
incoming sinkpad caps. Subclass could already set the srcpad caps
accordingly, but this might be delayed until calling
<a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html#gst-base-parse-finish-frame" title="gst_base_parse_finish_frame ()"><code class="function">gst_base_parse_finish_frame()</code></a> with a non-queued frame.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
At least at this point subclass needs to tell the <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> class
how big data chunks it wants to receive (min_frame_size). It can do
this with <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html#gst-base-parse-set-min-frame-size" title="gst_base_parse_set_min_frame_size ()"><code class="function">gst_base_parse_set_min_frame_size()</code></a>.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
<a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> class sets up appropriate data passing mode (pull/push)
and starts to process the data.
</p></li>
</ul>
</div></li>
<li class="listitem"><div class="itemizedlist">
<p class="title"><b>Parsing phase</b></p>
<ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>
<a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> gathers at least min_frame_size bytes of data either
by pulling it from upstream or collecting buffers in an internal
<a class="link" href="GstAdapter.html" title="GstAdapter"><span class="type">GstAdapter</span></a>.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem">
<p>
A buffer of (at least) min_frame_size bytes is passed to subclass with
<em class="parameter"><code>handle_frame</code></em>. Subclass checks the contents and can optionally
return GST_FLOW_OK along with an amount of data to be skipped to find
a valid frame (which will result in a subsequent DISCONT).
If, otherwise, the buffer does not hold a complete frame,
<em class="parameter"><code>handle_frame</code></em> can merely return and will be called again when additional
data is available. In push mode this amounts to an
additional input buffer (thus minimal additional latency), in pull mode
this amounts to some arbitrary reasonable buffer size increase.
Of course, <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html#gst-base-parse-set-min-frame-size" title="gst_base_parse_set_min_frame_size ()"><code class="function">gst_base_parse_set_min_frame_size()</code></a> could also be used if a
very specific known amount of additional data is required.
If, however, the buffer holds a complete valid frame, it can pass
the size of this frame to <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html#gst-base-parse-finish-frame" title="gst_base_parse_finish_frame ()"><code class="function">gst_base_parse_finish_frame()</code></a>.
If acting as a converter, it can also merely indicate consumed input data
while simultaneously providing custom output data.
Note that baseclass performs some processing (such as tracking
overall consumed data rate versus duration) for each finished frame,
but other state is only updated upon each call to <em class="parameter"><code>handle_frame</code></em>
(such as tracking upstream input timestamp).
</p>
<p>
Subclass is also responsible for setting the buffer metadata
(e.g. buffer timestamp and duration, or keyframe if applicable).
(although the latter can also be done by <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> if it is
appropriately configured, see below). Frame is provided with
timestamp derived from upstream (as much as generally possible),
duration obtained from configuration (see below), and offset
if meaningful (in pull mode).
</p>
<p>
Note that <em class="parameter"><code>check_valid_frame</code></em> might receive any small
amount of input data when leftover data is being drained (e.g. at EOS).
</p>
</li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
As part of finish frame processing,
just prior to actually pushing the buffer in question,
it is passed to <em class="parameter"><code>pre_push_frame</code></em> which gives subclass yet one
last chance to examine buffer metadata, or to send some custom (tag)
events, or to perform custom (segment) filtering.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
During the parsing process <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html#GstBaseParseClass" title="struct GstBaseParseClass"><span class="type">GstBaseParseClass</span></a> will handle both srcpad
and sinkpad events. They will be passed to subclass if <em class="parameter"><code>event</code></em> or
<em class="parameter"><code>src_event</code></em> callbacks have been provided.
</p></li>
</ul>
</div></li>
<li class="listitem"><div class="itemizedlist">
<p class="title"><b>Shutdown phase</b></p>
<ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
<a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> class calls <em class="parameter"><code>stop</code></em> to inform the subclass that data
parsing will be stopped.
</p></li></ul>
</div></li>
</ol></div>
<p>Subclass is responsible for providing pad template caps for
source and sink pads. The pads need to be named "sink" and "src". It also
needs to set the fixed caps on srcpad, when the format is ensured (e.g.
when base class calls subclass' <em class="parameter"><code>set_sink_caps</code></em>
function).</p>
<p>This base class uses <a href="../html/gstreamer-GstFormat.html#GST-FORMAT-DEFAULT:CAPS"><code class="literal">GST_FORMAT_DEFAULT</code></a> as a meaning of frames. So,
subclass conversion routine needs to know that conversion from
<a href="../html/gstreamer-GstFormat.html#GST-FORMAT-TIME:CAPS"><code class="literal">GST_FORMAT_TIME</code></a> to <a href="../html/gstreamer-GstFormat.html#GST-FORMAT-DEFAULT:CAPS"><code class="literal">GST_FORMAT_DEFAULT</code></a> must return the
frame number that can be found from the given byte position.</p>
<p><a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> uses subclasses conversion methods also for seeking (or
otherwise uses its own default one, see also below).</p>
<p>Subclass <em class="parameter"><code>start</code></em>
and <em class="parameter"><code>stop</code></em>
functions will be called to inform the beginning
and end of data processing.</p>
<p>Things that subclass need to take care of:</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>Provide pad templates</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Fixate the source pad caps when appropriate
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Inform base class how big data chunks should be retrieved. This is
done with <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html#gst-base-parse-set-min-frame-size" title="gst_base_parse_set_min_frame_size ()"><code class="function">gst_base_parse_set_min_frame_size()</code></a> function.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Examine data chunks passed to subclass with <em class="parameter"><code>handle_frame</code></em> and pass
proper frame(s) to <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html#gst-base-parse-finish-frame" title="gst_base_parse_finish_frame ()"><code class="function">gst_base_parse_finish_frame()</code></a>, and setting src pad
caps and timestamps on frame.

</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
In particular, if subclass is unable to determine a duration, but
parsing (or specs) yields a frames per seconds rate, then this can be
provided to <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> to enable it to cater for
buffer time metadata (which will be taken from upstream as much as
possible). Internally keeping track of frame durations and respective
sizes that have been pushed provides <a class="link" href="GstBaseParse.html" title="GstBaseParse"><span class="type">GstBaseParse</span></a> with an estimated
bitrate. A default <em class="parameter"><code>convert</code></em> (used if not overridden) will then use these
rates to perform obvious conversions. These rates are also used to
update (estimated) duration at regular frame intervals.

addition to providing the data to be checked for a valid frame or an already
