Event.step


Description:

[ CCode ( has_construct_function = false ) ]
public Event.step (Format format, uint64 amount, double rate, bool flush, bool intermediate)

Create a new step event.

The purpose of the step event is to instruct a sink to skip amount (expressed in format) of media. It can be used to implement stepping through the video frame by frame or for doing fast trick modes.

A rate of <= 0.0 is not allowed. Pause the pipeline, for the effect of rate = 0.0 or first reverse the direction of playback using a seek event to get the same effect as rate < 0.0.

The flush flag will clear any pending data in the pipeline before starting the step operation.

The intermediate flag instructs the pipeline that this step operation is part of a larger step operation.

Parameters:

format

the format of amount

amount

the amount of data to step

rate

the step rate

flush

flushing steps

intermediate

intermediate steps

Returns:

a new Event
