<p>This base class is for video encoders turning raw video into
encoded video data.</p>
<p>GstVideoEncoder and subclass should cooperate as follows.</p>
<div class="refsect3">
<a name="id-1.2.15.19.6.4"></a><h4>Configuration</h4>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>Initially, GstVideoEncoder calls <em class="parameter"><code>start</code></em>
when the encoder element
is activated, which allows subclass to perform any global setup.</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>GstVideoEncoder calls <em class="parameter"><code>set_format</code></em>
to inform subclass of the format
of input video data that it is about to receive. Subclass should
setup for encoding and configure base class as appropriate
(e.g. latency). While unlikely, it might be called more than once,
if changing input parameters require reconfiguration. Baseclass
will ensure that processing of current configuration is finished.</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>GstVideoEncoder calls <em class="parameter"><code>stop</code></em>
at end of all processing.</p></li>
</ul></div>
</div>
<div class="refsect3">
<a name="id-1.2.15.19.6.5"></a><h4>Data processing</h4>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem">
<p>Base class collects input data and metadata into a frame and hands
this to subclass' <em class="parameter"><code>handle_frame</code></em>
.</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: circle; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>If codec processing results in encoded data, subclass should call
<em class="parameter"><code>gst_video_encoder_finish_frame</code></em>
to have encoded data pushed
downstream.</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>If implemented, baseclass calls subclass <em class="parameter"><code>pre_push</code></em>
just prior to
pushing to allow subclasses to modify some metadata on the buffer.
If it returns GST_FLOW_OK, the buffer is pushed downstream.</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>GstVideoEncoderClass will handle both srcpad and sinkpad events.
Sink events will be passed to subclass if <em class="parameter"><code>event</code></em>
callback has been
provided.</p></li>
</ul></div>
</li></ul></div>
</div>
<div class="refsect3">
<a name="id-1.2.15.19.6.6"></a><h4>Shutdown phase</h4>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>GstVideoEncoder class calls <em class="parameter"><code>stop</code></em>
to inform the subclass that data
parsing will be stopped.</p></li></ul></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 should
also be able to provide fixed src pad caps in <em class="parameter"><code>getcaps</code></em>
by the time it calls
<em class="parameter"><code>gst_video_encoder_finish_frame</code></em>
.</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>Provide source pad caps before pushing the first buffer</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>Accept data in <em class="parameter"><code>handle_frame</code></em>
and provide encoded results to
<em class="parameter"><code>gst_video_encoder_finish_frame</code></em>
.</p></li>
</ul></div>
<p>The <span class="type">“qos”</span> property will enable the Quality-of-Service
features of the encoder which gather statistics about the real-time
performance of the downstream elements. If enabled, subclasses can
use <a class="link" href="gst-plugins-base-libs-GstVideoEncoder.html#gst-video-encoder-get-max-encode-time" title="gst_video_encoder_get_max_encode_time ()"><code class="function">gst_video_encoder_get_max_encode_time()</code></a> to check if input frames
are already late and drop them right away to give a chance to the
pipeline to catch up.</p>
