# gstnonstreamaudiodecoder

This base class is for decoders which do not operate on a streaming model. That is: they load the encoded media at once, as part of an initialization, and afterwards can decode samples (sometimes referred to as "rendering the samples").

This sets it apart from GstAudioDecoder, which is a base class for streaming audio decoders.

The base class is conceptually a mix between decoder and parser. This is unavoidable, since virtually no format that isn't streaming based has a clear distinction between parsing and decoding. As a result, this class also handles seeking.

Non-streaming audio formats tend to have some characteristics unknown to more "regular" bitstreams. These include subsongs and looping.

Subsongs are a set of songs-within-a-song. An analogy would be a multitrack recording, where each track is its own song. The first subsong is typically the "main" one. Subsongs were popular for video games to enable context- aware music; for example, subsong `#0` would be the "main" song, `#1` would be an alternate song playing when a fight started, `#2` would be heard during conversations etc. The base class is designed to always have at least one subsong. If the subclass doesn't provide any, the base class creates a "pseudo" subsong, which is actually the whole song. Downstream is informed about the subsong using a table of contents (TOC), but only if there are at least 2 subsongs.

Looping refers to jumps within the song, typically backwards to the loop start (although bi-directional looping is possible). The loop is defined by a chronological start and end; once the playback position reaches the loop end, it jumps back to the loop start. Depending on the subclass, looping may not be possible at all, or it may only be possible to enable/disable it (that is, either no looping, or an infinite amount of loops), or it may allow for defining a finite number of times the loop is repeated. Looping can affect output in two ways. Either, the playback position is reset to the start of the loop, similar to what happens after a seek event. Or, it is not reset, so the pipeline sees playback steadily moving forwards, the playback position monotonically increasing. However, seeking must always happen within the confines of the defined subsong duration; for example, if a subsong is 2 minutes long, steady playback is at 5 minutes (because infinite looping is enabled), then seeking will still place the position within the 2 minute period. Loop count 0 means no looping. Loop count -1 means infinite looping. Nonzero positive values indicate how often a loop shall occur.

If the initial subsong and loop count are set to values the subclass does not support, the subclass has a chance to correct these values. get_property then reports the corrected versions.

The base class operates as follows:

- Unloaded mode

  - Initial values are set. If a current subsong has already been defined (for example over the command line with gst-launch), then the subsong index is copied over to current_subsong . Same goes for the num-loops and output-mode properties. Media is NOT loaded yet.
  - Once the sinkpad is activated, the process continues. The sinkpad is activated in push mode, and the class accumulates the incoming media data in an adapter inside the sinkpad's chain function until either an EOS event is received from upstream, or the number of bytes reported by upstream is reached. Then it loads the media, and starts the decoder output task.
  - If upstream cannot respond to the size query (in bytes) of load_from_buffer fails, an error is reported, and the pipeline stops.
  - If there are no errors, load_from_buffer is called to load the media. The subclass must at least call gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_set_output_format there, and is free to make use of the initial subsong, output mode, and position. If the actual output mode or position differs from the initial value,it must set the initial value to the actual one (for example, if the actual starting position is always 0, set *initial_position to 0). If loading is unsuccessful, an error is reported, and the pipeline stops. Otherwise, the base class calls get_current_subsong to retrieve the actual current subsong, get_subsong_duration to report the current subsong's duration in a duration event and message, and get_subsong_tags to send tags downstream in an event (these functions are optional; if set to NULL, the associated operation is skipped). Afterwards, the base class switches to loaded mode, and starts the decoder output task.

- Loaded mode

  - Inside the decoder output task, the base class repeatedly calls decode, which returns a buffer with decoded, ready-to-play samples. If the subclass reached the end of playback, decode returns FALSE, otherwise TRUE.
  - Upon reaching a loop end, subclass either ignores that, or loops back to the beginning of the loop. In the latter case, if the output mode is set to LOOPING, the subclass must call gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_handle_loop *after* the playback position moved to the start of the loop. In STEADY mode, the subclass must *not* call this function. Since many decoders only provide a callback for when the looping occurs, and that looping occurs inside the decoding operation itself, the following mechanism for subclass is suggested: set a flag inside such a callback. Then, in the next decode call, before doing the decoding, check this flag. If it is set, gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_handle_loop is called, and the flag is cleared. (This function call is necessary in LOOPING mode because it updates the current segment and makes sure the next buffer that is sent downstream has its DISCONT flag set.)
  - When the current subsong is switched, set_current_subsong is called. If it fails, a warning is reported, and nothing else is done. Otherwise, it calls get_subsong_duration to get the new current subsongs's duration, get_subsong_tags to get its tags, reports a new duration (i.e. it sends a duration event downstream and generates a duration message), updates the current segment, and sends the subsong's tags in an event downstream. (If set_current_subsong has been set to NULL by the subclass, attempts to set a current subsong are ignored; likewise, if get_subsong_duration is NULL, no duration is reported, and if get_subsong_tags is NULL, no tags are sent downstream.)
  - When an attempt is made to switch the output mode, it is checked against the bitmask returned by get_supported_output_modes. If the proposed new output mode is supported, the current segment is updated (it is open-ended in STEADY mode, and covers the (sub)song length in LOOPING mode), and the subclass' set_output_mode function is called unless it is set to NULL. Subclasses should reset internal loop counters in this function.

The relationship between (sub)song duration, output mode, and number of loops is defined this way (this is all done by the base class automatically):

- Segments have their duration and stop values set to GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE in STEADY mode, and to the duration of the (sub)song in LOOPING mode.

- The duration that is returned to a DURATION query is always the duration of the (sub)song, regardless of number of loops or output mode. The same goes for DURATION messages and tags.

- If the number of loops is >0 or -1, durations of TOC entries are set to the duration of the respective subsong in LOOPING mode and to G_MAXINT64 in STEADY mode. If the number of loops is 0, entry durations are set to the subsong duration regardless of the output mode.

### Class structure

#### GstNonstreamAudioDecoderClass

Subclasses can override any of the available optional virtual methods or not, as needed. At minimum, load_from_buffer (or load_from_custom), get_supported_output_modes, and decode need to be overridden.

All functions are called with a locked decoder mutex.

> If GST_ELEMENT_ERROR, GST_ELEMENT_WARNING, or GST_ELEMENT_INFO are called from inside one of these functions, it is strongly recommended to unlock the decoder mutex before and re-lock it after these macros to prevent potential deadlocks in case the application does something with the element when it receives an ERROR/WARNING/INFO message. Same goes for gst_element_post_message calls and non-serialized events.

By default, this class works by reading media data from the sinkpad, and then commencing playback. Some decoders cannot be given data from a memory block, so the usual way of reading all upstream data and passing it to load_from_buffer doesn't work then. In this case, set the value of loads_from_sinkpad to FALSE. This changes the way this class operates; it does not require a sinkpad to exist anymore, and will call load_from_custom instead. One example of a decoder where this makes sense is UADE (Unix Amiga Delitracker Emulator). For some formats (such as TFMX), it needs to do the file loading by itself. Since most decoders can read input data from a memory block, the default value of loads_from_sinkpad is TRUE.

### Methods

#### gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_allocate_output_buffer

    GstBuffer *
    gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_allocate_output_buffer (GstNonstreamAudioDecoder * dec,
                                                        gsize size)

Allocates an output buffer with the internally configured buffer pool.

This function may only be called from within load_from_buffer, load_from_custom, and decode.

Parameters:

`dec` –

Decoder instance

`size` –

Size of the output buffer, in bytes

Returns –

Newly allocated output buffer, or NULL if allocation failed

#### GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder.prototype.allocate_output_buffer

    function GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder.prototype.allocate_output_buffer(size: Number): {
        // javascript wrapper for 'gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_allocate_output_buffer'
    }

Allocates an output buffer with the internally configured buffer pool.

This function may only be called from within load_from_buffer, load_from_custom, and decode.

Parameters:

`dec` ( GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder ) –

Decoder instance

`size` ( Number ) –

Size of the output buffer, in bytes

Returns ( Gst.Buffer ) –

Newly allocated output buffer, or NULL if allocation failed

#### GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder.allocate_output_buffer

    def GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder.allocate_output_buffer (self, size):
        #python wrapper for 'gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_allocate_output_buffer'

Allocates an output buffer with the internally configured buffer pool.

This function may only be called from within load_from_buffer, load_from_custom, and decode.

Parameters:

`dec` ( GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder ) –

Decoder instance

`size` ( int ) –

Size of the output buffer, in bytes

Returns ( Gst.Buffer ) –

Newly allocated output buffer, or NULL if allocation failed

#### gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_get_downstream_info

    gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_get_downstream_info (GstNonstreamAudioDecoder * dec,
                                                     GstAudioFormat * format,
                                                     gint * sample_rate,
                                                     gint * num_channels)

Gets sample format, sample rate, channel count from the allowed srcpad caps.

This is useful for when the subclass wishes to adjust one or more output parameters to whatever downstream is supporting. For example, the output sample rate is often a freely adjustable value in module players.

This function tries to find a value inside the srcpad peer's caps for format, sample_rate, num_chnanels . Any of these can be NULL; they (and the corresponding downstream caps) are then skipped while retrieving information. Non-fixated caps are fixated first; the value closest to their present value is then chosen. For example, if the variables pointed to by the arguments are GST_AUDIO_FORMAT_16, 48000 Hz, and 2 channels, and the downstream caps are:

"audio/x-raw, format={S16LE,S32LE}, rate=[1,32000], channels=[1,MAX]"

Then format and channels stay the same, while sample_rate is set to 32000 Hz. This way, the initial values the the variables pointed to by the arguments are set to can be used as default output values. Note that if no downstream caps can be retrieved, then this function does nothing, therefore it is necessary to ensure that format, sample_rate, and channels have valid initial values.

Decoder lock is not held by this function, so it can be called from within any of the class vfuncs.

Parameters:

`dec` –

a GstNonstreamAudioDecoder

`format` –

GstAudioFormat value to fill with a sample format

`sample_rate` –

Integer to fill with a sample rate

`num_channels` –

Integer to fill with a channel count

#### GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder.prototype.get_downstream_info

    function GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder.prototype.get_downstream_info(format: GstAudio.AudioFormat, sample_rate: Number, num_channels: Number): {
        // javascript wrapper for 'gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_get_downstream_info'
    }

Gets sample format, sample rate, channel count from the allowed srcpad caps.

This is useful for when the subclass wishes to adjust one or more output parameters to whatever downstream is supporting. For example, the output sample rate is often a freely adjustable value in module players.

                                             GstClockTime new_position)

Reports that a loop has been completed and creates a new appropriate segment for the next loop.

new_position exists because a loop may not start at the beginning.

This function is only useful for subclasses which can be in the GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_OUTPUT_MODE_LOOPING output mode, since in the GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_OUTPUT_MODE_STEADY output mode, this function does nothing. See GstNonstreamAudioOutputMode for more details.

#### GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder.set_output_format

    def GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder.set_output_format (self, audio_info):
        #python wrapper for 'gst_nonstream_audio_decoder_set_output_format'

Sets the output caps by means of a GstAudioInfo structure.

This must be called latest in the first decode call, to ensure src caps are set before decoded samples are sent downstream. Typically, this is called from inside load_from_buffer or load_from_custom.

This function must be called with the decoder mutex lock held, since it is typically called from within the aforementioned vfuncs (which in turn are called with the lock already held).

Parameters:

`dec` ( GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder ) –

a GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder

`audio_info` ( GstAudio.AudioInfo ) –

Valid audio info structure containing the output format

Returns ( bool ) –

TRUE if setting the output format succeeded, FALSE otherwise

                         guint subsong,
                         GstClockTime * initial_position)

Optional. Sets the current subsong. This function is allowed to switch to a different subsong than the required one, and can optionally make use of the suggested initial position. In case it chooses a different starting position, the function must pass this position to *initial_position. This function switches the subsong mode to GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_SUBSONG_MODE_SINGLE automatically. If this function is implemented by the subclass, get_current_subsong and get_num_subsongs should be implemented as well.

Parameters:

`dec` –
No description available
`subsong` –
No description available
`initial_position` –
No description available
Returns –
No description available

#### set_current_subsong

    function set_current_subsong(dec: GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder, subsong: Number, initial_position: Number): {
        // javascript implementation of the 'set_current_subsong' virtual method
    }

Optional. Sets the current subsong. This function is allowed to switch to a different subsong than the required one, and can optionally make use of the suggested initial position. In case it chooses a different starting position, the function must pass this position to *initial_position. This function switches the subsong mode to GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_SUBSONG_MODE_SINGLE automatically. If this function is implemented by the subclass, get_current_subsong and get_num_subsongs should be implemented as well.

Parameters:

`dec` ( GstBadAudio.NonstreamAudioDecoder ) –

`subsong` ( Number ) –
No description available
`initial_position` ( Number ) –
No description available
Returns ( Number ) –
No description available

#### set_current_subsong

    def set_current_subsong (dec, subsong, initial_position):
        #python implementation of the 'set_current_subsong' virtual method

Optional. Sets the current subsong. This function is allowed to switch to a different subsong than the required one, and can optionally make use of the suggested initial position. In case it chooses a different starting position, the function must pass this position to *initial_position. This function switches the subsong mode to GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_SUBSONG_MODE_SINGLE automatically. If this function is implemented by the subclass, get_current_subsong and get_num_subsongs should be implemented as well.

#### set_num_loops

    gboolean
    set_num_loops (GstNonstreamAudioDecoder * dec,
                   gint num_loops)

Optional. Sets the number of loops for playback. If this is called during playback, the subclass must set any internal loop counters to zero. A loop value of -1 means infinite looping; 0 means no looping; and when the num_loops is greater than 0, playback should loop exactly num_loops times. If this function is implemented, get_num_loops should be implemented as well. The function can ignore the given values and choose another; however, get_num_loops should return this other value afterwards. It is up to the subclass to define where the loop starts and ends. It can mean that only a subset at the end or in the middle of a song is repeated, for example. If the current subsong mode is GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_SUBSONG_MODE_SINGLE, then the subsong is repeated this many times. If it is GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_SUBSONG_MODE_ALL, then all subsongs are repeated this many times. With GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_SUBSONG_MODE_DECODER_DEFAULT, the behavior is decoder specific.

Optional. Sets the number of loops for playback. If this is called during playback, the subclass must set any internal loop counters to zero. A loop value of -1 means infinite looping; 0 means no looping; and when the num_loops is greater than 0, playback should loop exactly num_loops times.

## Function Macros

### GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_DECODER_CAST

    #define GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_DECODER_CAST(obj)        ((GstNonstreamAudioDecoder *)(obj))

### GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_DECODER_LOCK_MUTEX

    #define GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_DECODER_LOCK_MUTEX(obj)      g_mutex_lock(&(((GstNonstreamAudioDecoder *)(obj))->mutex))

Locks the decoder mutex.

Internally, the mutex is locked before one of the class vfuncs are called, when position and duration queries are handled, and when properties are set/retrieved.

Derived classes should call lock during decoder related modifications (for example, setting/clearing filter banks), when at the same time audio might get decoded. An example are configuration changes that happen when properties are set. Properties might be set from another thread, so while the derived decoder is reconfigured, the mutex should be locked.

Parameters:

`obj` –

base nonstream audio codec instance

### GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_DECODER_SINK_PAD

    #define GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_DECODER_SINK_PAD(obj)        (((GstNonstreamAudioDecoder *) (obj))->sinkpad)

Gives the pointer to the sink GstPad object of the element.

Parameters:

`obj` –

base nonstream audio codec instance

### GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_DECODER_SRC_PAD

    #define GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_DECODER_SRC_PAD(obj)         (((GstNonstreamAudioDecoder *) (obj))->srcpad)

Gives the pointer to the source GstPad object of the element.

Parameters:

`obj` –

base nonstream audio codec instance

### GST_NONSTREAM_AUDIO_DECODER_UNLOCK_MUTEX
