# GESTrack

A GESTrack acts an output source for a GESTimeline. Each one essentially provides an additional GstPad for the timeline, with restriction-caps capabilities. Internally, a track wraps an nlecomposition filtered by a capsfilter.

A track will contain a number of GESTrackElement-s, and its role is to select and activate these elements according to their timings when the timeline in played. For example, a track would activate a GESSource when its start is reached by outputting its data for its duration. Similarly, a GESOperation would be activated by applying its effect to the source data, starting from its start time and lasting for its duration.

For most users, it will usually be sufficient to add newly created tracks to a timeline, but never directly add an element to a track. Whenever a GESClip is added to a timeline, the clip adds its elements to the timeline's tracks and assumes responsibility for updating them.

### Constructors

#### ges_track_new

    GESTrack *
    ges_track_new (GESTrackType type,
                   GstCaps * caps)

Creates a new track with the given track-type and caps.

If type is GES_TRACK_TYPE_VIDEO, and caps is a subset of "video/x-raw(ANY)", then a GESVideoTrack is created. This will automatically choose a gap creation method suitable for video data. You will likely want to set restriction-caps separately. You may prefer to use the ges_video_track_new method instead.

If type is GES_TRACK_TYPE_AUDIO, and caps is a subset of "audio/x-raw(ANY)", then a GESAudioTrack is created. This will automatically choose a gap creation method suitable for audio data, and will set the restriction-caps to the default for GESAudioTrack. You may prefer to use the ges_audio_track_new method instead.

Otherwise, a plain GESTrack is returned. You will likely want to set the restriction-caps and call ges_track_set_create_element_for_gap_func on the returned track.

Parameters:

`type` –

The track-type for the track

`caps` ( [transfer: full]) –

The caps for the track

Returns ( [transfer: floating]) –

A new track.

#### GES.Track.prototype.new

    function GES.Track.prototype.new(type: GES.TrackType, caps: Gst.Caps): {
        // javascript wrapper for 'ges_track_new'
    }

Creates a new track with the given track-type and caps.

If type is GES.TrackType.VIDEO, and caps is a subset of "video/x-raw(ANY)", then a GES.VideoTrack is created. This will automatically choose a gap creation method suitable for video data. You will likely want to set restriction-caps separately. You may prefer to use the GES.VideoTrack.prototype.new method instead.

If type is GES.TrackType.AUDIO, and caps is a subset of "audio/x-raw(ANY)", then a GES.AudioTrack is created. This will automatically choose a gap creation method suitable for audio data, and will set the restriction-caps to the default for GES.AudioTrack. You may prefer to use the GES.AudioTrack.prototype.new method instead.

Otherwise, a plain GES.Track is returned. You will likely want to set the restriction-caps and call ges_track_set_create_element_for_gap_func (not introspectable) on the returned track.

Parameters:

`type` (GES.TrackType) –

The track-type for the track

`caps` (Gst.Caps) –

The caps for the track

Returns (GES.Track) –

A new track.

#### GES.Track.new

    def GES.Track.new (type, caps):
        #python wrapper for 'ges_track_new'

If type is GES.TrackType.VIDEO, and caps is a subset of "video/x-raw(ANY)", then a GES.VideoTrack is created. This will automatically choose a gap creation method suitable for video data. You will likely want to set restriction_caps separately. You may prefer to use the GES.VideoTrack.new method instead.

If type is GES.TrackType.AUDIO, and caps is a subset of "audio/x-raw(ANY)", then a GES.AudioTrack is created. This will automatically choose a gap creation method suitable for audio data, and will set the restriction_caps to the default for GES.AudioTrack. You may prefer to use the GES.AudioTrack.new method instead.

Otherwise, a plain GES.Track is returned. You will likely want to set the restriction_caps and call ges_track_set_create_element_for_gap_func (not introspectable) on the returned track.

When changes are made to the timing or priority of elements within a track, they are not directly executed for the underlying nlecomposition and its children. This method will finally execute these changes so they are reflected in the data output of the track.

Any pending changes will be executed in the backend. The commited signal will be emitted once this has completed.

Note that ges_timeline_commit will call this method on all of its tracks, so you are unlikely to need to use this directly.

Parameters:

`track` –

A GESTrack

Returns –

TRUE if pending changes were committed, or FALSE if nothing needed to be committed.

#### ges_track_set_timeline

    ges_track_set_timeline (GESTrack * track,
                            GESTimeline * timeline)

Informs the track that it belongs to the given timeline. Calling this does not actually add the track to the timeline. For that, you should use ges_timeline_add_track, which will also take care of informing the track that it belongs to the timeline. As such, there is no need for you to call this method.

Parameters:

`track` –

A GESTrack timeline (nullable): A GESTimeline

`timeline` –
No description available

#### GES.Track.prototype.set_timeline

    function GES.Track.prototype.set_timeline(timeline: GES.Timeline): {
        // javascript wrapper for 'ges_track_set_timeline'
    }

Informs the track that it belongs to the given timeline. Calling this does not actually add the track to the timeline. For that, you should use GES.Timeline.prototype.add_track, which will also take care of informing the track that it belongs to the timeline. As such, there is no need for you to call this method.

Parameters:

`track` (GES.Track) –

A GES.Track timeline (nullable): A GES.Timeline

`timeline` (GES.Timeline) –

#### GES.Track.set_timeline

    def GES.Track.set_timeline (self, timeline):
        #python wrapper for 'ges_track_set_timeline'

Informs the track that it belongs to the given timeline. Calling this does not actually add the track to the timeline. For that, you should use GES.Timeline.add_track, which will also take care of informing the track that it belongs to the timeline. As such, there is no need for you to call this method.

Parameters:

`track` (GES.Track) –

A GES.Track timeline (nullable): A GES.Timeline

`timeline` (GES.Timeline) –

#### ges_track_update_restriction_caps

    ges_track_update_restriction_caps (GESTrack * track,
                                       const GstCaps * caps)

Updates the restriction-caps of the track using the fields found in the given caps. Each of the GstStructure-s in caps is compared against the existing structure with the same index in the current restriction-caps. If there is no corresponding existing structure at that index, then the new structure is simply copied to that index. Otherwise, any fields in the new structure are copied into the existing structure. This will replace existing values, and may introduce new ones, but any fields 'missing' in the new structure are left unchanged in the existing structure.

For example, if the existing restriction-caps are "video/x-raw, width=480, height=360", and the updating caps is "video/x-raw, format=I420, width=500; video/x-bayer, width=400", then the new restriction-caps after calling this will be "video/x-raw, width=500, height=360, format=I420; video/x-bayer, width=400".

Parameters:

`track` –

A GESTrack

`caps` –

The caps to update the restriction-caps with

#### GES.Track.prototype.update_restriction_caps

    function GES.Track.prototype.update_restriction_caps(caps: Gst.Caps): {
        // javascript wrapper for 'ges_track_update_restriction_caps'
    }

Updates the restriction-caps of the track using the fields found in the given caps. Each of the Gst.Structure-s in caps is compared against the existing structure with the same index in the current restriction-caps. If there is no corresponding existing structure at that index, then the new structure is simply copied to that index. Otherwise, any fields in the new structure are copied into the existing structure. This will replace existing values, and may introduce new ones, but any fields 'missing' in the new structure are left unchanged in the existing structure.

For example, if the existing restriction-caps are "video/x-raw, width=480, height=360", and the updating caps is "video/x-raw, format=I420, width=500; video/x-bayer, width=400", then the new restriction-caps after calling this will be "video/x-raw, width=500, height=360, format=I420; video/x-bayer, width=400".

Parameters:

`track` (GES.Track) –

A GES.Track

`caps` (Gst.Caps) –

The caps to update the restriction-caps with

#### GES.Track.update_restriction_caps

    def GES.Track.update_restriction_caps (self, caps):
        #python wrapper for 'ges_track_update_restriction_caps'

Updates the restriction_caps of the track using the fields found in the given caps. Each of the Gst.Structure-s in caps is compared against the existing structure with the same index in the current restriction_caps. If there is no corresponding existing structure at that index, then the new structure is simply copied to that index. Otherwise, any fields in the new structure are copied into the existing structure. This will replace existing values, and may introduce new ones, but any fields 'missing' in the new structure are left unchanged in the existing structure.

For example, if the existing restriction_caps are "video/x-raw, width=480, height=360", and the updating caps is "video/x-raw, format=I420, width=500; video/x-bayer, width=400", then the new restriction_caps after calling this will be "video/x-raw, width=500, height=360, format=I420; video/x-bayer, width=400".

Parameters:

`track` (GES.Track) –

A GES.Track

`caps` (Gst.Caps) –

The caps to update the restriction-caps with

### Properties

#### caps

    “caps” GstCaps *

The capabilities used to choose the output of the GESTrack's elements. Internally, this is used to select output streams when several may be available, by determining whether its GstPad is compatible (see caps for nlecomposition). As such, this is used as a weaker indication of the desired output type of the track, before the restriction-caps is applied. Therefore, this should be set to a generic superset of the restriction-caps, such as "video/x-raw(ANY)". In addition, it should match with the track's track-type.

Note that when you set this property, the GstCapsFeatures of all its GstStructure-s will be automatically set to GST_CAPS_FEATURES_ANY.

Once a track has been added to a GESTimeline, you should not change this.

Default value: GST_CAPS_ANY.

Flags : Read / Write / Construct Only
