Extra buffer metadata describing image properties
This meta can also be used by downstream elements to specifiy their buffer layout requirements for upstream. Upstream should try to fit those requirements, if possible, in order to prevent buffer copies.
This is done by passing a custom #GstStructure to gst.query.Query.addAllocationMeta when handling the ALLOCATION query. This structure should be named 'video-meta' and can have the following fields:
- padding-top (uint): extra pixels on the top
- padding-bottom (uint): extra pixels on the bottom
- padding-left (uint): extra pixels on the left side
- padding-right (uint): extra pixels on the right side The padding fields have the same semantic as #GstVideoMeta.alignment and so represent the paddings requested on produced video buffers.
Since 1.24 it can be serialized using gst.meta.Meta.serialize and gst.meta.Meta.deserialize.
