struct | GstRTPPayloadInfo

## Object Hierarchy

## Includes

    #include <gst/rtp/gstrtppayload.h>

## Description

The GstRTPPayloads helper functions makes it easy to deal with static and dynamic payloads. Its main purpose is to retrieve properties such as the default clock-rate and get session bandwidth information.

## Functions

### GST_RTP_PAYLOAD_IS_DYNAMIC()

    #define GST_RTP_PAYLOAD_IS_DYNAMIC(pt) ((pt) >= 96 && (pt) <= 127)

Check if `pt` is a dynamic payload type.

#### Parameters

pt | a payload type |

### gst_rtp_payload_info_for_name ()

    const GstRTPPayloadInfo *
    gst_rtp_payload_info_for_name (const gchar *media,
                                   const gchar *encoding_name);

Get the GstRTPPayloadInfo for `media` and `encoding_name` . This function is mostly used to get the default clock-rate and bandwidth for dynamic payload types specified with `media` and `encoding` name.

The search for `encoding_name` will be performed in a case insensitve way.

#### Parameters

media | the media to find |
encoding_name | the encoding name to find |

#### Returns

a GstRTPPayloadInfo or NULL when no info could be found.

### gst_rtp_payload_info_for_pt ()

    const GstRTPPayloadInfo *
    gst_rtp_payload_info_for_pt (guint8 payload_type);

Get the GstRTPPayloadInfo for `payload_type` . This function is mostly used to get the default clock-rate and bandwidth for static payload types specified with `payload_type` .

#### Parameters

payload_type | the payload_type to find |

#### Returns

a GstRTPPayloadInfo or NULL when no info could be found.

## Types and Values

### enum GstRTPPayload

Standard predefined fixed payload types.

Structure holding default payload type information.

#### Members

guint8 `payload_type`; | payload type, -1 means dynamic |
const gchar *`media`; | the media type(s), usually "audio", "video", "application", "text", "message". |
const gchar *`encoding_name`; | the encoding name of `pt` |
guint `clock_rate`; | default clock rate, 0 = unknown/variable |
const gchar *`encoding_parameters`; | encoding parameters. For audio this is the number of channels. NULL = not applicable. |
guint `bitrate`; | the bitrate of the media. 0 = unknown/variable. |
