I am trying to read subtitle from a video and want to record the timestamp
of the subtitled text in the gstreamer pipeline.
One approach that I have been trying is with the getting the action signal
on playbin for "get-text-pad"
and attaching a probe on the pad. Eventually when the callback
(cb_have_data) is called, I do see the text in the buffer dumped on console.

However, I notice that the subtitle on the final rendered video and the one
dumped from the probe callback are out of sync.
Can someone pls suggest how to get the timestamp of the subtitled text from
the stream or received a sync'ed stream or any other approach.


Gracias

below is some relevant stripped code that uses the playbin element (using
gstreamer 1.0)

main() {

// creating the playbin element and setting flags to also play sub-titles
...
...
..
...

g_signal_emit_by_name (data->playbin, "get-text-pad", 0, &txt_pad);
if(txt_pad) {
printf("\nwe have a text pad");
*c**a_pad_data(txt_pad);*
}

}


///////////////////////////////////////
// When text pad is added, the below function will attach a probe

*void cb_pad_added(GstPad* pd) {*
*  gchar *name;*
*  GstCaps *caps = NULL;*

*  name = gst_pad_get_name (pd);*
*  g_print ("\nA new pad %s was created\n", name);*
