[gst-devel] Query about Seek Event on the sink pad of a sink

[Zheng, Huan]

Thank you, I will try to send the seek event to element itself.
But will this seek event be handled by the sink_event_handler of the sinkpad? I will try.

  Yes, because you can NOT send events (like seek) that can't go in the
same direction as the pad you're sending to (sinkpad is downstream, seek
events are upstream).

  No because of the above.

  The proper way to do this is to send the event... to the sink element
itself (gst_element_send_event(...)).
