Buffers dropped due to temporal clipping

[Yogesh Tyagi]

In my plugin


start position in segment is getting updated through
gst_segment_set_newsegment() api from element_sink_event function when
GST_EVENT_NEWSEGMENT is received on the video sink pad.



and stop position in the segment is being updated on each buffer that is
received in element_sink_chain function through gst_segment_set_last_stop()
api.


is this correct?


Thanks,

Yogesh
