<p>
This base class is for video encoders turning raw video into
encoded video data.
</p>
<p>
GstVideoEncoder and subclass should cooperate as follows.
</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1">
<li class="listitem"><div class="itemizedlist">
<p class="title"><b>Configuration</b></p>
<ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>
    Initially, GstVideoEncoder calls <em class="parameter"><code>start</code></em> when the encoder element
    is activated, which allows subclass to perform any global setup.
  </p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
    GstVideoEncoder calls <em class="parameter"><code>set_format</code></em> to inform subclass of the format
    of input video data that it is about to receive.  Subclass should
    setup for encoding and configure base class as appropriate
    (e.g. latency). While unlikely, it might be called more than once,
    if changing input parameters require reconfiguration.  Baseclass
    will ensure that processing of current configuration is finished.
  </p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
    GstVideoEncoder calls <em class="parameter"><code>stop</code></em> at end of all processing.

      Base class collects input data and metadata into a frame and hands
      this to subclass' <em class="parameter"><code>handle_frame</code></em>.
    </p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
      If codec processing results in encoded data, subclass should call
      <em class="parameter"><code>gst_video_encoder_finish_frame</code></em> to have encoded data pushed
      downstream.
    </p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
      If implemented, baseclass calls subclass <em class="parameter"><code>pre_push</code></em> just prior to
      pushing to allow subclasses to modify some metadata on the buffer.
      If it returns GST_FLOW_OK, the buffer is pushed downstream.
    </p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
      GstVideoEncoderClass will handle both srcpad and sinkpad events.
      Sink events will be passed to subclass if <em class="parameter"><code>event</code></em> callback has been
      provided.
    </p></li>
</ul>

    GstVideoEncoder class calls <em class="parameter"><code>stop</code></em> to inform the subclass that data
    parsing will be stopped.
  </p></li></ul>
</div></li>
</ol></div>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Subclass is responsible for providing pad template caps for
source and sink pads. The pads need to be named "sink" and "src". It should
also be able to provide fixed src pad caps in <em class="parameter"><code>getcaps</code></em> by the time it calls
<em class="parameter"><code>gst_video_encoder_finish_frame</code></em>.

Things that subclass need to take care of:
