<p>
The <a class="link" href="gstreamer-GstMeta.html#GstMeta" title="struct GstMeta"><span class="type">GstMeta</span></a> structure should be included as the first member of a <a class="link" href="gstreamer-GstBuffer.html#GstBuffer" title="struct GstBuffer"><span class="type">GstBuffer</span></a>
metadata structure. The structure defines the API of the metadata and should
be accessible to all elements using the metadata.
</p>
<p>
A metadata API is registered with <a class="link" href="gstreamer-GstMeta.html#gst-meta-api-type-register" title="gst_meta_api_type_register ()"><code class="function">gst_meta_api_type_register()</code></a> which takes a
name for the metadata API and some tags associated with the metadata.
With <a class="link" href="gstreamer-GstMeta.html#gst-meta-api-type-has-tag" title="gst_meta_api_type_has_tag ()"><code class="function">gst_meta_api_type_has_tag()</code></a> one can check if a certain metadata API
contains a given tag.
</p>
<p>
Multiple implementations of a metadata API can be registered.
To implement a metadata API, <a class="link" href="gstreamer-GstMeta.html#gst-meta-register" title="gst_meta_register ()"><code class="function">gst_meta_register()</code></a> should be used. This
function takes all parameters needed to create, free and transform metadata
along with the size of the metadata. The function returns a <a class="link" href="gstreamer-GstMeta.html#GstMetaInfo" title="struct GstMetaInfo"><span class="type">GstMetaInfo</span></a>
structure that contains the information for the implementation of the API.
</p>
<p>
A specific implementation can be retrieved by name with <a class="link" href="gstreamer-GstMeta.html#gst-meta-get-info" title="gst_meta_get_info ()"><code class="function">gst_meta_get_info()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
See <a class="link" href="gstreamer-GstBuffer.html#GstBuffer" title="struct GstBuffer"><span class="type">GstBuffer</span></a> for how the metadata can be added, retrieved and removed from
buffers.
