                          gboolean lock);

Add a pad to the collection of collect pads. The pad has to be a sinkpad. The refcount of the pad is incremented. Use gst_collect_pads_remove_pad() to remove the pad from the collection again.

You specify a size for the returned GstCollectData structure so that you can use it to store additional information.

You can also specify a GstCollectDataDestroyNotify that will be called just before the GstCollectData structure is freed. It is passed the pointer to the structure and should free any custom memory and resources allocated for it.

Keeping a pad locked in waiting state is only relevant when using the default collection algorithm (providing the oldest buffer). It ensures a buffer must be available on this pad for a collection to take place. This is of typical use to a muxer element where non-subtitle streams should always be in waiting state, e.g. to assure that caps information is available on all these streams when initial headers have to be written.

The pad will be automatically activated in push mode when pads is started.

CollectPads provides a default collection algorithm that will determine the oldest buffer available on all of its pads, and then delegate to a configured callback. However, if circumstances are more complicated and/or more control is desired, this sets a callback that will be invoked instead when all the pads added to the collection have buffers queued.

This function should be called with pads STREAM_LOCK held, such as in the callback.
