## Functions

### gst_jpeg_parse ()

    gboolean
    gst_jpeg_parse (GstJpegSegment *seg,
                    const guint8 *data,
                    gsize size,
                    guint offset);

Parses the JPEG bitstream contained in `data` , and returns the detected segment as a GstJpegSegment.

Note that a valid segment may be returned with a length that exceeds the available data. It is up to the caller to make sure there's enough data available when parsing the segment.

#### Parameters

segment | pointer to a GstJpegSegment structure to fill in. | [out]
data | The data to parse |
size | The size of `data` |
offset | The offset from which to start parsing |

#### Returns

TRUE if a packet start code was found.

Since: 1.6

### gst_jpeg_segment_parse_frame_header ()

    gboolean
    gst_jpeg_segment_parse_frame_header (const GstJpegSegment *segment,
                                         GstJpegFrameHdr *frame_hdr);

Parses the `frame_hdr` JPEG frame header structure members from `segment` .

The caller must make sure there is enough data for the whole segment available.

#### Parameters

segment | the JPEG segment |
frame_hdr | The GstJpegFrameHdr structure to fill in. | [out]

#### Returns

TRUE if the frame header was correctly parsed.

Since: 1.6

### gst_jpeg_segment_parse_scan_header ()

    gboolean
    gst_jpeg_segment_parse_scan_header (const GstJpegSegment *segment,
                                        GstJpegScanHdr *scan_hdr);

Parses the `scan_hdr` JPEG scan header structure members from `segment` .

The caller must make sure there is enough data for the whole segment available.

#### Parameters

segment | the JPEG segment |
scan_hdr | The GstJpegScanHdr structure to fill in. | [out]

#### Returns

TRUE if the scan header was correctly parsed

Since: 1.6

### gst_jpeg_segment_parse_huffman_table ()

    gboolean
    gst_jpeg_segment_parse_huffman_table (const GstJpegSegment *segment,
                                          GstJpegHuffmanTables *huff_tables);

Parses the JPEG Huffman table structure members from `segment` .

The caller must make sure there is enough data for the whole segment available.

Note: `huf_tables` represents the complete set of possible Huffman tables. However, the parser will only write to the Huffman table specified by the table destination identifier (Th). While doing so, the `valid` flag of the specified Huffman table will also be set to `TRUE`;

#### Parameters

segment | the JPEG segment |
huff_tables | The GstJpegHuffmanTables structure to fill in. | [out]

#### Returns

TRUE if the Huffman table was correctly parsed.

Since: 1.6

                                    GstJpegQuantTables *quant_tables);

Parses the JPEG quantization table structure members from `segment` .

The caller must make sure there is enough data for the whole segment available.

Note: `quant_tables` represents the complete set of possible quantization tables. However, the parser will only write to the quantization table specified by the table destination identifier (Tq). While doing so, the `valid` flag of the specified quantization table will also be set to `TRUE`.

#### Parameters

                                    guint *interval);

The caller must make sure there is enough data for the whole segment available.

#### Parameters
