 * @title: GESTimeline
 * @short_description: Multimedia timeline
 *
 * #GESTimeline is the central object for any multimedia timeline.
 *
 * Contains a list of #GESLayer which users should use to arrange the
 * various clips through time.
 *
 * The output types are determined by the #GESTrack that are set on
 * the #GESTimeline.
 *
 * To save/load a timeline, you can use the ges_timeline_load_from_uri() and
 * ges_timeline_save_to_uri() methods to use the default format. If you wish
 *
 * Note that any change you make in the timeline will not actually be taken
 * into account until you call the #ges_timeline_commit method.

 * ges_timeline_commit:

 *
 * When changes happen in a timeline, they are not
 * directly executed in the non-linear engine. Call this method once you are
 * done with a set of changes and want it to be executed.
 *
 * The #GESTimeline::commited signal will be emitted when the (possibly updated)
 * #GstPipeline is ready to output data again, except if the state of the
 * timeline was #GST_STATE_READY or #GST_STATE_NULL.
 *
 * Note that all the pending changes will automatically be executed when the
 * timeline goes from #GST_STATE_READY to #GST_STATE_PAUSED, which usually is
 * triggered by corresponding state changes in a containing #GESPipeline.
 *
 * You should not try to change the state of the timeline, seek it or add
 * tracks to it during a commit operation, that is between a call to this
 * function and after receiving the #GESTimeline::commited signal.
 *
 * See #ges_timeline_commit_sync if you don't want to bother with waiting
