/* for people that are looking at this source: the purpose of these defines is
 * to make GstCaps a bit easier, in that you don't have to know all of the
 * properties that need to be defined. you can just use these macros. currently
 * (8/01) the only plugins that use these are the passthrough, speed, volume,
 * and [de]interleave plugins. so. these are for convenience only, and do not
 * specify the 'limits' of gstreamer. you might also use these definitions as a
 * base for making your own caps, if need be.
 *
 * for example, to make a source pad that can output mono streams of either
 * float or int:

    template = gst_padtemplate_new 
      ("sink", GST_PAD_SINK, GST_PAD_ALWAYS,
      gst_caps_append(gst_caps_new ("sink_int",  "audio/raw",
                                    GST_AUDIO_INT_PAD_TEMPLATE_PROPS),
                      gst_caps_new ("sink_float", "audio/raw",
                                    GST_AUDIO_FLOAT_MONO_PAD_TEMPLATE_PROPS)),
      NULL);

    srcpad = gst_pad_new_from_template(template,"src");
