# Streams
This document describes the objects that are passed from element to

This document describes the objects that are passed from element to

## Stream objects
The following objects are to be expected in the streaming thread:
- events

- SEGMENT (SEGMENT)
- EOS * (EOS)
- TAG (T)
- `STREAM_START` (START)
- `SEGMENT` (SEGMENT)
- `EOS` * (EOS)

- buffers * (B)
Objects marked with * need to be synchronised to the clock in sinks and

pull-mode and pushing parsed/demuxed data downstream.
