requested segment positions. Some elements might produce buffers that fall
outside of the segment and that might therefore be discarded or clipped.
Use case: FLUSHING seek
-----------------------
ex.
filesrc ! avidemux ! videodecoder ! videosink
When doing a seek in this pipeline for a segment 1 to 5 seconds, avidemux
will perform the seek.
When avidemux starts playback of the segment from second 1 to 5, it pushes
out a newsegment with 1 and 5 as start and stop times.
out a newsegment with 1 and 5 as start and stop times. The stream_time in
the newsegment is also 1 as this is the position we seek to.
The video decoder stores these values internally and forwards them to the
next downstream element (videosink, which also stores the values)

keyframe. It then continues to decode and push frames with timestamps >= 1.
When it reaches timestamp 5, it does not decode and push frames anymore.
The video sink receives a frame of timestamp 1. It takes the start value of
the previous newsegment and aplies the folowing formula:
render_time = BUFFER_TIMESTAMP - segment_start + element->base_time
It then syncs against the clock with this render_time. Not that
BUFFER_TIMESTAMP is always >= segment_start or else it would fall outside of
the configure segment.
Videosink reports its current position as:
current_position = clock_time - element->base_time + segment_time
Since after a flushing seek the stream_time is reset to 0, the new buffer
will be rendered immediatly after the seek and the current_position will be
the stream_time of the seek that was performed.
The stop time is important when the video format contains B frames. The
video decoder receives a P frame first, which is can decode but not push yet.
When it receives a B frame, it can decode the B frame and push the B frame
followed by the previously decoded P frame. If the P frame is outside of the
segment, the decoder knows it should not send the P frame.
Avidemux stops sending data after pushing frame with timestamp 5 and pushes
Avidemux stops sending data after pushing a frame with timestamp 5 and pushes
an EOS event downstream to finish playback.
