+ *
+ * This element will build a Json string that contain a desciption of the buffer and will convert Json string to a Qrcode
+ * The Qrcode contain a timestamp, a buffer number, a framerate and a extra-data that is custom
+ * Each frame will have a Qrcode overlay in video
+ * Some properties are available to set the postion and to define the size of it
+ * You can add custom data with the properties extra-data-name and extra-data-array.
+ * You can define quality of the Qrcode with qrcode-error-correction
+ * Also you can define interval and span of the extra-data-name and extra-data-array
