`gst_util_uint64_scale()` is a utility function that scales (multiply

The bytes that for the buffer can be accessed with GST\_BUFFER\_DATA in

`GstBuffer` (Be careful not to write past the end of the buffer: you

allocated it, so you know its size).
|

In order access the memory of the buffer you first have to map it with

`gst_buffer_map()`, which will give you a pointer and a size inside the

`GstMapInfo` structure which `gst_buffer_map()` will populate on success.

`gstreamer-app-1.0` library, which is perhaps a better function to use

In order to get to the data pointer we need to use `gst_buffer_map()` just

like above, which will populate a `GstMapInfo` helper struct with a pointer to

the data and the size of the data in bytes. Don't forget to `gst_buffer_unmap()`

the buffer again when done with the data.
