Struct mpeg2ts_reader::packet::Packet

pub struct Packet<'buf> { /* fields omitted */ }

A transport stream Packet is a wrapper around a byte slice which allows the bytes to be interpreted as a packet structure per ISO/IEC 13818-1, Section 2.4.3.3.

Methods

impl<'buf> Packet<'buf>

pub fn is_sync_byte(b: u8) -> bool

returns true if the given value is a valid synchronisation byte, the value 0x42, which must appear at the start of every transport stream packet.

pub fn new(buf: &'buf [u8]) -> Packet

Panics if the given buffer is less than 188 bytes, or if the initial sync-byte does not have the correct value (0x47). Calling code is expected to have already checked those conditions.

pub fn transport_error_indicator(&self) -> bool

pub fn payload_unit_start_indicator(&self) -> bool

a structure larger than a single packet payload needs to be split across multiple packets, payload_unit_start() indicates if this packet payload contains the start of the structure. If false, this packets payload is a continuation of a structure which began in an earlier packet within the transport stream.

pub fn transport_priority(&self) -> bool

pub fn pid(&self) -> u16

The sub-stream to which a particular packet belongs is indicated by this Packet Identifier value.

pub fn transport_scrambling_control(&self) -> TransportScramblingControl

pub fn adaptation_control(&self) -> AdaptationControl

The returned enum value indicates if adaptation_field(), payload() or both will return something.

pub fn continuity_counter(&self) -> ContinuityCounter

Each packet with a given pid() value within a transport stream should have a continuity counter value which increases by 1 from the last counter value seen. Unexpected continuity counter values allow the receiver of the transport stream to detect discontinuities in the stream (e.g. due to data loss during transmission).

pub fn adaptation_field(&self) -> Option<AdaptationField>

An AdaptationField contains additional packet headers that may be present in the packet.

pub fn payload(&self) -> Option<&'buf [u8]>

The data contained within the packet, not including the packet headers. Not all packets have a payload, and None is returned if adaptation_control() indicates that no payload is present. None may also be returned if the packet is malformed. If Some payload is returned, it is guaranteed not to be an empty slice.

pub fn buffer(&self) -> &'buf [u8]
