Function Documentation

◆ CloseRecordedStream()

virtual void kodi::addon::CInstancePVRClient::CloseRecordedStream ( )
inlinevirtual

Close an open stream from a recording.

Remarks
Optional, and only used if PVRCapabilities::SetSupportsRecordings() is set to true.

◆ LengthRecordedStream()

virtual int64_t kodi::addon::CInstancePVRClient::LengthRecordedStream ( )
inlinevirtual

Obtain the length of a recorded stream.

Returns
The total length of the stream that's currently being read.
Remarks
Optional, and only used if PVRCapabilities::SetSupportsRecordings() is true (=> ReadRecordedStream).

◆ OpenRecordedStream()

virtual bool kodi::addon::CInstancePVRClient::OpenRecordedStream ( const kodi::addon::PVRRecording & recording)
inlinevirtual

Open a stream to a recording on the backend.

Parameters
[in]recordingThe recording to open.
Returns
True if the stream has been opened successfully, false otherwise.
Remarks
Optional, and only used if PVRCapabilities::SetSupportsRecordings() is set to true. CloseRecordedStream() will always be called by Kodi prior to calling this function.

◆ ReadRecordedStream()

virtual int kodi::addon::CInstancePVRClient::ReadRecordedStream ( unsigned char * buffer,
unsigned int size )
inlinevirtual

Read from a recording.

Parameters
[in]bufferThe buffer to store the data in.
[in]sizeThe amount of bytes to read.
Returns
The amount of bytes that were actually read from the stream.
Remarks
Optional, and only used if PVRCapabilities::SetSupportsRecordings() is set to true.

◆ SeekRecordedStream()

virtual int64_t kodi::addon::CInstancePVRClient::SeekRecordedStream ( int64_t position,
int whence )
inlinevirtual

Seek in a recorded stream.

Parameters
[in]positionThe position to seek to.
[in]whence[optional] offset relative to You can set the value of whence to one of three things:
Value int Description
SEEK_SET 0 position is relative to the beginning of the file. This is probably what you had in mind anyway, and is the most commonly used value for whence.
SEEK_CUR 1 position is relative to the current file pointer position. So, in effect, you can say, "Move to my current position plus 30 bytes," or, "move to my current position minus 20 bytes."
SEEK_END 2 position is relative to the end of the file. Just like SEEK_SET except from the other end of the file. Be sure to use negative values for offset if you want to back up from the end of the file, instead of going past the end into oblivion.
Returns
The new position.
Remarks
Optional, and only used if PVRCapabilities::SetSupportsRecordings() is set to true.
