CustomMeta
===================================================================

.. currentmodule:: gi.repository.Gst


.. versionadded:: 1.20




.. class:: CustomMeta(*args, **kwargs)
   :no-contents-entry:






Extra custom metadata. The ``structure`` field is the same as returned by
:func:`~gi.repository.Gst.CustomMeta.get_structure`.

Since 1.24 it can be serialized using :func:`~gi.repository.Gst.Meta.serialize` and
:func:`~gi.repository.Gst.Meta.deserialize`, but only if the :obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.Structure` does not contain any
fields that cannot be serialized, see :const:`~gi.repository.Gst.SerializeFlags.STRICT`.
