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






The :obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.ParentBufferMeta` is a :obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.Meta` which can be attached to a :obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.Buffer`
to hold a reference to another buffer that is only released when the child
:obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.Buffer` is released.

Typically, :obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.ParentBufferMeta` is used when the child buffer is directly
using the :obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.Memory` of the parent buffer, and wants to prevent the parent
buffer from being returned to a buffer pool until the :obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.Memory` is available
for re-use.
