Details

The gtk:video widget is a widget to show a gtk:media-stream object with media controls.

Figure: GtkVideo

The controls are available separately as the gtk:media-controls widget. If you just want to display a video without controls, you can treat it like any other paintable and, for example, put it into a gtk:picture widget.

The gtk:video widget aims to cover use cases such as previews, embedded animations, and so on. It supports autoplay, looping, and simple media controls. It does not have support for video overlays, multichannel audio, device selection, or input. If you are writing a full-fledged video player, you may want to use the gdk:paintable API and a media framework such as GStreamer directly.
