def Gst.Pad.query_position (self, format):
 #python wrapper for 'gst_pad_query_position'

Queries a pad for the stream position.

Parameters:
pad ( Gst.Pad ) –a Gst.Pad to invoke the position query on.
format ( Gst.Format ) –the Gst.Format requested

Returns a tuple made of:
( gboolean ) –TRUE (not introspectable) if the query could be performed.
cur ( gint64 ) –TRUE (not introspectable) if the query could be performed.

def Gst.Element.seek_simple (self, format, seek_flags, seek_pos):
 #python wrapper for 'gst_element_seek_simple'
 
Parameters:
element ( Gst.Element ) –a Gst.Element to seek on
format ( Gst.Format ) –a Gst.Format to execute the seek in, such as Gst.Format.TIME
seek_flags ( Gst.SeekFlags ) –seek options; playback applications will usually want to use GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLUSH | GST_SEEK_FLAG_KEY_UNIT here
seek_pos ( gint64 ) –position to seek to (relative to the start); if you are doing a seek in Gst.Format.TIME this value is in nanoseconds - multiply with Gst.SECOND to convert seconds to nanoseconds or with Gst.MSECOND to convert milliseconds to nanoseconds.

Returns ( gboolean ) :
TRUE (not introspectable) if the seek operation succeeded. Flushing seeks will trigger a preroll, which will emit Gst.MessageType.ASYNC_DONE.
