Class MediaTimeBase

java.lang.Object

com.sun.tv.media.MediaTimeBase

All Implemented Interfaces:

TimeBase

public abstract class MediaTimeBase
extends Object
implements TimeBase

This is the abstract base class to create a time base out of the media time of a component. e.g., this can be used to generate a time base from an audio device with reports time ticks as samples are played. A TimeBase ticks even when the media has stopped. This class takes care of that by internally maintaining a system time base that takes over when the media has ended. A TimeBase needs to be monotonically increasing. If the media time is set or wrapped around, this class will takes care of that.
