/**
 * Element interface that allows setting of media metadata.
 * 
 * Elements that support changing a stream's metadata will implement this
 * interface. Examples of such elements are 'vorbisenc', 'theoraenc' and
 * 'id3v2mux'.
 * 
 * If you just want to retrieve metadata in your application then all you
 * need to do is watch for tag messages on your pipeline's bus. This
 * interface is only for setting metadata, not for extracting it. To set tags
 * from the application, find tagsetter elements and set tags using e.g.
 * gst_tag_setter_merge_tags() or gst_tag_setter_add_tags(). Also consider
 * setting the #GstTagMergeMode that is used for tag events that arrive at the
 * tagsetter element (default mode is to keep existing tags).
 * The application should do that before the element goes to %GST_STATE_PAUSED.
 * 
 * Elements implementing the #GstTagSetter interface often have to merge
 * any tags received from upstream and the tags set by the application via
 * the interface. This can be done like this:
 * 
 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
 * GstTagMergeMode merge_mode;
 * const GstTagList *application_tags;
 * const GstTagList *event_tags;
 * GstTagSetter *tagsetter;
 * GstTagList *result;
 * 
 * tagsetter = GST_TAG_SETTER (element);
 * 
 * merge_mode = gst_tag_setter_get_tag_merge_mode (tagsetter);
 * application_tags = gst_tag_setter_get_tag_list (tagsetter);
 * event_tags = (const GstTagList *) element->event_tags;
 * 
 * GST_LOG_OBJECT (tagsetter, "merging tags, merge mode = %d", merge_mode);
 * GST_LOG_OBJECT (tagsetter, "event tags: %" GST_PTR_FORMAT, event_tags);
 * GST_LOG_OBJECT (tagsetter, "set   tags: %" GST_PTR_FORMAT, application_tags);
 * 
 * result = gst_tag_list_merge (application_tags, event_tags, merge_mode);
 * 
 * GST_LOG_OBJECT (tagsetter, "final tags: %" GST_PTR_FORMAT, result);
 * ]|
