/**
 * SECTION:element-videomaxrate
 * @see_also: videorate
 *
 * This object will drop buffers that go beyond a certain buffer rate
 * (ie frame rate). It should work with any kind of data where each buffer
 * is independent. This currently means raw video frames and still image
 * formats.
 *
 * The framerate is computed using a moving average. The period over which this
 * average is computed is configurable using the "average-period" property.
