+// This example demonstrates how to use GStreamer's query functionality.
+//
+// These are a way to query information from either elements or pads.
+// Such information could for example be the current position within
+// the stream (i.e. the playing time). Queries can traverse the pipeline
+// (both up and downstream). This functionality is essential, since most
+// queries can only answered by specific elements in a pipeline (such as the
+// stream's duration, which often can only be answered by the demuxer).
+// Since gstreamer has many elements that itself contain other elements that
+// we don't know of, we can simply send a query for the duration into the
+// pipeline and the query is passed along until an element feels capable
+// of answering.
+// For convenience, the API has a set of pre-defined queries, but also
+// allows custom queries (which can be defined and used by your own elements).
