<p>A <a class="link" href="gdk3-GdkFrameTimings.html#GdkFrameTimings" title="GdkFrameTimings"><span class="type">GdkFrameTimings</span></a> object holds timing information for a single frame
of the applications displays. To retrieve <a class="link" href="gdk3-GdkFrameTimings.html#GdkFrameTimings" title="GdkFrameTimings"><span class="type">GdkFrameTimings</span></a> objects,
use <a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html#gdk-frame-clock-get-timings" title="gdk_frame_clock_get_timings ()"><code class="function">gdk_frame_clock_get_timings()</code></a> or <a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html#gdk-frame-clock-get-current-timings" title="gdk_frame_clock_get_current_timings ()"><code class="function">gdk_frame_clock_get_current_timings()</code></a>.
The information in <a class="link" href="gdk3-GdkFrameTimings.html#GdkFrameTimings" title="GdkFrameTimings"><span class="type">GdkFrameTimings</span></a> is useful for precise synchronization
of video with the event or audio streams, and for measuring
quality metrics for the applications display, such as latency and jitter.</p>
