           Summary: switch element in switch plugin should be renamed
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal

     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


the switch element in bad is infact a "N-to-1 input switch" (as also the
gst-inspect tells). It would be good to rename the element in oder to also be
able to add a "1-to-N output switch" to the same plugin.

So what would be a good element name?
* input-switch (still ambigous)
* switch-Nto1
* input-select (makes clear that it selects 1 of N inputs)
