------- Comment #4 from Jonathan Matthew  2008-12-06 22:40 UTC -------
The approach I took in rhythmbox was to create the output stream myself and use
a giostreamsink, rather than letting giosink do it.  This way, if g_file_create
returns a G_IO_ERROR_EXISTS error, we can ask the user if they want to
overwrite and then use g_file_replace to create the stream.  Once this is all
done, we set the 'stream' property on the sink element.  This all takes place
during pipeline setup, so there's no need for communication between app and
streaming threads.

See the attach_output_pipeline function here:
