This is not a bug. It is a perfectly normal/expected failure. See my second
comment above.

This is also as expected (ximagesink supports only RGB, and fakesink will
accept anything) and does not indicate a bug in the above pipeline.

Are you saying this pipeline with *xvimagesink* succeeds? (note that you write
'ffmpeg & ximagesink' but the pipeline actually contains an xvimagesink).
