Since someone else also encountered the issue and described it nicely in
mailing-list, copy-pasting the description here:
"I am using an appsink on a playbin2 element to get raw decoded frames for a
video. Whenever the first file in my playlist is done playing (hits EOS
signal), I try to set the state to NULL (then change the playbin "uri" property
to go to the next video) and then back to PLAYING from my main thread, but
setting the state to playing always returns ASYNC and no amount of timeout to
get_state() after that seems to be enough for it to go to playing state, it
just blocks forever. When I don't use an appsink and just send the video
directly to a normal video sink (e.g. glimagesink), it works as expected."
