Ok it solved one part of the problem. Specifying the blocksize for the 
filesrc, as mentionned in the mail of by Ronald S. Bultje, finish to solve my 
problem. 

Is there a simple mean to know the blocksize used during the recording ? I had 
to divide the total size of the file written by the number of iteration to 
find out that the byte per pixel used in this format is more or less 1.5 
which is quite strange for me.

Thanks for your help.
