Connect to the "notify::source" signal, then in the callbck retrieve the
source element via

  GstElement *src;

  g_object_get (uridecodebin, "source", &src, NULL);

  /* set your properties (check for existance of
   * property first if you use different protocols
   * or sources) */
  g_object_set (src, ...., NULL);

  gst_object_unref (src);
