Facing problems running gstreamer element in pull mode

[Kapil Agrawal]

Are you trying to implement something as
gst-launch adaptivestreaming ! souphttpsrc ! decodebin ! sink ?

If yes then I doubt how could you do that as  souphttpsrc only has src pads.

I would have tried to make changes in the souphttpsrc element to implement
adaptive streaming inside it ?
