Using gst-python with multiple pipelines

Yes, a small example that demonstrates the issue would definitely be
useful.

What I was trying to find out was if you are using (for example)
ximagesink, or perhaps some other video sink or perhaps appsinks.

X11/Gtk doesn't do multi-threading well, so one must take care not to do
anything X11/Gtk related from GStreamer streaming threads (like a sync
message handler).
