RTSP Server test-launch question

Hi All, maybe someone can help me.

I'm trying to set up an RTSP server which plays the video stream
directly from a file. I've been experimenting with test-launch:

./test-launch "( filesrc location=/home/joel/Downloads/ToS-4k-1920.mov !
qtdemux ! h264parse ! rtph264pay name=pay0 pt=96 )"

./test-launch "( filesrc
location=/home/joel/Downloads/Sintel.2010.1080p.mkv ! matroskademux !
h264parse ! rtph264pay name=pay0 pt=96 )"

I either case the pipeline fails to start correctly when vlc connects.
Looking at the debug output, it seems to be having trouble connecting
the demux element to the h264parse element. Is there meant to be some
other element in there?

Weirdly everything works fine if I do this:

gst-launch filesrc location=/home/joel/Downloads/Sintel.2010.1080p.mkv !
matroskademux ! h264parse ! decodebin ! autovideosink

...no problem connecting the demux to the h264parse elements.

This was all done with gstreamer 0.10 series, which is what was
available packaged in Ubuntu 13.10. Should I try gstreamer 1.0 series?
What's the most convenient way to get this without messing up my
distro's other gstreamer apps?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Best Regards
Joel Holdsworth
