<div dir="ltr">Hi, Timo:     If you don't mind trying playbin2, I know that it will emit signal `about-to-finish' while changing the playing stuffs to next. You can connect this signal and do works you want. Playbin hasn't this signal yet. Refer to <gst-plugin-base>/gst/playback/gstplaybin2.c for more details.

Like visualizations in music players, but instead of changing weird lines on the screen, I want to do things. Now I found out about playbin, but I can't get this to work, and can't find that much documentation about the subject with Python. This is a bit that I could figure out, but can't get any further: pipeline = gst.element_factory_make('playbin', 'playbin') vis = gst.element_factory_make("goom") pipeline.set_property('vis-plugin', vis) And if this is possible, can this also be done without writing a plugin for a music player? But just use my own program and use the soundcard or something to hear the sounds? This way I don't have to write a plugin for a couple of players but just use my own GUI.
