My goal is to take the demo script "switch.py" and augment it to add a 3rd item to switch to after the pipeline has started (ie via interaction with the UI/user). Think of having a user be able to enter a new streaming source to pull from to add to their list of items they can switch back and forth. Things work great when I'm using videotestsrc as my sources (ie if I change my attached code to use videotestsrc instead of uridecodebin's). For clarity, if I make my dynmaically added uridecodebin a videotestsrc, this works without a problem. But if I set my user added src to be uridecodebin (as in the attached code) which is added to the pipeline after the startup of the pipeline, playback get's wonky, ie stuffer playback in 3rd uridecode, which also results in stuffer playback on my original items. I think this has something to do with clocking, which I'm still trying to comprehend how or what gstreamer wants to be done. </blockquote> The problem is that the newly added branch does not have any context. There are various workarounds that you can find in e.g. gst-plugins-base/tests/examples/dynamic. But as you can see, you can't really atomically set the base-time. It might work a little better by sticking your elements into a bin, then you only need to do the { paused, set_base_time, play } on the bin.
