You can pause each bin independently, and all elements within the paused bin will change their state. If you pause the pipeline you will pause both bins.

In pipeline, if i pause both the videos will also pause. thats the problem . -- View this message in context: <a href="http://gstreamer-devel.966125.n4.nabble.com/synchronize-2-parallel-pipeline-tp4656042p4656044.html" target="_blank">http://gstreamer-devel.966125.n4.nabble.com/synchronize-2-parallel-pipeline-tp4656042p4656044.html</a> <div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5">Sent from the GStreamer-devel mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org">gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel</a> </div></div></blockquote></div> -- ---- Héctor Canto
