           Summary: playbin should post an error on the bus on unknown input
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Currently if you give playbin something unrecognizable like a html file as
input, you get the following output and no message at all on the bus:
** (lt-vidplay:26296): WARNING **: no type on pad decoder:src0

Instead of that it should probably send an error message to the bus so the
application can handle it.
