------- Comment #3 from Tim-Philipp Müller  2008-02-07 10:06 UTC -------
Random comments:

 - I wonder if it would make sense to use g_file_get_contents() for
   multifilesrc, it's likely to provide better error checking (this
   should be decided before the move, since it determines the filename
   encoding on win32).

 - same for multifilesink: use g_file_set_contents()?

 - would be nice if it was possible (in code, at least), to make
   multifilesrc read in a bunch of files that doesn't follow the rigid
   filename + index pattern. This could be done either by setting a
   fixed G_TYPE_STRV-type property which takes a list in advance, or
   by emitting some kind of "next" signal from the create function
   (I guess notify::index would do too, but it's not really particularly
   discoverable or intuitive), which the app could then hook up to and
   set a new filename. This stuff can always be added later of course.

 - same for multifilesink

 - multifilesink should probably error out, or at least send a warning
   message, if it receives more than one new-segment event.

 - seems to have some copy'n'paste leftovers (the lseek defines etc.)

Otherwise +1 for move.
