And another note on the muxer. You can get the extension for caps by finding a
typefind factory for this type and getting the extensions that it handles.
That's not easy but it should work well. Also you could add a "filename"
property on the sinkpads IMHO.

And a note on the demuxer, don't push tags events downstream but use
gst_element_found_tags_for_pad() but only call it after you have caps on the
pad and sent a newsegment event.

That's actually the second thing that needs to be changed, you need to provide
proper newsegment events in both elements. The muxer should send a single one
in BYTES format and drop the ones from upstream, the demuxer should send one
for every srcpad in BYTES format and also drop the upstream ones.
