Yeah, well, I don't think I'm not going to start "fixing" American English vs.
British English spelling, seems a bit pointless.


> What is the meaning of this phrase: "application against the uninstalled
> location."? Here:
> http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/section-helloworld-compilerun.html

Looks like a copy'n'paste artifact. Fixed.


> "a specific stream-property related to progress tracking", maybe unnecessary
> dash? Here:
> http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/chapter-queryevents.html#section-querying

Agreed, fixed.


> "XVImageSink", I think it should be "XvImageSink", here:
> http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/section-interfaces-proprobe.html

Changed to XVideo, that seemed more consistent.


> "all plugins that implement a typefinder. when one of the typefinders
> recognizes the stream", I think that "When" should start with capital letter,
> here:
> http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/section-typefinding.html

Fixed.


> "can set the GOBject property", "GObject" should be, here: 
> http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/section-dparams-parameters.html

Fixed.


> "will disable color debugging You can also set", dot is missing; "Note that if
> you are disabling color purely to avoid messing up your pager output, trying
> using less -R.", strange sentence, maybe there should be "try" instead of
> "trying"? All is here:

Fixed and Fixed.
