This looks like an issue with your installation. You have two plugins that both
contain/register an appsink element. This happens occasionally when plugins get
renamed or elements moved to other plugins, especially if you've installed
GStreamer from source (people tend to just do 'make install', but one does
'make uninstall' before updating/rebuilding/make install).

Basically, you need to find the offending plugin and remove it (and do a rm
~/.gstreamer-0.10/registry* for good measure).
