> maximum XvImage size: 2048 x 2048

This is a limitation of XV (through xvimagesink), though I feel that we could
potentially have this handled in the caps negotiation, this way one could add a
software scaler (videoscale) in there and get it to scaledown if needed.

Meanwhile, you may want to try and work around with a pipeline like:

gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri=file:///a.png video-sink="videoscale !
video/x-raw,with=[1,2048],height=[1,2048] ! xvimagesink"

this will tell us if we are chasing the right issue. On my system the maximum
size is much larger, 8192 x 8192, so this pipeline is not a solution for all
systems.
