Python is 3.5

Gstreamer is gst-uninstalled, built from master - but with the patch on this
issue.




I'm building a video wall.


Users can choose videos or images.


Images + videos are downloaded and the pi continually plays a playlist of files
it has downloaded.

The pis play the videos at the same time, with one pi controlling the others
("play this video", "seek to this time") sort of thing.


The screens are small (480x800) ... so instead of using videocrop (which
doesn't seem to have hardware acceleration on pis, I'm creating a larger than
screen window and moving it - videos we've tested seem to play ok.


Short version:  I'm aiming for continual playback of a set of images and videos
without any user interaction on the pi side.


@Enrique's patch seems to fix things when playing a test video, but I need to
try with images, as I saw a similar looking message when testing images
earlier.


I'll try and come up with a small testcase.
