            Bug ID: 763457
           Summary: gstparse: element properties are contained in a
                    GstPipeline instead of a GstBin
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git master
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
          Assignee: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dv at pseudoterminal.org
        QA Contact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---

When running this pipeline:

  gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri=<URI> video-sink="identity ! autovideosink"

The "identity ! autovideosink" should be contained within a GstBin, which is
then the videosink. But instead, they are contained within a GstPipeline. The
result is a GstPipeline containing another GstPipeline. Worse, the sub-pipeline
has a pad.

This can probably lead to undefined behavior. Example:

  gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri=<URI> video-sink="decodebin ! autovideosink"

This never reaches the PLAYING state.

It would make sense to contain the elements in a GstBin instead.
