            Bug ID: 791391
           Summary: gl: error message when wayland display is not found
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git master
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-bad
          Assignee: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: vjaquez at igalia.com
        QA Contact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---

gstreamer-vaapi uses gst_gl_ensure_element_data() to get o create a GL display
if it is available.

The creation of a gl display in gst_gl_display_new() is a try-and-error
mechanism.

Since commit 472b8a37 not Wayland display is tried first in
gst_gl_display_new(). The problem is, if the windowing system is XOrg, an error
log message is printed in console:

0:00:00.263750821 22854 0x7fffec17aa80 ERROR              gldisplay
gstgldisplay_wayland.c:131:gst_gl_display_wayland_new: Failed to open Wayland
display connection.

The same happened, before commit 472b8a37, when running Wayland without
XWayland support.

My proposal is to demote the error level for the functions gst_gl_*_new() to
INFO or WARNING
