[gst-devel] Having Problems with a modified hello world.

[Bob Doan]

Hi All,

I'm trying to make gstreamer convert mp3's to wav's

I can get it to work from the command line with 
gst-launch filesrc location=test.mp3 ! mad ! wavenc ! filesink 
location=test.wav

However I can't seem to make it work in c

It seems to fail on the gst_element_set_state and I'm not sure why

(my appologies if this is a really stupid question but I could not find
any documentation on how to do this)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks in advance

- Bob
