Don't these two checks check for the same thing? :)

You should check with GST_IS_MINI_OBJECT(), GST_IS_BUFFER(),
GST_IS_EVENT() etc.

GstObject is a proper GObject that derives from GObject. A GstMiniObject
is a new and completely different fundamental type that doesn't derive
from either GObject or GstObject.

Hope this helps.
