Build such a pipeline first:=20

filesrc ! tee ! fakesink

You'd better add queue element to the front and end of tee:

filesrc ! queue ! tee ! queue ! fakesink

Then the pipeline will run more smoothly.

Then add filesink into the pipeline in you event/signal handler and link
it with the tee.

You should set the pipeline to PAUSED before add new element, and set to
PLAYING after add and link.=20

Beforce set pipeline to PLAYING, you should set the new element's state
to PAUSED or PLAYING to sync with the rest of the pipeline.
