[gst-devel] Multiple XVidio Windows

[Fredrik Persson]

Don't know if this helps, but...

You can only have one xvimagesink at a time. If you want to display two or
more running video streams you can only have one xvimagesink, and then use
ximagesink for the other one. (The difference is a "v".)

Of course, you can also use only ximagesink of you want.
