I think you're right, but could you put this in bugzilla please?

http://bugzilla.gnome.org (component: gst-plugins-base)

Thanks!

(Btw, not sure what exactly you were trying to fix, and I only had a
very quick look at your code, but at first glance the shutdown sequence
doesn't seem ideal: as far as I can see it won't shut down cleanly with
an EOS making it through the recording bin; for ogg this just means that
in the worst case you're losing a few frames at the end; with other
muxers you might get slightly broken and/or indexless files).

Cheers
