Graphically: wait until the pipeline/playbin has reached PAUSED or
PLAYING state, then use

http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/gstreamer-GstInfo.html#GST-DEBUG-BIN-TO-DOT-FILE:CAPS



Alternatively: gst-launch-0.10 -v playbin uri=....

will usually also give you a good idea about what elements are involved
(check the element names when it prints the caps of the various pads).
