[gst-devel] Multiple file encoding

Hello,

I am sort of new to gstreamer but have a basic understanding of it (I
think..). I have a problem that I am not sure what would be the
preferred direction to go with;
Essentially i need to be able to take multiple files and encode them
into one larger file, one after the other (but not in a MultiFileSrc
way) and eventually be able to encode multiple png files via
multifilesrc and one video file into one larger ogg/theora/vorbis file. 

The problem I am having is that my current efforts have been
concentrated in waiting for the MESSAGE_EOS message, removing the
current filesrc/decodebin and adding new ones that point to the new
file. This route has just led to quite a few problems, namely a lot of
segfaulting python and strange 'Fatal Python error: GC object already
tracked' errors.

At the moment I am wondering weather this is the right path to go down
or even whether gstreamer supports this kind of behaviour, although that
would shock me.. 

Can anyone please point me in the right direction or perhaps just point
me towards some example (hopefully pygst) source code that already does
this?

much regards,
