[gst-devel] How to tell if gstreamer can play a file (Create pipeline)

[Ash]

Hello,
I want my application to tell me if a certain file or uri is playable by gstreamer (meaning the system has the appropriate codecs and can create a full pipeline). 
 
Something like "bool isPlayable(const char* uri)".
 
Is there a quick way to do this with gstreamer? Sort of like a gst_test_pipeline function?
 
Thanks!
