Generally speaking, gstreamer will only output to the console:
 - via the debug system, if you turn it on
 - via G_WARNING/G_CRITICAL: these are programming errors. Often in
gstreamer, often in applications. You should treat them as serious
problems that you need to fix.
 - Some specific plugins use libraries that output to the console;
gstreamer can't do anything about that. ffmpeg is a common culprit.
