Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. His intent didn't make sense to
me until I read that he really wanted to combine streams of UDP
packets.

William, as there is no sink that I know of that will send UDP packets
in such a way that they then must be received by multiple udpsrc
elements, you must be doing something very interesting.

A) What is it that you're doing?

B) Are you certain you shouldn't be writing your own src specifically
for your application? You could skip having to have multiple udpsrc
elements and some bizarre element to combine them, and instead have a
well encapsulated gstreamer element written specifically for your
obscure situation. I don't think a generic combiner is a great idea.
