[gst-devel] My First Plugin - Help please

[Rahul Verma]

Hi,


>I am now busy trying to work out the following debug message:
>GStreamer-WARNING **: Element myframedvideo0 has an ALWAYS template sink, >but no pad of the same name

>Any pointers appreciated!  
>But I am now past the initial hurdles, many thanks for the help

I think this warning is because in you sink pad template, you must have mentioned the presence field of the pad as GST_PAD_ALWAYS and then not added a sink pad to your element. 

If you are sure that your element will have a sink pad, it is advisable to add a pad. If you are not sure about the presence of the pad, use GST_PAD_SOMETIMES in the presence field of the template. But to have buffer flow in the pipeline, you need pads connected to downstream pads.
