[gst-devel] Adding element to pipeline and linking elements failed

[Zelalem Sintayehu]

Hi all, I had a command line code to record video from network and it was working fine (it is listed below):
gst-launch udpsrc port=5000 caps="application/x-rtp,media=(string)video,clock-rate=(int)90000,encoding-name=(string)H263-1998" num-buffers=5000 ! queue ! rtph263pdepay ! 'video/x-h263,width=320,height=240,framerate=(fraction)25/1' ! queue ! avimux ! queue ! filesink location=test1.avi

So, I wanted to change this into a code so that I wanted to include it in my application and I failed. Please help me. I got an error on the gst_bin_add_many and gst_element_link_many functions. The code is presented below. Please help me. The error is the following:

(videorecorder:19632): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_bin_add: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (element)' failed
(videorecorder:19632): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_link_pads_filtered: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (dest)' failed

Thank you.
