Yes, I simply want to read the pipeline's output inside of my 
application. The pipeline should be feed with application input data as 
needed e.g. by callbacks. These apsrc/appsink plugins seem exactly to be 
what I need. But how is it possible to use those plugins? There's a 
documentation for them on gstreamer.org, but I can't even find the 
respective header files. What packages are needed on Debian? Anyway, 
however I think that I'd rather will not use them, because they seem to 
belong to the "bad" plugins. (?)
Preferably I would like to get it to work with fakesrc, handoff
callback, bus and sending e.g. GST_MESSAGE_APPLICATION for unblocking 
the gst_bus_poll() on every chunk. Could this be done that way?

Devman
