[gst-devel] Deadloop when trying to link a tee with 3 sinks.

[Peter Cai]

Now I am quite sure this is a bug, try this:

C:\gstreamer\bin>gst-launch-0.10.exe filesrc
location="e:\\gst\\vivs_basic_test\\bin\\Debug\\bunny_mpeg4.mp4" !
decodebin ! ffmpegcolorspace ! tee name=tee1 ! queue ! directdrawsink
tee1. ! queue ! directdrawsink tee1. ! queue ! directdrawsink

gst-launch will be blocked until you force it to quit.

BUT, if you remove the last directdrawsink, it works just fine.
