That's interesting. I'm using it right now with no flickering. There's some when you resize a window, but I'm not entirely surprised by that. Did you build it yourself? If you're using ossbuild, try using d3dvideosink (direct 3d video sink) instead. It's still being prepared to be submitted upstream to gstreamer, but it's available in ossbuild. That may prove better than the aging directdrawsink. There's also dshowvideosink (direct show video sink).
