You could look at the upstream mozilla work to use gstreamer in the
<video> element.
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=422540

In Songbird, I directly embed GStreamer video into a XUL window (using
high-performance native sinks, unlike the mozilla effort above). You
could look at that code too.
