  I'm pretty sure everybody who replied to your questions assumed you
were doing that in the first place.

  People : Do not use gst_parse_launch() for anything more complicated
that "setup this pipeline and change its state". The moment you want to
start playing around with individual elements/pads, build the pipeline
yourself. It's not rocket science (as Wes mentions just below).
