  Perfect, that means your code is fine from a gnonlin point of view.

  The problem you're facing is that most elements don't know how to
handle segments. GstBaseSink (and any implementations like xvimagesink)
*do* know how to handle that properly. Basically the encoder is choking
on that.

  You can solve that by inserting just after your gnlcomposition a
identity element with the 'single-segment' property set to True. This
will effectively:
  * Consume all incoming segments and only output one
  * Change the timestamps of the buffers to running time, making them
appear as a continuous stream of data.

  That should solve your issues.
