Hi,

Following the thread:
Re: [gst-devel] osxvideosink: how to get the window id?

I tried all the native video sinks than can be built on osx and could
not get a single one of them to work:

$ gst-launch videotestsrc ! autovideosink
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
Pipeline is PREROLLING ...
Bus error

$ gst-launch videotestsrc ! osxvideosink
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
Pipeline is PREROLLING ...
Bus error

$ gst-launch videotestsrc ! sdlvideosink
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...

How is one supposed to display video natively on osx?

The ximagesink does work but this is not what I am looking for as it
requires an X11 server (non native).
Also FYI: the xvimagesink fails with a cryptic port error:
get_xvimagesink_get_xv_support():
/GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstXvImageSink:xvimagesink0:
No port available

Thanks
Antoine
