This is not easy to answer in a short mail. The nice aspect of
ximagesink and xvimagsink is, that gstreamer can render on-behalf of the
application from a separate thread. Afaik for gl the normally only works
if the glsink owns the cl context (like glimagesink). If you have a gl
app and the video should be part of it, its more complicated. The
application will need to do the rendering and you need to push the
decoded buffers or textures over to the application. Thats as much as I
can tell about it, maybe someone else with more knowledge here can take
over.
