You're creating an (empty) bin called 'uridecodebin'.

You wanted to create an instance of the 'uridecodebin' element (which
you may also have wanted to call 'uridecodebin', but that doesn't
really matter):

   GstElement *uriDecodebin = gst_element_factory_make("uridecodebin", NULL);

And 'download' is a boolean property - pass a gboolean, not a string, for that.
