I don't think this will work - how would the throttling be done
according to the desired timestamps?

To force a filesrc to operate in push mode, either do:

  filesrc location=xyz ! queue ! ...

or use:

  pushfile:///path/to/xyz ! ...


You might be able to achieve something similar to what you want using:

 filesrc location=foo.yuv ! videoparse ! identity sync=true ! ...

This probably won't do any latency reporting, so you'd need to set the
sinks to sync=false then or adjust the max-lateness.
