Hi Rossana,
I think you need an additional pad-added callback for your avidemux element.
I don't get the "incompatible pad" error message, but instead the
targetsrc and targetsrc2 pads from
GstPad *targetsrc = gst_element_get_pad(demuxer, "video_%02");
GstPad *targetsrc2 = gst_element_get_pad(demuxer, "audio_%02");
are NULL, because the demuxer srcpads are "sometimes" pads and
not available at this point.
So, add another on_pad_added callback and link your
video and audio decodebin there, depending on the type of the pad added.


Something like this:

// register the callback
g_signal_connect (demuxer, "pad-added", G_CALLBACK (on_demuxer_pad_added),
pipeline);

// the  demuxer "pad-added" callback
void on_demuxer_pad_added (GstElement *demuxer, GstPad *pad, GstElement
*pipeline)
{
  char* pad_name = gst_pad_get_name(pad);
  if(g_strrstr(pad_name, "video_00"))
  {
    GstElement* decvd = gst_bin_get_by_name(GST_BIN(pipeline), "decvd");
    GstPad *padV = gst_element_get_static_pad(decvd,"sink");
    gst_pad_link(pad,padV);
    gst_object_unref(decvd);
  }
  else if(g_strrstr(pad_name, "audio_00"))
  {
    GstElement* decad = gst_bin_get_by_name(GST_BIN(pipeline), "decad");
    GstPad *padA = gst_element_get_static_pad(decad,"sink");
    gst_pad_link(pad,padA);
    gst_object_unref(decad);
  }
  g_free(pad_name);
}
