You don't mux this in any container. It seems that the result is a raw 
h264 bitstream. Perhaps use this instead:

gst-launch -v -e rtspsrc location=rtsp://localhost:8554/test ! 
rtph264depay ! matroskamux ! filesink location=test1.mkv

Also note that AVI is not suitable for h264 data. Use MKV (as shown 
above) or MP4 instead.
