Thanks for clarification. So, can master branch be used on the RPi? I see a lot 
of fixes addressed Pi issues in commit log but it's unknown whether one should 
prefer raspberry or master branch. I guess that raspberry is there for 0.10 
compatibility and master is ready for RPi with GStreamer-1.0.

I also have a question on gst-omx module, would appreciate if you could give 
some hint on that. It's about OpenMAX sink implementation using tunneling 
and/or 'video_render'-like OpenMAX module. Is there any technical issues or 
serious difficulties in their implementation or it's a question of concept and 
resources? I consider implementing something like these elements, RPi examples 
don't look too difficult, but can't estimate well whether I'm able to do it by 
myself.
