Rendering Text?

[Stirling Westrup]

This seems like a dumb question, but if I have a file of text that I
want to render to the screen via something like the pango textrender
element, how do I build a pipeline for that?

I tried the obvious, and it doesn't work:

gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=text.txt ! decodebin ! textrender !
xvimagesink display=':5'

This gives me an error that it cannot determine the type of the stream.
