Debug output is not per line, but per debug sections. Debug sections are
define at the start of your element C file most of the time, sections
can be listed with any gstreamer application that handles parameters
correctly, e.g.:

        gst-inspect-1.0 --gst-debug-help

To enable debug, most people will use the environment variable, e.g.:
        GST_DEBUG=section:4,3
