Could you get a debug log with GST_DEBUG=decodebin*:6,playbin*:6 ? Most
likely this means that during autoplugging decodebin either considers
your element as not compatible with the stream (due to caps or
ACCEPT_CAPS query), or it does not go to READY state. This should be
visible from the debug logs, especially decodebin should first try your
decoder there and then fall back to the software one.
