Slightly OT.

On the pitivi wiki I read that application developers are encouraged to
use GES (GStreamer Editing Services) instead of using GNonLin directly:
http://wiki.pitivi.org/wiki/GNonLin

Is this opinion shared by GStreamer developers?

Just for the records, cutting clips with GES is easy and can even be
done from ges-launch.

In the following example I am extracting a 15 seconds clip at time
1:30:32.

  $ ges-launch-1.0 input.avi $((1 * 60 * 60 + 30 * 60 + 32)) 15 -s -o output.avi

That said, API examples _are_ useful; sorry if I hijacked the thread
a little bit.

Regards,
   Antonio
