Thanks again for that.The problem though is that the
gst_typefind_helper_for_buffer() function needs to be called in the
decryptor's chain functionso it has a buffer to work with ; but the chain
function never gets called because of the infinite pipeline building. It's a
catch 22. Can you think of any way round that?Regards,   Martin.
