In 0.10 tagdemux/id3demux had dynamic source pads. In 1.0 the source pad
always exists. So in short, you don't need to do the whole "pad-added"
any more in 1.0. If you have a static pipeline and just use the pad
added callback to connect id3demux to the next element, you can just
link those elements right away when you build the pipeline. If you add
more elements depending on the caps, you can g_signal_connect
(id3demux_srcpad, "notify::caps", ...) or maybe just use decodebin.
