Spectrum seems different when porting from 0.10 to 1.0

[Victor henri]

Hello

Well I am using the very same code...! The display is different according to the Gtreamer version used... I have a doubt regarding the use of "gst_element_link_filtered" : I have the same result whatever I use it or not to link my elements. I will check that technically in another post, then see if the problem continues or not.

Thanks

I can lower the sensitivity of the microphone but in that case, I loose the interesting display...

This looks like a regression in spectrum. It wasn't really rewritten,
but it was refactored a bit and IIRC the API changed slightly too.
 
Take a look at the example in gst-plugins-good/tests/examples/spectrum
to see if you're still using it correctly. If you do, please open a bug
report at http://bugzilla.gnome.org with a testcase to reproduce the
different behaviours. Thanks!
