GstBuffer doesn't have a caps attribute anymore in 1.0. In the pipeline, 
the caps is now passed as an event and the current caps being used in a 
pad can be obtained with gst_pad_get_current_caps. It is assumed that 
the buffers flowing from/to that pad are of the type indicated by that caps.

Additionally, there is no GstSample which encapsulates a GstBuffer with 
a GstCaps that can be used when you need to have a caps attached to a 
particular buffer but it is not used for the usual flow of buffers in 
the pipeline.

A porting guide can be found at
