Refreshing video after a zoom/unzoom like process using GTK

[Jack D]

Problem solved. It was much simpler than I imagined. Thank you very much,
Sebastian and Russel.

old code: (I have two videos but only including details for one to save
post length)

  vid_win1 = gtk_drawing_area_new ();
  gtk_widget_set_double_buffered (vid_win1, FALSE);
  g_signal_connect (vid_win1, "realize", G_CALLBACK (realize_cb),
data->pipe1);

new code:
// note: pipe1 is a playbin, vidwin1 is a GtkWidget
GstElement data.sink1 = gst_element_factory_make ("gtksink", "sink1");
g_object_get (data->sink1, "widget", &vid_win1, NULL);
g_object_set (data->pipe1, "video_sink", data->sink1, NULL);
gtk_widget_set_double_buffered (vid_win1, FALSE);

// No longer need call back to set up window overlay.
//  g_signal_connect (vid_win1, "realize", G_CALLBACK (realize_cb),
data->pipe1);
