Let's take back a step. Cold you explain in some more detail what you
are trying to implement or achieve exactly? Then we can give advice how
to best do that.

For things like gapless/seamless playback or looping you can use the
GST_SEEK_FLAG_SEGMENT, then your app will get a SEGMENT_DONE message on
the bus as soon as the source/parser/demuxer is done processing data,
and then you can do another (non-flushing) seek to output more data. If
that's what you want I don't know though :)

Cheers
