When the resolution changes, the "caps" describing the stream change.
You can hook up to a pad after the parser (or the decoder) using
g_signal_connect (pad, "notify::caps, ...); and your callback will be
called when the caps change, you can then read the "caps" property to
find the latest ones and check if the things that interest you have
changed.
