I'm back, with new informations !

So, I was trying to use vaapidecode for my project with 1.8 version, but as
mentioned in  this post
<http://gstreamer-devel.966125.n4.nabble.com/Vaapidecode-Format-and-OpenGL-tp4683302p4683317.html> 
, it is preferable to use 1.12.

I have uninstalled 1.8 version again, in order to install correctly 1.12. I
followed each step carefully, logged any "./configure ..." for each plugin,
and now it's working. I can get info on vaapidecodebin (I think it replaces
vapidecode in 1.12 ?).

If you are interested in the logs, I can send it. And just a few details, I
purged all the packets libgstreamer* and gstreamer* (before, I did a  backup
of apt
<https://askubuntu.com/questions/9135/how-to-backup-settings-and-list-of-installed-packages> 
), and after that I installed gstreamer-1.12, then plugins Base, Good, Bad
and then Vaapi (with `./configure ... && make -j$(nproc) && sudo make
install`)
