I am not sure what is happening at that point, I would need to
investigate but first you should see what happens if 1. you disable
QoS and synchronisation on the sinks 2. what happens when rendering.

It stays frozen until the next slide transition, at which time it switches to a new frame, but the video is remains frozen.  The video never un-freezes.  On each slide transition, it simply displays a new frame but there is never any motion to the video ... it is always frozen on a single frame.

However, I have another project which constructs the GESTimeline programmatically, and then runs it inside of a GstPipeline.  You will find the applications logs (including Gstreamer logs) inside the folder (logs/*.log).

I see plenty of warnings in the logs/*.log file which I have saved off.  I wonder if those logs provide a clue about the problem that I'm facing.  I also saved off the pipeline graphs in the logs folder (including SVG files).
