Streaming a window's contents

As a casual user, I'm not sure, but you're definitely missing a
muxer.  Based on the file extension you provided to 'filesink', looks
like you want 'qtmux' after 'x264enc'.  AFAICT, if you want to test it
with `gst-launch-1.0`, you'll also need `-e` option to send EOS when
you stop it with Crtl+C so that the MP4 file is correctly finalised
(some headers need to be written out).
Maybe others will be able to provide more help.
