have thought that if your pipeline works with a UDP sink then sending the
'raw' SRT to the srtsink should work - you shouldn't need the
srt-live-transmit in the middle if the Gstreamer srtsink supports SRT
correctly.  In the same way you can use srt-live-transmit to retransmit udp
and pick that up with VLC, but if you ask VLC to pick the srt stream from
source it is quite happy to do it.

The only other thought I've had, and I'm sure you've checked, but
srtsink isn't about subtitles is it?  It is the biggest pain about the SRT
abbreviation is that it has two completely different uses in broadcast
media.
