Could not link autovideosink to filesink

[DanteDom]

Hey thanks for your help. I am very new so I appreciate the help.


Before asking for help I tried numerous different pipelines, one of which
was what you suggested below. With my Tcpclientsrc and one with videotestsrc
to see what would happen.


I get an error when I utilized "videotestsrc num-buffers=1 ! jpegenc !
filesink location=screenshot.jpeg"

"app_function Could not retrieve video sink"

I should mention that am utilizing a modified version of a Gstreamer
tutorial:  It can be found here.
<https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/tutorials/android/video.html?gi-language=c>  

When I attempt to add autovideosink, The error I get is: 

"gst_parse_perform_link could not link autovideosink to filesink"

I have tried so many different combinations and potential solutions that I
am beginning to believe I need to modify the original code in some form
further?
