Import Error when Integrating Qt and GStreamer.

[Matthew Waters]

Ah, so your problem is use with the Qt designer not showing finding the 
relevant qml code.  That use case is currently not supported by qmlglsink.

The issue is that the necessary QML item is contained within the 
qmlglsink element itself and is registered dynamically when the element 
itself is instantiated.  Qt designer doesn't know anything about 
GStreamer so cannot perform this initialisation for you. There are no 
qmldir or qmltype files for qmlglsink.

The 'fix' involves are rather complicated restructure of the qmlglsink 
element to support placing the qml part/plugin in a separate .so that is 
findable with Qt tools (using qmldir or whatever).

Cheers
-Matt
