Love the idea of gstreamer; HATE the execution

not-negotiated is translated to "Not negotiated" in english. It means that
srtsrc (the error emitter reported on previous line) is not compatible with the
set of element/capsfilter you have placed downstream to it (to the right).

Of course you haven't shared the pipeline, this was just a rant, and I assume
you didn't care, but sharing the pipeline you are using will allow us to help
you further.
