Hi Adam,

Sorry for the late response.

Seems 
  sink = gst_element_factory_make ("gconfvideosink", NULL);
returned NULL.

Could you please check if you have this element installed using this
command:
gst-inspect gconfvideosink

It will also be interesting to know how this element is configured.
Could you paste the output of:
gconftool-2 --get /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/videosink


Thanks!
