I'm working on a GStreamer-based program using Python and the GObject introspection bindings. I'm trying to build this pipeline:
videomixer name=mix ! autovideosink \
uridecodebin uri=v4l2:///dev/video0 ! mix.
The pipeline works perfectly using gst-launch-1.0, but my Python program gives the errors:
(minimal.py:12168): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_link_pads_full: assertion 'GST_IS_ELEMENT (src)' failed
on_error(): (GError('Internal data flow error.',), 'gstbasesrc.c(2865): gst_base_src_loop (): /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin0/GstV4l2Src:source:\nstreaming task paused, reason not-linked (-1)')
My code:
#!/usr/bin/python3

gi.require_version('Gst', '1.0')
