You need to link the elements properly. gst_element_link_many connects the elements like a chain. In your example the following pipeline will be created: source1 -> decoder1 -> conv1 -> source2 -> decoder2 -> conv2 -> adder -> sink That does obviously not work. I would think that using two link calls should do the trick: gst_element_link_many (source1, decoder1, conv1, adder, sink, NULL); gst_element_link_many(source2, decoder2, conv2, adder, NULL); The first call builds the following pipeline: source1 -> decoder1 -> conv1 -> adder ->sink While the second call results in the following pipeline: source1 -> decoder1 -> conv1 -> adder -> sink source2 -> decoder2 -> conv2 -> Which is the pipeline you are expecting. Hope it works. Cheers, Paul
