This is correct for the following question:
- Do we have video (or image) decoders for given capability (such as
video/x-h264) ?
This patch should solve this question correctly.
But we are not verifying if the _pipeline_ works, for that we should
stick with previous implementation. It is not a problem to add the
parser I just think it'll add unnecessary complexity and could lead to
new errors (such as mentioned before, not having a decoder element while
having a parser element for that capability).
