Debug with gstreamer plugin with gdb

[pvvv]

If you want to use gst-launch, run gdb on gst-launch:

gdb gst-launch-0.10

then set the command-line arguments to the appropriate pipeline:

set args videotestsrc ! ffmpegcolorspace ! autovideosink

then break wherever you want:

b gst_myplugin_chain

It will ask you if you want to set a pending break point on a function
that will be loaded later.  Say yes.

Should do it.

You can do it also using some IDE (eclipse, qt creator, codeblocks). To create simple pipeline you can use gst_parse_launch and then have a breakpoint wherever you want in C file.
