Problem with GStreamer tag information

[John Doe-48]

Hi, I've following problem with GStreamer tags, when pipeline is on playing state
all tag information(artists,title,duration etc.) is parsed without any problem by using bus message subsystem. How is it possible to get same information from file without playing?
And how is it to get tag_image from file(both of cases, when playing and ready states)?

I've get information from tag by using gst_tag_list_get_string function but what's the way
with image case?
ps. thanks for helping

code:     src = gst_element_factory_make("filesrc", "source");
             g_object_set(src, location, "path", NULL);
             gst_message_parse_tag(gst_message_new_tag(GST_OBJECT(src),tag_list), &tag_list);

    //Is this the way to get information without playing state???

to parse a file and retrieve its information, you need to have access to
its data.
to have access to data, you at least need to be prerolling, so in PAUSED
state
