How I've done it;
- last element in pipeline is gdkpixbufsink
- get the pipeline bus, with get_bus(),
- connect a handler for the 'message' signal,
- in the handler, use get_structure().get_name() to check for
'pixbuf', and if so call get_proprty('last-pixbuf) on the
gdkpixbufsink element,
- in the main program, call pixbuf.savev to convert to PNG file.
Hope that helps.
