Using gst_object_unref

[lijinshyam]

Hi..

   I just confused about the "Hello World " example in the gstreamer manual.  I can see a pipeline and some elements are created in code. In the end the  pipeline is unrefed , using the method gst_object_unref(pipeline). What what about the elements we created...?  Its there and the reference count of the elements doesn't seems decremented....

In chapter 5.2 . its says we need to use gst-object_unref  for elements also


Regards,
Lijin

if you use

  gst_bin_add (bin_or_pipeline, element);

then the bin/pipeline will take ownership of the element (if it is a
newly-created element) and will take care of freeing it when the
pipeline is freed. Also see
