They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.
This provides an audio-filter and video-filter property to allow
applications to set filter elements/bins. The idea is that these will
e
applied if possible -- for non-raw sinks, the filters will be skipped.
If the application wishes to force the application of the filters, this
can be done by setting the new flag introduced on playsink -
GST_PLAY_FLAG_FORCE_FILTERS.

Otherwise there's an interesting race condition when we destroy
the inputselector (actually it will be destroyed later when its state
change message gets destroyed) and afterwards release its sinkpad.
This is the code path when the last channel is removed from the
input selector.
Gave this warning sometimes, for chained oggs or whenever else
we change decode groups:
GStreamer-CRITICAL **: Padname '':sink_0 does not belong to element inputselector0 when removing
If a pipeline fails to preroll, it might happen that the sinks are
put into READY state from playbin's sink activation, but they are never
set to playsink, so they aren't being managed by a GstBin and will keep
their READY state until they are unreffed, leading to a warning.
Prevent this by always forcing them to NULL when deactivating a group

Otherwise we will remove the bus that would proxy messages to playsink
and never set it again. If the sink is already in playsink, all failures
are fatal anyway as it's either a sink that worked before or one that
was set by the user.

playbin will now only activate the sinks in a single place and
will never change the states of any sinks that are owned by
playsink.
Also handle text-sinks the same way as audio/video sinks inside
playbin.
This makes sure the application gets any context related messages and
can do whatever is required to a) get the sink a context or b) share
the context with other elements in the pipeline.
The proxying is necessary because the sink is not a child element of
playbin, but instead will at a later point be a child of some bin
inside playsink.

This allows to chose something else than input-selector
for multiple audio/video/text streams, e.g. an adder could
be used for audio.
It is needed for example to implement some of the more
advanced HTML5 video features.

Add the actual decoder/parser/etc caps at the very end to
make sure we don't cause empty caps to be returned, e.g.
if a parser asks us but a decoder is required after it
because no sink can handle the format directly.
