### Play a video (with audio)
`playbin` is a magical element that can play anything:
```
gst-launch-1.0 -v playbin uri=file://$SRC
gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri=file://$SRC
```
or, if you'd rather have more control of the pipeline:
This works with video, audio, RTMP streams, and so much more.
The 'bin' in 'playbin' means that under-the-hood, it's a collection of elements. For example, we can achieve the same thing by going to the next level of elements, which separate the decoding part from the playing part:
```
gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=$SRC ! decodebin ! playsink
```
Or, we can split down even further:
```
gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=$SRC ! \
