But it's wierd for you to not have fakevideosink installed, can you install
it from gst-plugins-bad and Nicolas is the author of that. Since fakesink
is packaged with gstreamer installation, and fakevideosink needs
gst-plugins-bad, I'll just stick with fakesink to reduce dependency.
I would ask if we use fakesink, we might not need the videoconvert - but

This is what Laurent said, I looked up the docs, and
gst_element_factory_make returns a floating reference
> *Returns* ( [transfer: floating][nullable]) – new GstElement
<https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/gstreamer/gstelement.html#GstElement>
or NULL
<https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS>
if unable to create element
I guess I can just remove these four unrefs ?
Anyway, with those issues resolved, I think this is so close, and
