I have a bin in a pipeline. With a src inside the bin and the sink outside.  If I try to link both with gst_element_link while the bin is playing, it doesn't work with 0.10.12 or CVS HEAD. It works fine with 0.10.11 and below.

I think its linked with the patch from bug #339326. Is linking running elements even supposed to work?

This small python script exhibits the problem:

import pygtk, gtk, gobject
import pygst
pygst.require("0.10")
import gst

def linkelem():
	src.link(sink)
	sink.set_state(gst.STATE_PLAYING)
	
gtk.gdk.threads_init()

pipeline = gst.Pipeline()
bin = gst.Bin()
src = gst.element_factory_make("videotestsrc")
sink = gst.element_factory_make("ximagesink");
pipeline.add(bin)
bin.add(src)
pipeline.add(sink)

# Works here
#linkelem()

pipeline.set_state(gst.STATE_PLAYING)

# breaks here
linkelem()

gtk.main()
