Description Ryan Hendrickson 2015-10-21 16:36:43 UTC 
(This is with the patch that I submitted in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=756154, for what it's worth.)

Any gst-launch, gst-inspect, etc. hangs on startup as long as libgstosxvideosink.so is in the plugin dir. When I manually remove it, problem goes away.

Running gst-inspect-1.0 with --gst-disable-registry-fork results in a segfault instead of a hang--progress, I suppose. The full log is too long to be uploaded but here's the last MAXLEN of it.
Comment 2 Matthew Waters (ystreet00) 2015-10-21 17:53:24 UTC 
I suspect this is due to the 
#ifndef GSTREAMER_GLIB_COCOA_NSAPPLICATION
sprinkled throughout the code which requires a patch shipped against glib in cerbero.

I don't believe that code has been actively tested in a long time.  The successor is poised to be glimagesink which I believe works both with and without the glib patch.

It also doesn't support OpenGL 3 core contexts at all (but that doesn't apply for OS X 10.6 ;)).
