I think we should support string from for the flags too, like we do in parse_launch(). I believe there is helpers for that. So we could:

  gst-play-1.0 --flags=video+audio

I really like this idea.

I have merged most of this and added support for specifying flags by name as well. I did not merge the verbose exception stuff, because I'm not sure how useful it really is in the context of playbin (even in gst-launch it was broken for about 10 years without anyone noticing, so clearly not so important). Can always be added later if needed.

tools: gst-play: verbose & playbin flags options support

Pushed without the exclude list, and with proper indentation.

Many thanks Tim-Philipp !

exclude list was pushed in order to be in sync with playbin way of doing, not used anyway on my side, so no problem on this.

Best regards,
Hugues.
