Yes, I suppose it might be nice to have bindings for such a general
purpose library.  But it seems like overkill for what I want, which is
just a simple way to read and write a particular file format.  Looking
at the gstreamer docs does not help much for me as the unfamiliar
jargon has my head spinning.  Perhaps there is someone on the list
familiar with gstreamer who can point the way to implementing
something simple like reading and writing AVI files?
