Good catch. This shows there is no video/x-surface decoder available. Off to 
find which plugin I need...

I should have thought of trying that. Thanks! I'll have to find out why my 
gstreamer error handler isn't spotting the problem!

I'm using appsink to give me access to the raw pixel data which I then 
glTexSubImage into a texture. I'm using appsink as I've got legacy code that 
uses it for an SDL app. I may try and switch to gstreamer GL plugin support 
when I find the best option ;-)
