/**
 * SECTION:element-encodebin
 *
 * EncodeBin provides a bin for encoding/muxing various streams according to
 * a specified #GstEncodingProfile.
 *
 * Based on the profile that was set (via the #GstEncodeBin:profile property),
 * EncodeBin will internally select and configure the required elements
 * (encoders, muxers, but also audio and video converters) so that you can
 * provide it raw or pre-encoded streams of data in input and have your
 * encoded/muxed/converted stream in output.
 *
 * <refsect2>
 * <title>Features</title>
 * <itemizedlist>
 * <listitem>
 * Automatic encoder and muxer selection based on elements available on the
 * system.
 * </listitem>
 * <listitem>
 * Conversion of raw audio/video streams (scaling, framerate conversion,
 * colorspace conversion, samplerate conversion) to conform to the profile
 * output format.
 * </listitem>
 * <listitem>
 * Variable number of streams. If the presence property for a stream encoding
 * profile is 0, you can request any number of sink pads for it via the
 * standard request pad gstreamer API or the #GstEncodeBin::request-pad action
 * signal.
 * </listitem>
 * <listitem>
 * Avoid reencoding (passthrough). If the input stream is already encoded and is
 * compatible with what the #GstEncodingProfile expects, then the stream won't
 * be re-encoded but just passed through downstream to the muxer or the output.
 * </listitem>
 * <listitem>
 * Mix pre-encoded and raw streams as input. In addition to the passthrough
 * feature above, you can feed both raw audio/video *AND* already-encoded data
 * to a pad. #GstEncodeBin will take care of passing through the compatible
 * segments and re-encoding the segments of media that need encoding.
 * </listitem>
 * <listitem>
 * Standard behaviour is to use a #GstEncodingContainerProfile to have both
 * encoding and muxing performed. But you can also provide a single stream
 * profile (like #GstEncodingAudioProfile) to only have the encoding done and
 * handle the encoded output yourself.
 * </listitem>
 * <listitem>
 * Audio imperfection corrections. Incoming audio streams can have non perfect
 * timestamps (jitter), like the streams coming from ASF files. #GstEncodeBin
 * will automatically fix those imperfections for you. See
 * #GstEncodeBin:audio-jitter-tolerance for more details.
 * </listitem>
 * <listitem>
 * Variable or Constant video framerate. If your #GstEncodingVideoProfile has
 * the variableframerate property deactivated (default), then the incoming
 * raw video stream will be retimestampped in order to produce a constant
 * framerate.
 * </listitem>
 * <listitem>
 * Cross-boundary re-encoding. When feeding compatible pre-encoded streams that
 * fall on segment boundaries, and for supported formats (right now only H263),
 * the GOP will be decoded/reencoded when needed to produce an encoded output
 * that fits exactly within the request GstSegment.
 * </listitem>
 * <listitem>
 * Missing plugin support. If a #GstElement is missing to encode/mux to the
 * request profile formats, a missing-plugin #GstMessage will be posted on the
 * #GstBus, allowing systems that support the missing-plugin system to offer the
 * user a way to install the missing element.
 * </listitem>
 * </itemizedlist>
 * </refsect2>

/* TODO/FIXME
 *
 * Handling mp3!xing!idv3 and theora!ogg tagsetting scenarios:
 *  Once we have chosen a muxer:
 *   When a new stream is requested:
 *    If muxer isn't 'Formatter' OR doesn't have a TagSetter interface:
 *      Find a Formatter for the given stream (preferably with TagSetter)
 *       Insert that before muxer
