* @short_description: Get a pipeline from a text pipeline description
*
* These function allow to create a pipeline based on the syntax used in the
* gst-launch-1.0 utility (see man-page for syntax documentation).
*
* Please note that these functions take several measures to create
* somewhat dynamic pipelines. Due to that such pipelines are not always
* reusable (set the state to NULL and back to PLAYING).
