Great progress recently, you can do most normal things and some not so common. The GstPlay class is wrapped, so now can actually write a simple movie player in just 8 lines of code:

import sys, gst, gst.play
play = gst.play.Play()
play.set_data_src(gst.Element('filesrc'))
play.set_audio_sink(gst.Element('osssink'))
play.set_video_sink(gst.Element('xvimagesink'))
play.set_location(sys.argv[1])
play.set_state(gst.STATE_PLAYING)
gst.main()

If you have gst-ffmpeg installed, this is enough to play mpegs, avis, qts etc.

Hope I'll be able to do a release within the next couple of days.

2.2.0 was released the other week, lots of good stuff done recently by Xordoquy, Gustavo, Christian and Lorenzo. Feels like we finally have a bunch of stable developers. Some work to merge in the new widgets from Gtk+ 2.4 has already started. Hopefully it won't take another 6 months be fore PyGTK 2.4.0 can be released.Note that the three links for setting the source and sinks will probably go away as soon as I wrap the GConf stuff.

15-18 degrees and sun strongly shining sun for the last couple of days. I'm certainly not complaining.
