+    We will show how to create an mpeg1 video player using dynamic pipelines.
+    As you have seen in the pad section, we can attach a signal to an element
+    when a pad is created. We will use this to create our MPEG1 player.

+        Some elements might not have their pads when they are created. This can, for 
+	example, happen with an MPEG2 system demuxer. The demuxer will create its 
+	pads at runtime when it detects the different elementary streams in the MPEG2
+	system stream.

+      <para> 
+        Running <application>gstreamer-inspect mpeg2parse</application> will show that
+	the element has only one pad: a sink pad called 'sink'. The other pads are 
+	"dormant" as you can see in the padtemplates from the 'Exists: Sometimes'
+	property. Depending on the type of MPEG2 file you play, the pads are created. We
+	will see that this is very important when you are going to create dynamic 
+	pipelines later on in this manual.
