Does gstreamer has mechanism to start multiple thread automatically for one element?

Does gstreamer has mechanism to start multiple thread automatically for one
element?

Say we have following scenario:

Videosrc ! videoprocess (thread safe) ! videosink

when we have multi core cpu, we should be able to start multiple thread of
videoprocess to
act as computing pipeline,
I know we could do

Videosrc ! queue ! videoprocess (thread safe) ! queue ! videosink

to start separate thread for videoprocess, but only 1 in my environment,
I would like to know if it's possible to start multiple thread of
videoprocess automatically managed by gstreamer?

If yes, what's the possible cause prevent such scheduling happen?


Thanks!

Individual element can have multiple threads for processing. But those
should be managed by plugin or the processing dependency library.

Go though videoconvert for multithread implimentation.
