I am trying to create a simple program using Gstreamer to take the input from a microphone and save it to a mp3 file. I keep getting

Internal data flow error

and can´t seem to find the problem(I am new to Gstreamer). Here is a link to my code:

Your code is not handling return codes from the functions. As a result your in the dark when it fails. Anyway in your code you forgot to link the elements. Right after line 70, also do gst_element_link_many(....);
