@Valerio,
I don't really think this is a gstreamer bug since both skype and xawtv users reported the very same issue (see duplicates of this bug).
I don't know why it still works with vlc (someone said it works with camorama too but I think it's using v4l1 api) but it's likely that this issue comes from a kernel regression with pwc driver.. I took a quick look at changelogs but I didn't find anything useful.

Did any of you reported the issue to bugzilla.kernel.org or to the v4l-dvb list?
