Unfortunately even if this problem(with blobs) will be fixed,
Record won't start in 0.86 properly. I'm going to rewrite Record from
scratch to have more robust UI and gst scheme but I'm stuck to
gst-plugin's(I want to use) development process. I'm tracking this issue
and will bump new Record when upstream issues will be solved.
