Yes

Most of the times that should work. But we have faced some problems if we call 
clutter_media functions from within another thread, it wasn't working but 
wouldn't segfault though.

I tried that. But I think its a threading problem on my side because I
tried the same code in another thread and it worked. So if I call
clutter_texture_set_from_file in the other thread instead of
clutter_texture_new_from_file in that thread then it doesn't segfault.

Thanks for the reply Yaser

Just a question on threading in clutter: I think I read something in
the mailing list about only having clutter calls in the main thread or
something to that effect, and I saw an example where they used
clutter_threads_enter and clutter_threads_exit. If I need to make
clutter calls in a different thread do I just use those calls at the
beginning and the end of each threaded function?
