Paolo, Is the Alarm also possibly working as a means to ensuring a script does not 'run-away' and get stuck? I was running my almost done script yesterday (this time using vanilla gst 3.2) and it hit the alarm after running for several minutes doing text analysis with pipes,etc.. Unfortunately the code is very tied to our environment so it can't be run elsewhere but I'd be happy to debug the issue if you could point me in the right direction..
