           Summary: H.264 Decoder not detected despite installed

Please describe the problem:
When trying for example to play a YouTube video in Totem or Swfdec(both uses
GStreamer), it says that it requires a H.264 Decoder to play, and when you
click the Search-button, it suggests gstreamer-plugins-bad, but by some reason
can't install it directly, as it apparently conflicts with
gstreamer-plugins-good...
I tried to install it by command-line(sudo yum -y install
gstreamer-plugins-bad), but it still isn't detected!
I know it can detect parts of the package, as it previously asked me for an AAC
decoder which apparently was in the bad-package too, and i can hear sound but
there's only visual effects instead of video, and it keeps telling me i need
the H.264 Decoder. If you try installing it graphically again, it says it's
already installed

I'm using the Swedish version of Fedora 11 Leonidas, with the latest version of
both Totem and GStreamer

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install "totem", "totem-youtube" and all "gstreamer-plugin-*" packages
2. Run Totem, and in the drop-down menu where it says "playlist", choose
youtube
3. I searched for the video "Final Fantasy Tactics A2 Final Boss OHKO", you'll
only get one match
4. Try playing it

Actual results:
At least on my computer, it asks me to install gstreamer-plugins-bad, but
fails, saying that it conflicts with g.p. good, and if i install it by
command-line, it says it's already installed...

Expected results:
It plays the video ofc.

Does this happen every time?
Yes
