Hi, 

I'm trying to play a MIDI file using Gstreamer, on a x64 Ubuntu 14.04. Both
Rhythmbox and Parole gave errors about not being able to play it, even though I
have all the bad/ugly packages installed, so I tried using gst-launch.

When running:

    gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location="test.mid" ! decodebin ! autoaudiosink

I get a "Missing element: audio/x-midi-event decoder". However, if I run:

    gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location="test.mid" ! wildmidi ! autoaudiosink

It works perfectly.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature, but I though you guys should know. 

Is there any way to create a mapping from "audio/x-midi-event" to the wildmidi
plugin by hand?

Thanks,
Tom
