Some vendors put the file into a different place.

I'm using Ice Cream Sandwitch (4.0.3). I have not yet updated to new
available versions because next available suggested update disables
Wifi-Direct that could be useful to do ad-hoc networks. Where could it be?

Ok I'll try it.

I was using gstreamer-sdk-android-arm-release-2013.6 (
http://docs.gstreamer.com/display/GstSDK/Installing+for+Android+development);
now I have switched to that of your link that seems more updated; I have
updated the code and now I'm porting the pipelines.Package
gstreamer-sdk-android-arm-release-2013.6 seems to be 0.10 version.

Ok I'll try it.
