  GStreamer | gst-ffmpeg | Ver: HEAD CVS
           Summary: no shared lib created and intalled (MinGW)
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-ffmpeg
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: vtorri at univ-evry.fr
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


No shared lib is created and installed with MinGW, hence the ffmpeg and
libpostproc plugins can't be registered.

A solution would be to add -no-undefined to libgstffmpeg_la_LDFLAGS in
ext/ffmpeg/Makefile.am and to libgstpostproc_la_LDFLAGS in
ext/libpostproc/Makefile.am

In gst-plugins-bad, for example, that flag is added everywhere (It is stored in
GST_ALL_LDFLAGS, then in GST_PLUGIN_LDFLAGS. GST_PLUGIN_LDFLAGS is then added
everywhere). I don't know if it is the correct solution for gst-ffmpeg, or if
it must be added only if mingw is detected. That's why i didn't proposed a
patch.
