  GStreamer | gst-ffmpeg | Ver: 0.10.3
           Summary: Can't decode Windows Media v9 audio (WMA3)
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.3
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-ffmpeg
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net

     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Please describe the problem:
GStreamer doesn't seem to be able to decode Windows Media v9 audio.  It gives
the error:
** Message: don't know how to handle audio/x-wma, wmaversion=(int)3,
bitrate=(int)384000, depth=(int)24, rate=(int)96000, channels=(int)2,
block_align=(int)8192, codec_data=(buffer)1800030000000000000000000000e0000000

I can play the same file (both audio & video) with mplayer, so I think that
means ffmpeg is able to decode it, and gstreamer should be able to decode it.

Also, it looks like ffdec_wmav2 sets it's sink pad template's caps such that it
only accepts wmaversion: 2, even though the description says it handles Windows
Media Audio v8/9 (Windows Media 9 audio has wmaversion: 3).

Steps to reproduce:
1. Download http://owenfam.org/test.wmv  (note that this is the first 1MB of
the file)
2. gst-launch playbin uri=file://test.wmv 
3. 


Actual results:
playbin plays the video correctly, but gives the following error for audio:**
Message: don't know how to handle audio/x-wma, wmaversion=(int)3,
bitrate=(int)384000, depth=(int)24, rate=(int)96000, channels=(int)2,
block_align=(int)8192, codec_data=(buffer)1800030000000000000000000000e0000000


Expected results:
should play both audio and video

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
I'm using Ubuntu Hardy, 32-bit on an x86 platform.
