I don't see anything here that indicates a bug in GStreamer.

It looks to me like you should take this up with your distro or the maintainer
of any extra repositories you may be using for multimedia packages.

FWIW, gst-plugins-bad does not provide a h264 *decoder*, only an *encoder*. You
need gstreamer-plugins-ffmpeg or whatever it's called for your distro.

To check from the command line whether you have the required decoder installed,
run:

 $ gst-inspect-0.10 ffdec_h264


Closing as NOTGNOME. Feel free to re-open if you have any information that
indicates that this is not a distro packaging/codec-install-app bug.
