By "fiddle with ranks at runtime", do you mean something like your original
patch ?
If so, it's certainly possible, the issue here was one of which particular
ranks were used, leading to autoplugging choosing a different set of plugins
(which I found out was the issue by pure chance, actually).

Setting plugins to PRIMARY+1 seems dodgy (though it is done on a few plugins, I
believe), as the assumption when a plugin sets itself to PRIMARY is that it
will be used - so PRIMARY will be used on plugins which the programmer expects
to be used. Those assumptions become void when anohter plugin may become higher
priority, and, well, that's bound to come back and bite you at some point.

Is a patch to -ugly (or simply leaving out libgstmpeg2dec.*) an issue instead
of a patch to -ffmpeg ?
