[Bug 683435] New: Debian Packaging of gst-plugins-libav fails to handle MPEG

[GStreamer (bugzilla.gnome.org)]

  GStreamer | gst-plugins | 0.11.x

           Summary: Debian Packaging of gst-plugins-libav fails to handle
                    MPEG
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.11.x
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: swestrup at gmail.com
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---


This command, which attempts to play BigBuckBunny via an MPEG decoder, always
fails:

gstlaunch filesrc location=~/Videos/BigBuckBunny1080p.avi ! decodebin !
xvimagesink

With this error:

Pipeline is PREROLLING ...
ERROR: from element
/GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstDecodeBin:decodebin0/avdec_mpeg4_crystalhd:avdec_mpeg4_crystalhd0:
Internal GStreamer error: negotiation problem.  Please file a bug at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer.
Additional debug info:
gstvideodecoder.c(1885): gst_video_decoder_chain ():
/GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstDecodeBin:decodebin0/avdec_mpeg4_crystalhd:avdec_mpeg4_crystalhd0:
encoder not initialized

This appears to be caused by an attempt to use the crystalhd driver by
preference, even in the absence of the required hardware. This bug is present
in both the 0.10.x and 0.11.x versions of the libav plugins.  The only
workaround I've found has been to manually recompile the plugins with crystalhd
explicitly disabled.
