           Summary: Missing element: video/x-surface decoder / Your
                    GStreamer installation is missing a plug-in
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.36
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: sergei.vorobyov at facilitylabs.com
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---


A strange behavior of the same application

1. working fine on Ubuntu 12.04 (x64)
2. crashing on Ubuntu 13.10, both x64 and arm (Odroid-XU) with the same 
   symptoms.

All three in 1 & 2 have full GStreamer 0.10.36 (same version!) installed using

apt-get install gstreamer*

Even the plain playbin2 crashes with:

Missing element: video/x-surface decoder / Your GStreamer installation is  
missing a plug-in, see below.

(My application crashes with the same error while exploring *any* .avi file)

Any suggestions please?
