            Bug ID: 772431
           Summary: Doc is wrong about GST_PLUGIN_PATH being colon
                    separated - it's semicolon on Windows.
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: unspecified
                OS: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
          Assignee: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

     GNOME version: ---

On
https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/gst-running.html
it's claimed that GST_PLUGIN_PATH etc is a list separated by a colon. 

However, on windows it's actually a semicolon separated list as is evidenced by
the code at
https://github.com/GStreamer/gstreamer/blob/master/gst/gstregistry.c#L1621
which relies on G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR_S which is a semicolon on Windows.
