[gst-devel] RE: Mad Plugin installation problem

Because
- (assumption) you have GStreamer and most plugins installed through
packages for your distro - which probably compiled everything with a
prefix /usr
- (from your last mail) you configured gst-plugins so that it installs
in /usr/local

What distro are you using and why are there no packages provided by
someone that have mad ?

> How do I find out where gst-register thinks they are located at?

gst-inspect mad will show you what actual path is being used.
