[gst-devel] location of plugins on a windows system...

[Philip Pellouchoud]

Is there any way to set the plugin path programmatically (other than setting the environment variable programmatically :-).

You should check that GST_PLUGIN_PATH is well defined in your
environment variables.
 

If yes, you should check that it’s accessible from your app by
getting it with getenv(“GST_PLUGIN_PATH”).

Hi all,



I am new to gstreamer and I am running into something simple that I can’t seem
to fix.



I’ve got a very tiny app:



int main(int argc, char* argv[])

{

    gst_init(NULL, NULL);



    guint nMajor(0), nMinor(0), nMicro(0), nNano(0);

    gst_version(&nMajor, &nMinor, &nMicro,
&nNano);



    GMainLoop* loop(NULL);

    loop = g_main_loop_new(NULL, FALSE);



    GstElement* play =
gst_element_factory_make("playbin", "play");

    g_object_set (G_OBJECT (play), "uri",
"C:\\test.mp3", NULL);



    ....



    return 0;

}



play is NULL.



That’s because it can’t find the libgstplaybin.dll in C:\Program Files\Common
Files\GStreamer\0.10\lib\gstreamer-0.10.



If I CD to C:\Program Files\Common Files\GStreamer\0.10\bin and run

gst-launch-0.10.exe playbin uri=file://C:\\test.mp3



This works great.  Plays the file and everything.  I think what’s
happening is that within my app (which is in a totally different directory), it
can’t find that DLL, and so it can’t create the “playbin” element.  I
tried copying those DLLs into my application/debug directory but it didn’t
help, that kept returning NULL.



Any help would be great, thanks!
