[gst-devel] Error playing video streams

[Görkem Çetin]

Hi

Just solved this issue by apt-get install --reinstall --purge
gstreamer0.10.* command. Ubuntu 7.04 works fine with my current dpkg
dependencies, however gstreamer somehow needs another file/group of files to
work correctly other then this list:

(gstreamer-tools, gstreamer0.10-plugins-good, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly,
gstreamer0.10-alsa, gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg, gstreamer0.10-tools,
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0,
libgstreamer0.10-0) + ffmpeg

Best
