[gst-devel] Freshly baked Windows binaries of HEAD available

[Andres Colubri]

I applied those patches on the dshowwrapper plugin in OPBuild in order 
to generate the installer I posted the other day.

But there seems to be something wrong. If you try dshowvideosrc from 
gst-launch (on windows vista) you get this error:

 > gst-launch-0.10.exe dshowvideosrc ! ffmpegcolorspace ! directdrawsink
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
ERROR: Pipeline doesn't want to pause.
Setting pipeline to NULL ...
FREEING pipeline ...
