Compile QtGstreamer on windows: 'libxml/parser.h', : No such file or directory

[Mailing List SVR]

George,

I spoken too quick, I tryed the player sample, it start but when I try 
to load a file I get this error:

0:00:07.661545000  1884   003E4BE0 ERROR                basesrc 
gstbasesrc.c:302
2:gst_base_src_activate_pull:<source> Failed to start in pull mode
"Could not open resource for reading."

using:

gst-launch playbin2 -v uri=file:///C:\\a.avi

the file is played just fine,

what's wrong?

Nicola
