gst_type_find_factory_get_list() incomplete

[Gary Metalle]

Hi.


I am using gstreamer1.0 on Linux (Ubuntu).


I'm trying to write some code to find out what video codecs I have available in my softphone application. I thought I'd call gst_type_find_factory_get_list() and iterate though the entries and filter out those that don't start with video.


The list I get back however seems incomplete (as seen below). For example I definitely have the vpx plugin and hence I'd expect to see entries for video/x-vp8 and video/x-vp9.


Or is there a better way to do this such as somehow iterating through all plugins and looking at the caps?
