Problem Installing GStreamer Plugins

FergatROn
Hi,

I'm running Fedora 8 and it came with gstreamer-0.10.15-3.  I wanted the
latest version because my DVD codex wasn't working using Totem.  So; I
uninstalled anything that had gstreamer in it and I downloaded
gstreamer-0.10.19, gst-plugins-base.0.10.19, and gst-python-0.10.11.

I didn't have a problem installing gstreamer, I extracted the source
to /usr/local/src and did ./configure, make, make install.  I extracted
the other two files there to, but when I do configure they're giving me
errors, thus not having a make file ready.

=====
gst-plugins-base.0.10.19 = checking for LIBOIL... configure: error:
liboil-0.3.8 or later is required
=====
I checked Fedora's package manager and it has a later version of liboil
installed.

====
checking for GST... configure: error: Package requirements
(gstreamer-0.10 >= 0.10.12) were not met.
====
I just installed a latest version of gstreamer!?

You need gst-plugins-ugly and perhaps gst-plugins-bad. You can find
them in rpm.livna.org.

It doesn't matter where you extract the source.

If you want to know if GStreamer was properly installed you need to do this:
pkg-config --modversion gstreamer-0.10

You need liboil-devel.

Again, you can check with:
pkg-config --modversion liboil-0.3

Apparently not correctly.

Best regards.

Thanks Felipe,

How do you know which flavor of plugins to use though.  I went to gstreamers web site and it didn't really go into details what each package was - just some legal mumbo jumbo.

Re: Problem Installing GStreamer Plugins

FergatROn
Hi,

What is supposed to happen after you install gstreamer and its plugins?  Should I get more plugin options in Totem, because I don't see anything different.  I've manually installed libdvdcss-1.2.9, but I still can't play the DVD.  Thanks for any help.

Re: Problem Installing GStreamer Plugins

OK; it seems that my manual install of gstreamer-0.10.19 and Fedora's repository 0.10.15 conflicted in some way.  I uninstalled 0.10.19 and ran "gst-inspect" and I went from 4 plugins to 170-something.  Although all these plugins are installed, when I go to Totem, I still don't see any extra plugins.  How do I sync Totem with GStreamer?  Thanks.

Re: Problem Installing GStreamer Plugins

Hi All,

It seems all I had to do was restart my computer or xserver - not certain why, but Totem plays my DVDs now.  Thanks for all your help.
