Where can I get helixbin plugin

[yinxb]

Hi

  I am a new comer to gstreamer.
  Recently,I used the tracker to check the rm/rmvb videofiles in Meego.
Because the tracker uses the tracker-extract-helix to get the rm/rmvb
metainfo,code pieces are as followed:
------
......
extractor->playbin = gst_element_factory_make ("helixbin", "playbin");
......
------
But there is not helixplugin in Meego,
So,Where can I get the gstreamer helixbin plugins?

ps
rm/rmvb files can be played from the commandline using playbin2.

  That last line is the answer to your problem.

  Or more extensively:
  * helixbin was a hack from several years back for a very specific
device.
  * If works with playbin2 ... so just make real files 'analyzed' by the
standard tracker extraction tool
  * Kill/remove/anihilate the helix extractor
  * And if you want better performances, you should consider moving the
extractor code over to GstDiscoverer[1] which will do what you want and
more.

Hi Edward Hervey

  Thanks for your reply.
  I will try it using GstDiscoverer.
