[opensuse-factory] GStreamer 1.0 status
Hi, since Firefox finally has official support for GStreamer 1.0 with version 30 (currently Aurora) I've been looking into switching to that. (my current system is 13.1 fwiw) While MP3 support works fine with Fluendo for GStreamer 1.0 I haven't found a way to enable H.264 at all. First it's not clear which plugins are needed at all. According to the developer it should be " gstreamer gstreamer-plugins-base gstreamer-plugins-good gstreamer-plugins-bad and either gstreamer-plugins-libav or some 3rd party h264 decoder (I believe Fluendo has one, but there are also others). " I've installed all of them but still does not work. So it might be that I need *-bad-orig-addon in addition but packman does not have the right versions and I'm not going to replace my full gstreamer infrastructure for that. Is the status better with Factory or is there still no usable way (for endusers w/o having to destroy their basesystem) to get H.264 support through GStreamer 1.0? Because then it makes no sense to switch Firefox to it yet.

Hi Wolfgang, i'm not sure which tests should be executed, but at least i've succesfully played H.264 videos with Firefox from mozilla:alpha. Running Factory, and have installed: gstreamer-libnice gstreamer-plugins-good-extra gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly-orig-addon gstreamer-plugins-libav gstreamer-plugins-bad-orig-addon gstreamer-plugins-base gstreamer gstreamer-plugins-good gstreamer-plugins-ugly gstreamer-utils libgstreamer-1_0-0 Having Firefox with gstreamer 1.0 API would be one of last pieces of puzzle to get KDE Live CD fully 1.0 ready for 13.2 =) Cheers, Hrvoje
Thanks, Wolfgang

sounds good.
gstreamer-libnice gstreamer-plugins-good-extra gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly-orig-addon gstreamer-plugins-libav gstreamer-plugins-bad-orig-addon gstreamer-plugins-base gstreamer gstreamer-plugins-good gstreamer-plugins-ugly gstreamer-utils libgstreamer-1_0-0
In the end the minimal requirement would be interesting for me to put it as Recommends into the package.

That should be no issue. The GStreamer 1.0 support is official with Firefox 30 which will be released in around 13 weeks. This should fit into the 13.2 release cycle (I think).
