Re: [libreoffice-users] gstreamer-1.0 vs gstreamer-0.10

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the reply.  In gstreamer-1.0 gst-ffmpeg has been replaced by
gst-libav (which is installed).   My video plays on all machines using
mplayer and things like gst-play-1.0 or totem.  When it works (on
gstreamer-0.10 boxes), the presentation is what these external tools
show.

Finally I ran LO under strace on a system that only has 1.0 installed.
I see various gst-0.10 files that came with LO being opened, e.g.,


"/opt/libreoffice4.1/program/../program/libavmediagst_0_10.so"

and failures for -0.10 related libs in the system directories.  Nowhere
do I see any attempt (failed or not) to open a 1.0 lib/module.

David
