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

Hi Vladimir,

Thanks for the reply.   I have the same versions for the
gst-plugins/libav as you.  The only difference may be that I built mine
here, while you may have gotten them from your distribution.  (My
distribution is slackware which doesn't officially support gnome any
more). 

As I think I wrote, strace clearly shows that my LO is looking ONLY for
gst-0.10 modules--no hint of any 1.0.  I downloaded LO from the main LO
site and I suspect that it was built with 0.01 support only.   My bet is
that your distribution's LO, assuming that you're using it, supports
1.0.

I've played with building my own LO, and there are configure flags that
allow on to choose the gstreamer versions.  Unfortunately, the build
dies in nss-related code. If you're interested, have a look at:

           https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75731


Again, thanks for the reply.

David
