Hi,
Trying to play an h264 video, I found this comment in gst-plugins-bad:
;; XXX: The following dependencies are missing:
;; vo-amrwbenc, vo-aacenc, bs2b, chromaprint, directfb, daala, libdts,
;; faac, flite, libgsm, libde265, libmms, libmimic, mjpegtools,
;; mpeg2enc, libofa, opencv, openh264, openni2, libtimemmgr, wildmidi,
and packaged openh264 and its dependency nasm. Find attached.
Later I found that h264 can be played by installing gst-libav.
As an aside, I wonder why gst-plugins-bad is made to depend on qt and
Wayland.
Greetings,
Jan
