I guess more people will find this here...

To make it work you must edit the file ~/.arista/presets/android.json
changing, in line 243:

bitrate=131072 profile=LC

for

bitrate=131072 ! audio/mpeg, base-profile=lc

This will fix the Android DroidX preset. Do the same for the Galaxy
Tab and any other preset needed.

It doesn't really make a lot of sense to release an official update
fixing the scripts since
a) The presets from http://www.transcoder.org/presets/ would still fail anyway
b) It would only fix new installations, not updates, since arista
copies the presets to the user home directory and doesn't update them
with the new software updates.

GREAT. This fixed the problem and now I am able to transcode movies. It 
comes at the best time as tomorrow we are going to The Netherlands for 3 
days trip and my wife wanted to put some movies on the tablet. Thank you 
guys so much. I will write about it to help other users as well.


Thanks again.

 I am trying to install and use Arista Transcoder in openSUSE, but some
 update recently broke it. I have filed bug report with Arista and openSUSE
 and it seems the problem is with pacman not installing plugins/codecs.

 How to reproduce
 1. Install Arista in openSUSE 12.1
 2. Try to run and it throws error

 muktware@linux-fdhk:~ arista-gtk
 ** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GstObject)
 arista.presets [433]: INFO Attempting to install elements: x264enc
 ** Message: PackageKit: xid = 0

 ** Message: PackageKit: Did not install codec: Message did not receive a
 reply (timeout by message bus)
 arista.presets [442]: ERROR Unable to install required elements!

 The error it throws is
 Cannot add conversion to queue because of missing elements!

 I then tried to install plugins from openSUSE's repo
 http://opensuse-community.org/Restricted_formats/12.1

 and then
 http://www.muktware.com/articles/3276/how-install-arista-transcoder-opensuse

 Now when I try to transcode a movie in Droidx (format for Android tablets)
 it throws error:

 Conversion of The_Iron_Lady.mp4 to Generic Android Droid X failed! Reason:
 Unable to construct pipeline! no property profile in element faac0

 Can you please help?

I already reopened the openSUSE (next time, please, give a link)
explaining why the problem is not in Packman.

And I don't think the faac0 is Packman fault neither. I explained it
in the arista bug report.

Thanks. Will keep in mind.
