I have USE="gstreamer", and I think that's caused a lot of plugins to
be built.  I never paid attention to it, so I don't have any firm
advice about plugins.

If you run into something a SeaMonkey built with gstreamer-1.x support
won't play, I guess I'd first try merging
media-libs/gst-plugins-base:1.0 .  If still no joy, I'd spend some time
looking at the list of media-libs/gst-plugins-* -- their names mostly
indicate what they do.
