Sorry, please replace "gst-plugins-xxx package" in my previous sentence.

I meant: is GStreamer able to _extract_ tags (album, artists...) from
video and audio files without any plugins, or is needed a specific
plugin to do it?

For example, the "taglib" plugins is used to write tags, and is
available only if you install gst-plugins-good package. Honestly I can't
find any tag extractor-only plugin using gst-inspect.

Same for the "typefindfunctions" plugin, used to define the type of a
stream. It's installed by gst-plugins-good package. Are we using it,
maybe indirectly when invoking playbin? If so, we should check its
availability at configure time.

I'm not sure, but maybe we have to depend at least on gst-plugins-base
too.

Of course. jhbuild is a tool to build directly from cvs, so it can grab
the latest stuff available.

You can also set it to use a tgz package, but in current modulesets this
option is used only for external dependencies and/or outside gnome cvs
server.
