Public bug reported:
In multiple versions of lubuntu (since a couple of years ago, up to and
including lubuntu 13.04) I have noticed that gthumb does not play videos
in the default installation of lubuntu.
The problem is fixed by installing package gstreamer0.10-x
A little more detail: The videos that are not working are from a Canon
camera. I am not sure if other videos work or not in gthumb.
gstreamer0.10-x is described as "GStreamer plugins for X11 and Pango". So
the lack of video in gthumb in my system is either:
a) due to my hardware (and thus the additional plugin solves my problem)
b) hardware independent (and then all lubuntu installations should have this
problem).
I have changed hardware recently (from an Nvidia to an ATI card) and the
problem remains: a newly installed lubuntu with gthumb results in
gthumb not playing those Canon camera videos.
So it seems that gstreamer0.10-x be required by gthumb... (or it should
be required by a default gstreamer installation; I do not know exactly
how dependencies are planned)
