Hi, It seems worth noting that this same error will come up in Parole on a 'vanilla' install of Xubuntu 14.04 LTS (fresh from GA and updated on 2014.04.29).
There doesn't actually seem to be a package available called 'gst- plugins-base' as recommended in the previous comment. Packages named gstreamer1.0-plugins-base and gstreamer0.10-plugins-base do exist. (Note I am not using 'multiverse'; perhaps the referenced package is in there). I eventually tracked down the problem to the package 'gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio' not being installed. After installing that, the error is no longer displayed when trying to play an audio file (mp3 via fluendo) in Parole. Definitely not a Parole bug, but I figure someone else may end up here looking for a solution so it was worth addding a comment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1278089 Title: Parole reports "Gstreamer backend error, could not initialise supporting library" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/parole/+bug/1278089/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
