[gst-devel] GStreamer on Windows

[Vláďa <vl...@at...>]

Hello,

I'm trying to use GStreamer and it's Python bindings on Windows. I 
installed GStreamer with all plugins and the Python bindings. After 
trying to run the 2.3 CLI example from 
http://pygstdocs.berlios.de/pygst-tutorial/playbin.html I get following 
error: "OIL: ERROR liboilcpu.c 282: 
oil_cpu_i386_kernel_restrict_flags(): Operating system is not known to 
support SSE. Assuming it does, which might cause problems". Then the 
program freezes. Do you have any idea what might be wrong or what should 
I try?

I tried if GStreamer works according to PyGST documentation I tried to 
run "gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=file:///c:\file.mp3" but I get 2 
errors. "ERROR: Piepeline doesn't want to pause.", then "ERROR: from 
element /playbin0: A FILE protocol source plugin is required to play 
this stream, but not installed." The full error message can be seen 
here: http://img355.imageshack.us/img355/9163/gstreameruz0.png
<file:///path/to/file.mkv>
Is my syntax correct? Or is the problem somewhere else?

Also my application should be portable (it is possible with Python on 
Windows) but I have no idea where I should place GStreamer libraries. It 
seems to me that placing the main libraries in program's root folder 
works, but plugins are not found there. Any advice on this?

I would really appreciate any documentation on using GStreamer on 
Windows. Thank you.

Regards,
Vlada
