gstream codecs

There is a limit to how much we can support due to patents. If you have a non working video, please share it with me and I will tell you whether the codec is not supported or whether it's a bug and try to fix it if it's a bug.

@MSameer what I don't get is the lack of VP8 & VP9 support. Basically those codecs are shipped by Jolla already as the SailfishOS Browser supports them. But gstreamer is lacking support for it. The patent issue should be solved on that codecs as the whole world is shipping support for it already.

@MSameer finally someone pays attention to my grievances, I am grateful already. I use LLs Vplayer, and it plays avi, mkv, mp4 and 3gp videos well, but my experience with any flv videos as a whole won't play as it returns internal stream error message, @alex says flv videos play well on his device, so am confused. As for wmv videos it returns the error message your Gstreamer installation is missing a plugin. I have all codecs related from openrepos.net and used the pkcon update to update minor files on my device, opus included, had to get a newer version from openrepos, yet the problem persists, it would mean the world to me if you could help fix this issue as I need to watch those CBT Nuggets videos on my device and they are the wmv formats

would gladly share an flv and wmv video with you to any link you want

@DameCENO I am always there and listen. I apologize if I missed any previous question related to video playback. I am trying to do my best but I am also governed by our legal guys.

Try a pkcon refresh

Same problem here, did pkcon refresh, still same message.

Solved via zypper. Pkcon refresh didn't help.

@objectifnul

Please let us know how you solved it using zypper.

GStreamer 0.10 is not used for anything. If the codec collection is only for 0.10 then better not to install it ;-)
