Your GStreamer installation is missing a plugin/The video cannot be played due to a problem allocating resources
The error message in the title is a long standing issue I have been having with LLS Video Player when trying to stream videos (local files were working if I remember correctly). I always thought it was limited to specific dependencies that I failed to install for this player, but it never prevented me from watching videos with other players, or from the browser. Even Webcat builtin player could play Youtube videos, although I thought it was just a wrapper for LLS Video Player. Anyway, so I could still play videos, and therefore I postponed fixing the issue for years.
However, when I decided to do that, I broke things even more and now I am having this error in every video, regardless of the application being used, and even in streams in browser applications. I don't remember exactly what I did, but neither gstreamer1.0 nor the updated version by Llselectronics in Openrepos seem to solve the issue. I have tried pkcon install --reinstall gstreamer1.0, no luck.
Here is the list of the gstreamer packages currently installed on my Jolla C:
