Bugzilla Bug 80734

compiles and runs (both with encoding and decoding) fine on my amd64

It compiled and installed fine, but errored out at runtime:

/usr/bin/gst-launch-0.8 filesrc location=bobyoung.ogg ! spider ! alsasink

you are testing it wrong!

theora is a video codec not an audio codec
spider is now deprecated as it does not autoplug well

To test a video file that has video and audio, do:

gst-launch-0.8 filesrc location=blah.ogg ! decodebin {d. ! queue ! xvimagesink} {d. ! queue ! alsasink}

Or to test theora, which is the point of this bug report you do:

gst-launch-0.8 videotestsrc ! theoraenc ! oggmux ! filesink location=blah.ogg

ctrl-c after say 10 secs then do:

gst-launch-0.8 filesrc location=blah.ogg ! oggdemux ! theoradec ! ffmpegcolorspace ! xvimagesink

I can confirm that the theora gst plugin works fine, both encoding and decoding and have been doing encoding especially for the last 72 hours on my amd64 box.

Works for me:
