Description sunsetsergal 2022-05-13 15:19:46 UTC
Hi. Currently net-im/cawbird is able to compile and run and almost entirely work, but it will fail to play videos. The package media-plugins/gst-plugins-gtk is required to attempt to load any video and media-plugins/gst-plugins-hls is required to actually play them. Installing them makes video playback work.

I checked and it doesn't appear to be possible to pull these in via USEflags on the main gst-plugins-good/bad/ugly/meta packages, so maybe Cawbird should RDEPEND them directly? Or maybe gst-plugins-meta needs more USEflags?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install net-im/cawbird on a system that doesn't have a lot of other GStreamer packages installed.
2. Log in if necessary. Find a video post. Click the video.
Actual Results:  
If gst-plugins-gtk is missing, a window appears with the following misleading error message (I have gst-plugins-bad installed and working):

Could not create gtksink. Need gst-plugins-bad >= 1.6

If gst-plugins-hls is missing, a window appears with the following actually useful error message:

../gst-plugins-base-1.20.1/gst/playback/gsturidecodebin.c(1027): no_more_pads_full (): /GstPlayBin:video/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin0:
no suitable plugins found:
../gst-plugins-base-1.20.1/gst/playback/gstdecodebin2.c(4701): gst_decode_bin_expose (): /GstPlayBin:video/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin0/GstDecodeBin:decodebin0:
no suitable plugins found:
Missing decoder: application/x-hls (application/x-hls)

Expected Results:  
A borderless pop-up window appears that plays back the video.
