Well, bug bug.. gstreamer lacks in a lot of areas and one of them is error handling. It's not like it's totally unexpected behaviour. Anyway, the error is fairly descriptive, you are missing the gnomevfssource plugin . Make sure you have all plugins registered (run gst-register-0.6 as root) and the plugins actually exists ( check for the existance of  /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.6/libgstgnomevfssrc* ) . 

You need to have 'gnome' in USE for this plugin to build btw, so if you didn't have that then there is your problem.

Yep, that did it... working now. 

Thanks!
