Description Brian Pepple 2008-01-12 10:45:03 UTC

It would be good to automagically install the necessary gstreamer plugins when
we can't decode a file, using GStreamer's missing plugins support much like totem & rhythmbox does.

For reference, here's how totem does it:

This should be fixed in all packages now.
At least Youtube properly informs me about missing plugins now.
