According to some people knowing more about GStreamer than I do it's pretty problematic to have 0.10 and 1.0 gstreamer mapped into one process as there are clashes in the implementation and you could expect crashes at runtime. On Linux distributions it's pretty easy to get different GStreamer in one process. For example libcanberra loads GStreamer itself usually and is also loaded into Firefox. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051559 Title: Build Firefox with GStreamer support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/1051559/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
