[SOLVED] Handbrake preview not working

lopid · 06-12-2016, 08:17 AM

On current, using Alien's Handbrake package, the preview feature will not play. The preview window opens, and shows a video frame, but a little while after pressing the play button, a message pops up saying "Missing GStreamer plugin. Audio or Video may not play as expected. H.264 (High Profile) decoder.". Similar messages for "MPEG-4 AAC decoder" and "AC-3 (ATSC A/52 decoder)". The Activity window shows:

Code:

** (ghb:30747): WARNING **: Gstreamer Error: Your GStreamer installation is missing a plug-in.

** (ghb:30747): WARNING **: Gstreamer Error: Your GStreamer installation is missing a plug-in.

** (ghb:30747): WARNING **: Gstreamer Error: GStreamer encountered a general stream error.

I have installed all Alien's gst-plugins-* packages, along with the full complement of Slackware packages, and x264-20130524-x86_64-1alien. There are no missing libraries when I run ldd on the ghb binary.

I can rip DVDs just fine, it's just the preview playback that won't work.

Thanks, Toutatis! It was gst-libav from SBo that I needed.
