Introduction to Gstreamer Bad Plug-ins

The GStreamer Bad Plug-ins package contains a set a set of plug-ins that aren't up to par compared to the rest. They might be close to being good quality, but they're missing something - be it a good code review, some documentation, a set of tests, a real live maintainer, or some actual wide use.

This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-7.0 platform.

Installation of GStreamer Bad Plug-ins

./configure --prefix=/usr --with-gtk=3.0 --disable-examples &&
make

To test the results, issue: make check. Note that tests for some of the items may fail.

Now, as the root user:

make install
