Hi Guys,

I have been developing a cross-platform multi-media medical application in wxPerl. All the original development was done in Windows and I have just ported to Kubuntu 9.10. One of the main components is wxMediaCtrl which uses MS Media Player backend on Windows or GStreamer on Linux.

I've definitely got GStreamer installed because other applications run using it. But I've not got wxMediaCtrl running yet. I'm getting error "Got an invalid playbin (error 0:Success)". So what am I missing here?

I have:

- Kubuntu 9:10

- wxPerl 0.91-1

- GStreamer (libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 - 0.10.25-2ubunbtu1 (amd64), libgstreamer0.10-0 - 0.10.25 (amd64), bluez-gstreamer - 4.51-0ubantu2 (amd64)).

However, there are 54 other GStreamer packages/modules that aren't installed, and maybe I'm just missing one or two.

If I add all the remaining modules, I can even write pieces of code in Perl which call GStreamer directly but in this case, wxMediaCtrl bombs out with no error message at all.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks and regards

Steve
