From: Stupergenius Date: 2006-04-03T11:03:47+09:00 Subject: GStreamer Woes Hi all, newbie to Ruby and this group. My question deals with the Ruby GStreamer bindings. Basically, I copied and pasted the GStreamer example from the Ruby GNOME2 site and replaced the mad plugin, which I don't have on my linux box appearently, with the spider plugin, and I get nothing when I run the script. Which is to say I get no error and I get no sound, just a clean exit as soon as some messages are printed out. All the objects are being correctly allocated and all, no nils here, it just doesn't work. Am I missing something here? I installed the GNOME2-all package and all the libglade and gtk stuff work perfect except GStreamer is hating me. Additionally, the Gst::Thread(which I would rather use) implementation of the same script functions the same as the Gst::Pipeline implementation, nothing. I'm at a loss here, I've validated everything, valid mp3, valid allocation, valid libraries, etc. If you're wondering what I'm doing with GStreamer, I am writing a simple mp3 player for a class project, so I know my GNOME2 install isn't bodged since libglade functions. Help! Thanks :) This output confirms that all the objects are allocated when I put them, they just don't work. # # # #
