Also there should be some caution when upgrading gstreamer to the latest version. Starting with gstreamer 0.10.30, gstreamer is making the transition from liboil to liborc. Here's a snippet from the GStreamer Base Plug-ins 0.10.30 release notes: Use Orc (Optimized Inner Loops Runtime Compiler) for SIMD and other optimisations, and remove liboil dependency. The main goal for this release was to make the transition from liboil to liborc. Performance improvements should not be expected and will be the focus of future versions. liborc is an optional dependency for the time being, to make it possible to test and develop the very latest GStreamer versions on systems that don't have orc yet. However, without orc slow unoptimised backup code will be used for many performance critical code paths. Distributors are urged to package and ship the latest version of liborc and compile GStreamer modules with --enable-orc. Please do not distribute GStreamer packages that are not orc enabled. So I suggest that gstreamer and the gst plug-ins are only updated to 0.10.29 for the time being. Then liborc should be added to buildroot and as soon as that package has landed, an update to 0.10.30 can be attempted.
