Bug Description
Binary package hint: gstreamer0.
When trying to use gstreamer to play DVB it fails complaining about missing uri handler for dvb:
% gst-launch-0.10 playbin "uri=dvb://MTV3"
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
ERROR: Pipeline doesn't want to pause.
ERROR: from element /playbin0: A DVB protocol source plugin is required to play this stream, but not installed.
Additional debug info:
gstplaybasebin.
No URI handler for dvb
Setting pipeline to NULL ...
FREEING pipeline ...
However, the dvb plugin is there and at least dvbbasebin element claims to have the handler:
% gst-inspect dvbbasebin
...
URI handling capabilities:
Element can act as source.
Supported URI protocols:
dvb
...
Relevant(?) versions:
Distribution: Intrepid
gstreamer0.

gstreamer-tools 0.10.20-3

The bug is still here in Jaunty (and Karmic ATM).
I think it needs to be fixed before dropping totem-xine (the only way I have to watch dvb streams now).
