GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 150363
[pngdec] doesn't handle grayscale or paletted

They would probably need creating additional raw video types, e.g. video/x-raw-palette,format=rgb,palette=<12094,1092,1290,...> for example
Don't you mean "gstreamer doesn't define a palettized video type"? Personally, I don't see much need for it. Or does this bug mean that pngdec doesn't correctly convert palettized or grayscale PNG images to video/x-raw-rgb?
There's a related bug somewhere that AVI with "DIB " content in it (8-bit palettized RGB) doesn't playback. One of the formats that gst-ffmpeg wraps is a palletized RGB-like video compression format, we can copy palette handling from there.
Updating for newer versions.
Fixed in CVS HEAD
