Description Stephan 2017-05-03 08:33:42 UTC
Hello,

maybe I'm too stupid for this stuff.
But I want to set-up a gstream for a USB camera on Ubuntu 16.04.
The gst-launch reports needs the bayer2rgb pipeline.
Which is included in the gstream0.10-plugins-bad. If I try to install it with the package tool (sudo apt install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad), it returns 
"Package gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  gstreamer0.10-plugins-good:i386 gstreamer0.10-plugins-base:i386
  gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-base"

I installed this packages but the bayer2rgb element can't be found.

So now my question what can I do to set up the gstream?

Thanks for helping.

Stephan

Hi Stephan,

The gstreamer-devel mailing list or #gstreamer IRC channel on Freenode are better places for support question.

Bugzilla is for bugs and feature requests.

We do not make these packages, so you should probably get in touch with your distro and ask them about it.

GStreamer 0.10 is ancient and completely unmaintained.

You may want to install/use GStreamer 1.0 instead.
