Description Alan Mock 2009-10-14 18:59:42 UTC 
Trying to use the FFMPEG plugin causes the following two lines to be printed before the program crashes.  This is using the latest git version.

0:00:00.117149000 17300   0x61cb50 ERROR           GST_REGISTRY gstregistrychunks.c:516:gst_registry_chunks_load_feature: Unknown type from typename '' for plugin 'ffmpeg'
0:00:00.117193000 17300   0x61cb50 ERROR           GST_REGISTRY gstregistrychunks.c:784:_priv_gst_registry_chunks_load_plugin: Error while loading binary feature for plugin 'ffmpeg'

A sample file is available at http://machintosh.net/mpegtssamples/vlc-output-1MB.ts that causes this behavior.  I have attached the debug output.
Comment 1 Tim-Philipp Müller 2010-02-18 10:38:57 UTC 
Is this still reproducable with current version of GStreamer and gst-ffmpeg?

If yes, could you attach:

 - a stack trace of the crash

 - a GST_DEBUG=*:5 log up until the crash

 - maybe the ~/.gstreamer-0.10/registry* file
Comment 2 Alan Mock 2010-02-18 20:31:01 UTC 
This is fixed in 0.10.26.
Comment 3 Tim-Philipp Müller 2010-02-18 23:04:16 UTC 
Great, thanks for the confirmation.
