Description Meg Ford 2013-11-03 03:56:31 UTC
Right now the sound recorder shows an error dialog and stops recording if a plugin is missing. It would be helpful to use GstPbutils to ask users if they would like to install the missing plugins.Gstreamer has a useful method for this, GStPbutilsinstallplugins [1].
