Hmm, this is on a Raspberry Pi under Raspbian. There seems to be a partial or broken gstreamer. dpgk-query shows ii gstreamer0.10-alsa:armhf 0.10.36-2 armhf GStreamer plugin for ALSA ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-base:armhf 0.10.36-2 armhf GStreamer plugins from the "base" set ii gstreamer1.0-alsa:armhf 1.14.4-2 armhf GStreamer plugin for ALSA ii gstreamer1.0-libav:armhf 1.15.0.1+git20180723+db823502-2 armhf libav plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer1.0-omx 1.14.4-1+rpt1 armhf GStreamer OpenMAX plugins ii gstreamer1.0-omx-rpi 1.14.4-1+rpt1 armhf OpenMax plugins for GStreamer ii gstreamer1.0-omx-rpi-config 1.14.4-1+rpt1 armhf OpenMax plugins for GStreamer ii gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad:armhf 1.14.4-1+b1 armhf GStreamer plugins from the "bad" set ii gstreamer1.0-plugins-base:armhf 1.14.4-2 armhf GStreamer plugins from the "base" set ii gstreamer1.0-plugins-good:armhf 1.14.4-1+rpt1 armhf GStreamer plugins from the "good" set ii gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly:armhf 1.14.4-1 armhf GStreamer plugins from the "ugly" set ii gstreamer1.0-x:armhf 1.14.4-2 armhf GStreamer plugins for X11 and Pango ii libgstreamer-gl1.0-0:armhf 1.14.4-2 armhf GStreamer GL libraries ii libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0:armhf 1.14.4-1+b1 armhf GStreamer libraries from the "bad" set ii libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0:armhf 0.10.36-2 armhf GStreamer libraries from the "base" set ii libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-0:armhf 1.14.4-2 armhf GStreamer libraries from the "base" set ii libgstreamer0.10-0:armhf 0.10.36-1.5 armhf Core GStreamer libraries and elements ii libgstreamer1.0-0:armhf 1.14.4-1 armhf Core GStreamer libraries and elements ii libreoffice-avmedia-backend-gstreamer 1:6.1.5-3+rpi1+deb10u6+rpt1 armhf GStreamer backend for LibreOffice But I don't find gst-launch other than the rygel one which I just installed from the debs. gst-inspect-1.0: command not found I've never explicitly used gstreamer so I don't know anything about it, just seen the name as a requirement.
