That's because you haven't looked, in at least one of those cases:

[sam@samlap ~]$ yum search pitfdll
Loaded plugins: dellsysidplugin2, fastestmirror, merge-conf,
post-transaction-
              : actions, presto, refresh-packagekit, upgrade-helper,
verify
Warning: No matches found for: pitfdll

oh well, I don't believe it's necessary anyway...

[sam@samlap ~]$ yum info gstreamer-ffmpeg
Loaded plugins: dellsysidplugin2, fastestmirror, merge-conf,
post-transaction-
              : actions, presto, refresh-packagekit, upgrade-helper,
