The problem is that Nokia now seems to be developing yet another abstraction layer. So we will have to be dealing the Phonon in KDE, Phonon in Qt and whatever Nokia brings up next and all the possible backends. The number of different paths that requires comprehensive testing has exploded. We are also debating which backend to use as the default for a long time and as usual, switching backends is exchanging one set of bugs with another so neither is going to be ideal. I would prefer Gstreamer as the backend simply because users can install a set of plugins (third party repo or Fluendo) and have their content play in all the different desktop environments. We can fix bugs once in Gstreamer and be done with it. However that depends on how much testing this backend has received and what bugs have been found and how severe they are.
