If it does, something is wrong with the plugin path or system path. gst-inspect-0.10 /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstcoreelements.so 2) Since you (wisely) seem to have kept the gstreamer debugging system enabled, you could check the GST_DEBUG log to see where it's looking for plugins and/or what it's trying to do: GST_DEBUG=*:7 gst-inspect-0.10 2>&1 | less -R Cheers -Tim
