Gstreamer ASF decoder missing

So i am trying to play dark souls and after i create my character it is supposed to play a cinematic but it is not playing it because i am missing the ASF decoder plug in from Gstreamer . i installed the plug in which is found in the gst-plugins-ugly package from what i have read from their page and it's not playing it back . here is also the log from the game

Re: Gstreamer ASF decoder missing

You usually need the lib32 variants for wine compat and there only exists an outdated AUR package for that, one could try and adapt that relevantly, but I haven't looked into that much.
