Streaming ogg through Exaile [SOLVED]

Hello,

I am trying to use the Librivox plugin in Exaile to stream ogg files, but when I do I get the message "A ogg demuxer plugin is required to play this stream, but not installed". I have libogg plus all the gstreamer packages installed.

Shoutcast radio is telling me I don't have the necessary plugins to stream that either. In addition to this I can't play any files in my library, but that is ok since I use Amarok for that. I am mainly concerned with streaming oggs.

Any idea how I can make this work?

OK, it turns out that Exaile didn't pull in the gstreamer0.10-base-plugins when I installed it. Installing those fixed the streaming ogg problems. I am still not able to stream shoutcast radio, but no big deal there.

I had the exact same problem playing mpeg-4 audio.  Thanks for mentioning how you fixed it.
