Dear Archers
I am not getting any audio output with gstreamer phon-on backend. Last time (before my system crashed):|, when I had the same problem, I had changed to XINE.
Is Gstreamer, a WASTE? Do I have to install XINE again
Finally, installed XINE

You will need to install the plugin packs (good, bad, ugly) to play files with GStreamer. The base package of GStreamer doesn't include any plugins for codecs.
That said, I've had the same problem as you, even with all the plugin packs installed, so I'd just stick with the Xine backend. That works for me.

Thanks for your reply. Could not find any plugins. Pl. see below
[san2ban@SANJAY ~]$ sudo pacman -Sy gstreamer0.10 plug-ins

The simplest solution to get Gstreamer plugins would probably be to run
pacman -S gstreamer0.10-plugins
like mrunion suggested. Realistically you'll need all three Gstreamer plugin groups to play most files anyway. I know AAC files are covered under the ugly group, for example. If you want to see what gstreamer0.10-plugins package group is pulling in, you can use
pacman -Sg gstreamer0.10-plugins
instead.
But like I said earlier, from my experience that won't solve your problem, so if that doesn't work for you, just switch to the Xine backend in Phonon. That's your best bet.

Dear All
Thanks for your suggestions. I have loaded XINE and everything is fine.
I did not want to deviate from the KISS principle, by loading XINE and gstreamer both.
I have no choice.
I request the moderaters to pl. close this topic
