I know this is a year late, but I've encountered the same issue. Basically gstreamer0.10's -bad and -ugly plugins aren't in the latest version of Ubuntu's apt repository. Unfortunately, as OpenOB seems to be dead at the moment, we may have to wait for the relevant bits to be updated to gstreamer1.0.

In the meantime, the following will install gstreamer0.10 from an older repository:

Create/Edit the file /etc/apt/preferences to add the following:

Package: gstreamer0.10-plugins*
Pin: release n=trusty
Pin-Priority: 990

Copy the file /etc/apt/sources.list to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trusty.list: sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trusty.list

In /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trustly.list, change all references to 'xenial' (assuming Ubuntu 16.04) to 'trusty'

Update and install:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly

News from OpenOB. Are there alive alternatives to this project?

This isn't the best place for discussions but it is still being maintained in the sense of fixing any breaking bugs and ensuring ongoing compatibility with modern operating systems. It still works, just not getting new features (though one of its features is of course not having many features).
