No sound after adding support for gstreamer 1.0.

[bonidydy]

I've tried out the new version with added support for gstreamer 1.0. Unfortunately it doesn't work either with gstreamer 1.0 or 0.1. Tried on Debian sid.

Does it print anything if you start it from the command line?

No, nothing at all. There is also no message when I try to play any recording.

I'm on testing and it (obviously) works for me.

Can you debug the code? (For example, by adding a couple of "print" lines to ldoce5viewer/qtgui/utils/soundplayer.py) Which backend it decides to use? Can you uninstall Gstreamer 1.0? Will it work afterwards?

I might try to debug it on Debian sid, but it will take at least a couple of weeks before i will have time to do it.

I performed some tests on my Debian sid.

The old code for gstreamer 0.1 does not work if you happen to have installed "python-gi". Once "import gi" is executed "import gst" does not work anymore.

The new code for gstreamer 1.0 works properly if these packages are installed: python-gst-1.0 gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gir1.2-gst-plugins-base-1.0
