Install on Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit requires additional libraries

[jeffThompson]

On Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit, I found that I needed to install a few extra libraries to get the Video library to work, including an older version of libgstreamer.

sudo apt-get install libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev gstreamer0.10-plugins-good

After that, everything worked great 😀.

Hi

same problem, but less luck with solution. I've copypasted the command, but video is still not working.

On my vanilla Ubuntu Xenial installation I had to add to your command:

gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
gstreamer0.10-packagekit
gstreamer0.10-x

Now it works, more or less: MOV videos must be coded "baseline profile" to run.

@dackdel Do you get that error with the latest beta version of the library? It should work with a standard Ubuntu distribution using GStreamer 1.x

@codeanticode running 19.10 now and i get Processing video library using GStreamer 1.16.1 NullPointerException this error with the latest beta version of the lib. Im running pop os, pretty standard flavour of ubuntu.
