For users who don't want to have to build gst-plugins-bad, I've provided a binary XPI on the Songbird add-ons site here:
http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addons/1354 If you install Alfred's Songbird 1.0.0rc2 build below, and then go to the above URL in Songbird and install that add-on - you should be all set for media playback. Many thanks to Alfred as usual for providing the Songbird 1.0.0rc2 build. :) cheers, steve On 11/15/08 8:52 AM, Alfred Peng wrote: > Just uploaded Songbird 1.0.0rc2pre for OpenSolaris: > http://releases.mozilla.com/sun/Songbird-Solaris/songbird-1.0.0rc2.en-US.opensolaris-i386.tar.bz2. > To make it work, you'll have to build a plugin element "input-selector" > which is in gst-plugins-bad.
