Public bug reported:
With gstreamer1.0-vaapi installed, parole fails to play videos with
codecs supported by my hardware. I usually get an error box with
"GStreamer encountered a general stream error.", but sometimes parole
just hangs. Videos with other codecs still play as expected.
Accelerated playback works with "gst-launch-1.0 playbin", so I assume
the problem is in parole, not in GStreamer.
I use the in-kernel radeon driver.
