    Using gstreamer1.0-libav seems to work, but it's really power hungry

    mplayer (which does use libav) and it doesn't have the same power
    issues.


Yes, gstreamer1.0-libav is a wrapper around libav.  gstreamer1.0-libav does 
default to using an internal copy of libav instead of the system one, but 
that's a PACKAGECONFIG away
from being changed - assuming that it builds - and might help.

Thanks, I'll give it a go.


Sadly, it doesn't build with the libav we have in OE-core :-(

BTW, I measured the current used by my board (i.MX6Q)
  mplayer2 => 1.8A
  gst-play => 2.1A
Given that I normally run my board with a 2.0A wall brick,
it's no wonder that it dies when I run gst-play.
