There are over 170 different modules that can be built, providing GStreamer the capability to create a pipeline for almost every known media stream.

This issue has been reported upstream. Now, as the root user: make install && gst-register Command Explanations sed -i '...' configure: The check for the OpenGL (Mesa) libraries will fail because the proper directory is not included in the search path. This command fixes the problem. : Use this option if you have the GNOME-2 GConf package installed. : Use this option to build the GDK pixbuf loader module if you have GTK+-2 installed. : Use this option to build the Xine wrapper module if you have the Xine Libraries package installed. Note: all other modules are built if the configure script discovers the required dependency package. To prevent a module from being built, pass to configure. Run configure --help for all the available module names.
