Would have been much better if it did not require the compilation of gstreamer

Managed to compile gstreamer with

meson -Dpython=disabled build

Beat me to it, came back to post ... if you don't need the python plugin try

meson.py -Dgst-python:plugin=disabled --reconfigure <YourBuildDir>

Would have been much better if it did not require the compilation of gstreamer #1
