[BUG] Gstreamer warnings, errors on attempted video playback #47

Open vilmibm opened 2 days ago

vilmibm commented 2 days ago

Describe the bug

When trying to open videos on Fedora 39 (.mkv, .mp4, and youtube) I get warnings and errors.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install library dependencies
  2. Install tplay via cargo
  3. Try to play any video

Expected behavior

A video plays or an error tells me what action I might take to fix the problem.

Additional context

It's entirely possible/probable that this isn't a bug at all and I just need to do some more work to get this working on Fedora; I don't mind doing that work but am stuck and could use a pointer towards what I might be missing on my system. I installed equivalent packages as those listed for Ubuntu and successfully compiled and ran tplay via cargo.

I can open image files fine.

It looks like a known bug https://github.com/maxcurzi/tplay/issues/19

I noticed it when briefly testing tplay on Fedora.

However back then I could still play other videos, or the same video when I downloaded it with yt-dlp but didn't have time to look into it further

I'm not sure what's going on here and why this happens in Fedora but not other distros.

Maybe I'll make some progress on it once I update dependencies as part of other PRs

Knowing that you also ran into issues with Fedora is a good clue; I will poke around and report back if I figure anything out.
