Hi Martin & Simon,

In my testing yesterday, I found that before the "fix", NONE of my video
files played on digikam.  After I built with ENABLE_MEDIAPLAYER=ON, then
at least some of my videos played.  But not all of them.

I wanted to ask whether this matches your experience.

The videos that did NOT play for me did emit a message about GStreamer
plugins, as the KDE bug alludes to.  I do have "good", "bad", and
"ugly" plugins installed.  So I'm at a loss here.

That sounds like the right one.

Thanks!
