The GStreamer Base Plug-ins is a well-groomed and well-maintained collection of GStreamer plug-ins and elements, spanning the range of possible types of elements one would want to write for GStreamer. It also contains helper libraries and base classes useful for writing elements. A wide range of video and audio decoders, encoders, and filters are included. Also see the GStreamer Good Plug-ins-0.10.17, GStreamer Ugly Plug-ins-0.10.10, GStreamer Bad Plug-ins and GStreamer FFmpeg plug-in packages.

User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/gst-plugins-base
Install GStreamer Base Plug-ins by running the following commands:
sed -i 's/\(.*gtkdoc-rebase --relative.* \)\(;.*\)/\1|| true\2/' \ docs/libs/Makefile.in && ./configure --prefix=/usr && make
To run the unit regression tests, issue: make check. There is one failure,
in elements/subparse. There are many other Makefile targets you can specify for running the
tests, issue make -C tests/check
help to see the complete list.
Now, as the root user:
make install
--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if
GTK-Doc is installed and you wish
to rebuild and install the API documentation.
sed -i 's/\(.*gtkdoc-rebase --relative.*
\)\(;.*\)/\1|| true\2/' \ docs/libs/Makefile.in: This
Makefile tests if gtkdoc-rebase is present, and
only uses it if it is, but the test which gtk-doc is interpreted as
an error by make if
gtkdoc-rebase is not
present. The sed
command ensures the command is always regarded as successful.
--disable-static: This switch prevents
the static libraries from being built.
