@dreieck: This package is indeed missing a prepare function; however what you're referring to are submodules of cargo crates. See Rust package guidelines.

Ahoj,

this PKGBUILD downloads stuff in build().

This should not happen.

Please move the download, that cannot be handled in the source array, to the prepare() function, so that build() and package() can run in an offline environment.

Also, please download git submodules via the source array and reference them in prepare(), es explained here in the Arch Linux wiki for -git packages.

Here an excerpt from the terminal:

Regards and thanks for the package!

I can confirm what @taivlam reported. This time I have no clue what's required for gstreamer to fetch media from peertube. Last time it was hard for me to find what to use to fetch data from youtube. @fosdd, if it's working for you, can you examine the packages you have installed, and look for any that you might suspect helps fetching multimedia information from peertube or websites, like gtuber does, but gtuber doesn't fetch for peertube info, :(

I installed this package and when I tried playing a video, I observed a Missing Plugin error stating the following:

Your GStreamer installation is missing a plugin: PEERTUBE protocol source

Is this error related to this package, or something else?

Thanks for finding the issue! I've added it to depends.

I've been trying all day. What was missing as a dependency is gtuber which provides gst-plugins-gtuber. Not sure if the dependencies are missing some required plugin, since I already had a bunch of them. But for sure gtuber is missing to be added into the dependencies.

This is cool, because I don't need to use the electron freetube app, :)

I installed gst-plugin-qmlgl which I didn't have, and no luck, but if you notice, that's a QML plugin, probably required for plasma, not GTK applications.

That said, by using GST_DEBUG=INFO I noticed:

0:00:05.683427213 20585 0x7ebde0002910 WARN                 default descriptions.c:1238:gst_pb_utils_get_codec_description: No description available for media type: text/html

Though this doesn't tell me much. Perhaps someone understand what's going on.

The missing txt/html plugin is shown on pipeline, when trying to play, those other logs show up in the console when launching pipeline from the console like GST_DEBUG=INFO pipeline |& tee pipeline_gtk_log.txt.

Greetings !

I had this packages installed:

I'm getting when trying to play anything:

your gstreamer installation is missing a plugin: text/html decoder

Though I have installed:

Not sure which gstreamer plugin I'm missing. Does anyone know? BTW, maybe add it as an opt-dep?

Thanks !
