Bug Description
I'm using Brasero 0.8.2 on Intrepid. Now brasero seems to have video DVD support, but if I try to burn a video file, in the burn dialogue the burn button is greyed out without a clue of how to fix the problem. That's very disorienting.
SRU JUSTIFICATION:
With brasero being the default burning application in Jaunty, many users will want to burn Video-CDs/DVDs. The problem is that gst-plugins-bad miss some ffmpeg-encoders due to not being built with mjpegtools support. From the buildlog:
configure: *** Plug-ins with dependencies that will NOT be built:
mpeg2enc
mplex
This results in brasero not being able to burn Video.
The issue can be fixed by adding libmjpegtools-dev (>= 1.9.0) to the build-depends.
SRU TEST CASE:
Make sure you got all the necessary plugins installed:
gstreamer0.
Open brasero with "brasero -g > log.txt 2>&1"
Check in log.txt that the libbrasero-vob.so plugin fails to load.
Now install gstreamer0.
Reopen brasero again, you'll now notice that libbrasero-vob.so plugin will load. Consequently, Video burning now works as expected.
NOTE: due to bug 351017 you will encounter a SIGILL if you convert video to mpeg2 and are running a non-pentium4 architecture. A fix for that has already been accepted in jaunty-proposed.
SRU REGRESSION POTENTIAL:
Low to non-existent since there is no code change and only 2 plugins more are built and installed.
