[maemo-developers] Help with with playing video files on Nokia 770

[From: Sharmila Saha]

Hello,
I am new to both gstreamer and maemo. Hence the ignorance : sorry if these
are very trivial questions. 
 
I am not able to play video files (mpeg4/avi etc.) on the Nokia 770 using
gstreamer. I have converted the video files to the Nokia format using a media
converter software. I am able to play the video with the default video player
on the 770 but when I try this through gstreamer,  I cannot  see any video. 
 
I either get the message "pipeline is prerolled" and nothing after this or
"pipeline is prerolling" and then no video (I am invoking the
commands/program through xterm). 
 
I also tried playbin with dspmpeg4sink - but I have the same problem. 
 
I have no problem with audio though - am able to play mp3/wav etc. 
 
I have tried both gst-launch and some example code - both give me similar
results. 
 
Can someone please tell me the list of filters that I should use to play an
avi file on the 770?
 
regards,
Sharmila
