Description Ivan Georgiev 2010-07-28 02:00:10 UTC 
Trying to play mpeg-4 files in Gnome using the Totem player with the gstreamer backend is not possible.
The plugin responsible for mpeg-4 playback is gstreamer-ffmpeg. The plugin builds and installs fine from the ports collection, but subsequently is not detected as a plugin by the gstreamer plugin backend, making playback of file formats relying on the plugin not possible. The problem is inherent for version gstreamer-ffmpeg-0.10.11.

Fix: There is a patch provided which pathces the ports/gstreamer-ffmpeg Makefile and solves the problem. Patch was provided by kwm - Koop Mast. 

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: Build the latest gnome metaport and try to play a mpeg-4 file using any player relying on the gstreamer backend.
