There is a Windows binary bundle on the GStreamer download site:
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/download/
How hard would it be to include all GStreamer OS X libs in the GStreamer plugin? If we had one media playback solution for all platforms, that would be awesome ...

He is helpfully cleaning up things, it was rushed a bit since it went from a paper idea to a plugin, api, sunits, and a player in a three week period on the macintosh and OLPC.
So he's refactoring now, but that won't affect anything in the source tree. I *had* tried to avoid any source files but was force to make the squeakAudioVideoPipeLineSignalInterface./c/h ones to support callbacks for media source/sink interfacing to squeak. Those would be cross platform.
I have no plans to provide any macintosh specific files since the process of installing gstreamer on os-x is non-trivial. Well it is trivial if you consider os-x to be a unix system and you are happy with using the BSD Ports system to install a hundred or so unix components, which might be the case if you wanting a fully configured X11 based unix which happens to be a macintosh....
Obviously this is a high hurdle for a macintosh etoy user to deal with, and requires using of a Terminal session, and debugging when the installation goes wrong, which it does...
However I understand installing GStreamer on Windows is less invasive?

No problems with the GStreamerPlugin so far.

Josh was just looking at GStreamer. I don't think he has any problems but just in case I'm cc-ing him for comments.

Hi, I'm about to commit (add) cross-platform directories to support GStreamerPlugin and OggPlugin. If anyone thinks this is a bad idea, please speak now. (FYI: the unix tree will also be getting ClipboardExtendedPlugin, DBusPlugin, RomePlugin and ImmX11Plugin in the same commit.) Cheers, Ian
