Comment 46 for bug 1051559

@ hackel: I thinks that Canonical make 5 build for all version of Ubuntu ( amd6, armel, armhf i386, powerpc).

In odler version of Ubuntu (10.04 for exemple), gstreamer may read H264 but not perfectly as in Ubuntu 12.04 and Canonical don't want to support a spefic version with gstreamer enable and another with gstreamer disable.

And Gstreamer use a lot of FFmpeg. This last one forked (avconv/Libav) and there are a lot of trouble with that. This point could not help to take a decision
