Comment 7 for bug 1062332

The error seems to come from this part of the code:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/sound-juicer/tree/libjuicer/sj-extractor.c#n686

It is trying to create a "giosink" GStreamer element.

This is a standard element, but it didn't seem to be showing up in the output of gst-inspect-0.10. The library implementing the element was present, so I guess something got confused along the way.

I was able to fix the problem by issuing the following two commands:

    rm ~/.gstreamer-0.10/registry.*.bin
    gst-inspect-0.10 > /dev/null

This should cause all the GStreamer plugins to be rescanned to find out what elements they implement, and was enough to make giosink available again.

I've got no idea what would have caused the problem though.
