Comment 19 for bug 1530229

Some apps don't work without winegstreamer. The workaround for bug 30557 for those apps is to apply one of the patches linked in that bug that fixes the issue. Just disabling winegstreamer only turns one crash/nonworking bug into another crash/nonworking bug.

Some apps may fail gracefully without the support and just not play video (which is not ideal anyway), but others refuse to work properly if video playback fails. Both bugs need fixing.
