No video preview on arch

[LeducH]

I want to use GIFcurry

I installed using the AUR when I open the program I get:

Error message

gtksink not found. No video preview available. Install all GStreamer 1.0 plugins

I am on arch and have the dependencies installed

❯ pacman -Q | grep -i gst                              
gst-libav 1.16.2-1
gst-plugins-bad 1.16.2-7
gst-plugins-bad-libs 1.16.2-7
gst-plugins-base 1.16.2-1
gst-plugins-base-libs 1.16.2-1
gst-plugins-good 1.16.2-3
gst-plugins-ugly 1.16.2-3
gst-python 1.16.2-2
gst-python2 1.16.2-1
gstreamer 1.16.2-1
phonon-qt5-gstreamer 4.10.0-1

How can this be resolved?

Hello,
I had the same issue and I resolved it by installing the following dependency: gst-plugin-gtk

Installing gst-plugin-gtk indeed solved the issue. And it is only about 50 KiB in size. I wonder, would it make sense to include it in the AppImage?

README links to these pages:

• GStreamer >= 1.0
  • GStreamer Plugins

But they don't even contain a "gtk" substring. I myself didn't know about existence of gst-plugin-gtk until today. So, probably it should be included with the distribution.
