Re: [Totem] Browser plugin gstreamer

I just wanted to add once again that i see a huge benefit in having a
generic browser plugin.

Having Gtk+ code inside GST or even the plugin being part of GST is
certainly not the right way,
but having a reusable video component based on Gtk+ and GST Is IMO the right
way.

For one of my apps, i copied big parts of the Totem video code in order to
have a well working
video widget.

Certainly also it is somehow possible to have a generic video component
which Totem can also
reuse, even if with much work.

If it could be agreed upon having this, i would be willing to stop current
projects of mine and work
towards separating the video component code.

Thoughts?
