GStreamer, embedded, and low latency are a bad combination

This has been a known fact inside Nokia (MeeGo) for quite a long time due to various performance issues we’ve had to workaround, but for some reason it wasn’t acknowledged as an issue when it was brought up in the mailing list . So, in order to proof beyond reasonable doubt that there is indeed an issue, I wrote this test .

gst-av 0.3; better performance for vorbis and mp3

So, I’ve been working on gst-av , a GStreamer plug-in to use FFmpeg codecs (only audio for now), in order to get it in good shape for ogg support . First, I had to fix oggdemux and flacparse to be compatible with tagreadbin, it seems I managed to do it (with the help of a patch from Sreerenj Balachandran), so now the custom tracker extractors are not needed any more.
