the comments above, Would it be ok if I move it back to
    PKG_ENABLE_MODULES_VLC([GSTREAMER_DECODE], [gstdecode],
[gstreamer-app-1.0 gstreamer-video-1.0], [gstreamer blah blah ], [auto])
    That'd actually simplify a lot and make it much shorter, as also
suggested by Jean.

   One is int and the other is unsigned int! I put them to avoid the
compiler warnings.

>    Surely, but opaque data would still be raw data, right? Did you mean
that opaque data would have
   different mime-type? In GStreamer 1.0, it is now a "GstCapsFeature" for
memory-type in opaque
   data types in such cases, whilst keeping the mime-type to "video/x-raw"
only.

   Currently it only supports "video/x-raw(memory:system)" under raw video
formats. As and when,
   more formats are added like opaque video data, the "if" check can be
ORed with them.
