>Description:
When installing PiTiVi from Ports, the program installs properly. When run, PiTiVi displays a pop-up saying it also requires alsasink or osssink to be present. The program then exits.
The requested packages are gstreamer plugins (gstreamer-oss and gstreamer-alsa). Installing the gstreamer-oss plugin fixes the problem, allowing PiTiVi to run normally.
Since the gstreamer-oss software is a run-time requirement, I think it should be made a depenrdency of PiTiVi.
>How-To-Repeat:
Execute as root:
cd /usr/ports/multimedia/pitivi
make install
Run PiTiVi. At start-up a pop-up will appear requesting the gstreamer software be installed. The program then exits.
>Fix:
At the moment, manually installing the gstreamer-oss software will correct the problem. However, I think this should be done automatically during by the port's makefile since it is a run-time requirement.
