The GStreamer Bad Plug-ins package contains a set of plug-ins that aren't up to par compared to the rest. They might be close to being good quality, but they're missing something - be it a good code review, some documentation, a set of tests, a real live maintainer, or some actual wide use.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS 11.3 platform.

User Notes: https://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/gst10-plugins-bad
If you need a plugin for a given dependency, that dependency needs to be installed before this package.
Install GStreamer Bad Plug-ins by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && meson --prefix=/usr \ --buildtype=release \ -Dgpl=enabled \ -Dpackage-origin=https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/11.3-systemd/ \ -Dpackage-name="GStreamer 1.22.0 BLFS" && ninja
To test the results, issue: ninja test. Several tests need a terminal emulator in a graphical session. two tests, elements_vapostproc and elements_vacompositor are known to fail. If gst-plugins-good-1.22.0 is not installed, two tests elements_rtpsrc and elements_rtpsink will fail.
Now, as the root
user:
ninja install
--buildtype=release
:
Specify a buildtype suitable for stable releases of the package, as
the default may produce unoptimized binaries.
-Dgpl=enabled
: Without this
switch, plugins with dependencies on (A)GPL licensed libraries are
not built.
