[[File:Screenshot From 2025-03-28 09-58-50.png|thumb|nautilus: "Your GStreamer installation is missing a plug-in."]] | |||
To fix the issue I found the following solutions: | |||
* Using <code>nix-shell</code>:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash"> | |||
nix-shell -p gst_all_1.gstreamer gst_all_1.gst-plugins-base gst_all_1.gst-plugins-good gst_all_1.gst-plugins-bad gst_all_1.gst-plugins-ugly gst_all_1.gst-libav gst_all_1.gst-vaapi --run "nautilus" | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
*Using the environment variable "<code>GST_PLUGIN_PATH</code>":[[File:Screenshot From 2025-03-28 12-51-31.png|thumb|"Audio and Video Properties" of "Properties" window of nautilus after fix]]{{File|3={ config, pkgs, ... }: | |||
