Hi

Any idea how to get latest GStreamer on rasberry 2 ?

I have installed gstreamer1.0 and the required library’s

root:~# mopidy --version  
ERROR: Mopidy requires GStreamer \>= 1.2.3, but found GStreamer 1.2.0.

You’re running Pi Musicbox 0.6, which is based on Raspbian Wheezy.

wheezy-backports has GStreamer 1.2.4, and we know we need bug fixes from 1.2.3, thus we require 1.2.3. I was under the belief that wheezy-backports would make installing Mopidy 2.0 achievable on Wheezy systems, but it looks like Raspbian hasn’t rebuilt the wheezy-backports dist for the Raspberry Pi CPU architecture.

I don’t have a simple solution for you, and would rather spend my time on helping with making a new Pi Musicbox release.

Musicbox has these two mirrors, aside from [apt.mopidy.com](http://apt.mopidy.com):

- [http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/dists/wheezy/main/binary-armhf/Packages](http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/dists/wheezy/main/binary-armhf/Packages)
- [http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/dists/wheezy/main/binary-armhf/Packages](http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/dists/wheezy/main/binary-armhf/Packages)

The first one doesn’t contain GStreamer 1.x at all. The second only seems to include version 1.2.0, while we now require at least 1.2.3.

Since you have a Raspberry PI 2, you should be able to solve this by adding the mirror:

```
deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy-backports main

```

And run an upgrade.

The other possible solution would be to upgrade to jessie.

I upgrade by adding `deb http://vontaene.de/raspbian-updates/ . main`

```auto

gst-launch-1.0 version 1.2.4
GStreamer 1.2.4
http://packages.qa.debian.org/gstreamer1.0

```

```auto
# mopidy --version
Mopidy 2.0.0

```

mopidy starts but something i not OK, there is eror in log

`add_probe()` does indeed take a `user_data` argument we don’t pass to it, but that should be optional. I suspect that you hasn’t installed python-gst-1.0 which includes overrides to the GI provided API to make it better to work with.

Do you know only have packages from Raspbian Jessie or is there a mix of packages from Raspbian armhf (ARMv6++) and Debian armhf (ARMv7)?

Ok, that was quite a bold move to temporarily remove python2.7 as large parts of a typical Linux distro depends on Python. But if it worked, great! 🙂
