trying to get mopidy up and going on my mac mini but am running into an error when i scan my local flac media when running “mopidy local scan”.

Failed local:track:Counting%20Crows/Counting%20Crows%20-%20Underwater%20Sunshine%20%282012%29%20%5BFLAC%5D/Counting%20Crows%20-%20Underwater%20Sunshine%20%20-%2008.%20Coming%20Around.flac: Your GStreamer installation is missing a plug-in.

i’ve verified that gst-plugins-good has flac support:

justin@derp: ~ $ brew info gst-plugins-good

any ideas what else i can check?

thanks,

Can you play the file in question with GStreamer directly?

gst-launch-0.10 playbin2 uri=file:///path/to/your/media/dir/Counting%20Crows/Counting%20Crows%20-%20Underwater%20Sunshine%20%282012%29%20%5BFLAC%5D/Counting%20Crows%20-%20Underwater%20Sunshine%20%20-%2008.%20Coming%20Around.flac

Replace /path/to/your/media/dir with the correct path.

I was able to resolve the issue by reinstalling mopidy with the following command:

brew install mopidy/mopidy/mopidy

not sure why it didn’t work correctly the first time. i followed the docs to the “T”?

thanks for the help,
