Right - that was my first step after getting that error message. There 
is no gstreamer-*.pc file anywhere in that directory or below. From what 
I understand because package-config wasn't used - as it is a linux utility.

I also i tried adding the bin and lib sub directories of c:/gstreamer, 
where the dll's exist to that PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable to no avail.
