Well actually, it's amazing.  I've just been trying it.

It's not so easy to install you have to install libgirepository1.0-dev 
first (apt-get install libgirepository1.0-dev).

This code:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
    use strict;

    use Glib::Object::Introspection;
    Glib::Object::Introspection->setup (basename => 'Gst', version => 
'1.0', package => 'GStreamer');
    my @version=();
    @version = GStreamer::version();
    print "This program is linked against GStreamer @version\n";
    my $i = GStreamer::init ([$0, @ARGV]);

Gave me "This program is linked against GStreamer 1 2 3 0".

However, when I tried:

    my $play = GStreamer::ElementFactory -> make("playbin", "play");

I get:

*** GStreamer::ElementFactory::make: passed too many parameters 
(expected 2, got 3); ignoring excess at ~/test_code/GStreamer_test_4.pl 
line 129.

When I drop the final parameter, I get an empty string passed in $play.

Any ideas?

Regards

Steve.
