GStreamer dll not found errors

[frankgould]

I have been using Kivy interpreter for over a year and today I tried to play audio in my app using the code below. It has worked in the past but when I tried it today, I got errors while trying to load the plugin.

    self.my_sound = SoundLoader.load(my_path + '/data/Polaris.mp3')
    if self.my_sound:
        self.my_sound.play()

Below are the stderr logcat results. I also get a window for each dll attempting to load saying dll not found. I tried 'python -m pip uninstall' for both gstreamer and dev then reinstalling but got the same errors. Please help!

Two questions, did you recently update kivy? If so, how and from what? If from a older kivy distributable and you now installed from the wheels, did you remove all the old files before the update?
2, does it work with other files, or just not with this file?

[frankgould]

No, I haven't recently updated kivy until today I ran another install because the app class was not found when I ran my app. I used the 'python -m pip install' CLI for kivy. I did not uninstall old before new install. Everything else works correctly as it had before my install attempts. I'm just continuing to get GStreamer problems as documented above. Thanks for your quick response!

[dessant]

You should uninstall/remove the old kivy and it's dependencies if you've used the portable package (and also, if not :P).

The cleanest way is to install python from the official source, then follow the installation guide and install kivy and its deps with pip.

The bug seems to be related to an outdated version, please open a new issue if you can still reproduce it with the latest version.

The solution to this problem is here , you should download this and put it in your python share folder.
