Description: Today I installed swfdec 0.8 and swfdec-mozilla 0.8 on my 64bit machine and I noticed that it stopped playing youtube videos. But the previous version of swfdec did that just fine.
On the console I saw the errors:

SWFDEC: ERROR: swfdec_codec_gst.c(211): swfdec_gst_decoder_init: failed to create decoder
SWFDEC: ERROR: swfdec_video_decoder.c(375): swfdec_video_decoder_errorv: error decoding video: no suitable decoder for video codec 2
SWFDEC: ERROR: swfdec_codec_gst.c(211): swfdec_gst_decoder_init: failed to create decoder
SWFDEC: ERROR: swfdec_audio_decoder.c(201): swfdec_audio_decoder_errorv: error decoding audio: no suitable decoder for audio codec 2

After some research I found out that I needed to install the packages 'gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg' and 'gstreamer0.10-ugly'.
Now everything works perfect. I think those packages should be dependencies of swfdec.
This task depends upon
