Result! I’ve got DivX working on Moblin 2.1
Monday, November 16th, 2009Barky posted an easy to follow set of instructions as a comment on moblin.org. It’s bound to get lost as the old comments get purged so I’ve reproduced it below so I can find it again myself 
Here’s what you need to do…
Build gstreamer modules
———————–
get the gstreamer packages: from http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/src/
from the gst-ffmpeg directory get gst-ffmpeg-0.10.9.tar.bz2 extract to Download directory
from the gst-plugins-bad directory get gst-plugins-bad-0.10.16.tar.bz2 extract to Download directory
from the gst-plugins-base directory get gst-plugins-base-0.10.25.tar.bz2 extract to Download directory
from the gst-plugins-good directory get gst-plugins-good-0.10.16.tar.bz2 extract to Download directory
from the gst-plugins-ugly directory get gst-plugins-ugly-0.10.13.tar.bz2 extract to Download directory
from the gstreamer directory get gstreamer-0.10.25.tar.bz2 extract to Download directory
Install build dependent packages:
yum install gcc bison flex *glib* *diff* liboil*dev*
Build the modules in this order:
cd ./gstreamer-0.10.25
./configure -prefix=/usr && make && make install
cd ../gst-plugins-base-0.10.25
./configure -prefix=/usr && make && make install
cd ../gst-plugins-good-0.10.16
./configure -prefix=/usr && make && make install
cd ../gst-plugins-bad-0.10.16
./configure -prefix=/usr && make && make install
cd ../gst-plugins-ugly-0.10.13
./configure -prefix=/usr && make && make install
cd ../gst-ffmpeg-0.10.9
./configure -prefix=/usr && make && make install
reboot just to be safe!
Enjoy!
