Not sure if we have a bug here. Just fishing.

Gstreamer 1.4.0-1
Kivy Master

Anything else helpful?

I saw the same issue on MacOS El Capitan, and can confirm that brew install gst-plugins-bad solved the issue for me.

Install Gstreamer plugins to fix this error. Seems like I needed gst-plugings-bad for playing ogg files. All of this is on Linux, naturally.

On OS X I removed gstreamer directory from kivy/lib and it worked.
path on my machine was:
usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/kivy/lib
type: rm -R gstreamer
then try running the app

@noncup Thanks works for me too.

Having issue here as well, same message. Any other thoughts on it?

python 3.7
Kivy 1.10.1
Anaconda3

Never mind, created a new project and it's working now.

Appreciate
