That is what I said in the beginning. Just depend on the QtMultimedia plugins
you need.

gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg in Jolla phone/Sailfish OS is not used for H264 decoding
at all.

gstreamer0.10-omx along with h264parse from plugins-bad are both responsible for
H264 but that is implementation detail. The GStreamer 1.x implementation uses a completely
different element for H264 decoding.

Also note that GStreamer 0.10 is not allowed for harbour apps and we are in the
process of migrating to GStreamer 1.x so if you depend on any 0.10 libraries/plugins
you will prevent your app from being accepted in harbour
