seems to be multiarch-ish... Steve do you think it's something you could
check on?

Title:
  totem and banshee prompt for i386 plugin to play QuckTime on 64 bit
  system

Status in “gst-plugins-base0.10” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I try and play some QT files, both totem and banshee decide they
  haven't got an appropriate codec (event though I have the gstreamer
  good, bad, and ugly plugins installed). When I allow them to search
  for a suitable plugin, they suggest 'gstreamer0.10-plugins-good:i386'
  (and I do have the 64 bit version of gstreamer0.10-plugins-good
  installed).

  If run from the command line, the message is:

  ** Message: Error: Your GStreamer installation is missing a plug-in.
  gstdecodebin2.c(3233): gst_decode_bin_expose (): /GstPlayBin2:play/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin0/GstDecodeBin2:decodebin20:
  no suitable plugins found

  ** Message: Missing plugin: gstreamer|0.10|totem|Quicktime demuxer
  |decoder-video/quicktime, variant=(string)iso (Quicktime demuxer)

  At the moment, clicking on Install does absolutely nothing, but when
  this has happened in the past, clicking on Install warns that it will
  remove most of Ubuntu in order to install the i386 plugin.

  A file that demonstrates this problem is at:
  http://http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/video/2011/sep/15/bill-bailey-
  gary-numan-cars-video - it works fine in Firefox, but if I download it
  to the desktop (eg with the firefox Download YouTube videos plugin)
  and try to play in totem, I hit this bug.

  VLC plays the files just fine.
