Open your terminal and paste these line after line

wget http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/src/gstreamer/gstreamer-1.4.0.tar.xz
tar -xvf gstreamer-1.4.0.tar.xz
cd gstreamer-1.4.0

./configure --prefix=/usr \
            --with-package-name="GStreamer 1.4.0 BLFS" \
            --with-package-origin="http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/" &&
make
sudo make install

It will install and source

  • Thx bro I have 1 one more question for you when I installed this and typed gst in terminal i got gst-inspect-1.0 there is no gst-inspect-1.4.So that means it's registred as 1.0 but how can I know that I installed 1.4? I mean how can I check version ? – Haris Kovacevic Aug 30 '14 at 08:12
  • If you have gstreamer 1.0 installed remove it and restart your system and try again. – Raja G Aug 30 '14 at 09:04
  • I don't know is this a bug or what if I try to remove gstreamer it removes ubuntu-desktop in the process. – Haris Kovacevic Aug 30 '14 at 12:09

    @Raja To verify the version number, run the following command: gst-inspect-1.0 --version – mchid Jan 23 '16 at 23:31

I created a PPA with gstreamer 1.4.3 for Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr).

    The code names are used before the Ubuntu release is shipped. Later the numbers should be used: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DevelopmentCodeNames – MadMike Oct 31 '14 at 12:34
