Original commit message from CVS: Added an autoplug example. This little program (30 relevant lines) is able to play MPEG1(system)/MPEG2(system)/AVI(DIVX)/Vorbis/AC3 and whatever codec you write. Separated the mp3 and mpeg1 types for better reuse.
This directory contains various tests designed to verify GStreamer behavior. If any of them exit with a non-zero value, something's wrong.
