Right now Chromium doesn't start at all (and I'm looking into it).

Gstreamer-1.0 freezes instantly with my test video streams. As I've
invested some time in the past to really force gstreamer-0.10 to work,
I'm quite reluctant to go forward with gstreamer-1.0, especially when
its MPEGTS implementation is, well... half-working. So I'm sticking with
what I've made to work so far.

Regards,
Nikolay

PS: I'm dreaming for the day when I can ditch gstreamer and start using
VLC with imx VPU...
