title: GStreamer x264enc not found
body: <p>I installed GStreamer-0.10 and all modules (base, good, bad, ugly, ffmpeg) according to these instructions (browse through by clicking prev/next):
  <a href="http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/multimedia/gst-plugins-ugly.html" rel="noreferrer">http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/multimedia/gst-plugins-ugly.html</a></p>
  
  <p>Everything seemed to have worked just fine but when I want to execute my pipeline I got this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>glib.GError: no element "x264enc"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Apparently the module was not installed:</p>
  
  <pre><code>gst-inspect x264enc
  No such element or plugin 'x264enc'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>After that I installed the codec by executing:</p>
  
  <pre><code>sudo apt-get install x264
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This did not work either. So I installed the latest build manually:
  <a href="http://www.videolan.org/developers/x264.html" rel="noreferrer">http://www.videolan.org/developers/x264.html</a></p>
  
  <p>After a successful installation of x264 I ran ./configure on the gstreamer-0.10 ugly modules once again and found out about this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>configure: *** checking feature: x264 plug-in ***
  configure: *** for plug-ins: x264 ***
  checking for X264... no
  configure: No package 'x264' found
  configure: *** These plugins will not be built: x264
  configure: creating ./config.status
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>A check if x264 is available seems to get fullfilled:</p>
  
  <pre><code>which x264
  /usr/local/bin/x264
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm using ubuntu server 12.04 LTS. Any ideas what I have to do to compile this module properly? Thanks!</p>
