gst-plugins-bad-nonfree (encumbered set of GStreamer plugins) GStreamer Bad Plug-ins is a set of plug-ins that aren't up to par compared to the rest. They might be close to being good quality, but they're missing something - be it a good code review, some documentation, a set of tests, a real live maintainer, or some actual wide use. Since gst-plugins-bad-free is part of Slackware, this package only includes the plugins that are not already in gst-plugins-bad-free. Despite the -nonfree in the name, not all of these are encumbered: some just aren't included in Slackware because it lacks the optional dependencies. This optionally depends on TiMidity++, aom, amrnb, amrwb, celt, chromaprint, DirectFB, faac, faad2, flite, gsm, ladspa_sdk, libass, libcdaudio, libdc1394, libdca, libfdk-aac, libkate, liblrdf, libmimic, libmodplug, libmusicbrainz, libofa, libquicktime, libsrtp, lv2, musepack-tools, nvidia*driver, rtmpdump, schroedinger, srt, soundtouch, swfdec, x265, xvidcore, and zxing. And probably a few more that we've missed. Note that if you have any version of the nvidia drivers installed, the script would autodetect them and will try to build its nvdec support, requiring the presence on the system of cudatoolkit too. As cudatoolkit is *huge*, cuda support is disabled by default but it can be explicitly enabled passing the CUDA=yes in the environment.
