+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.
+
+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, rtmpdump, schroedinger, srt, soundtouch, swfdec,
+xvidcore, and nvidia*driver. 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 script the variable CUDA=yes
