how to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad? WONT INSTALL

Question

hello AskUbuntu Ive been having trouble for a few days with AUDIO.Mid files for a few games i play like fallout 3 where i need to play AUDIO.mid files

what happens is when i try to play mid files it says needs gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad i click install nothing happens.

i tried searching the plug in on https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/saucy/gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad/ but it says package is virtual.

Ive tried googling for a deb but no such deb exists.

Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! Whilst this may theoretically answer the question, it would be preferable to include the essential parts of the answer here, and provide the link for reference. – Anwar Sep 08 '16 at 06:13
That's not an Ubuntu package or package installer, it's a source code tarball. Also, you linked to gst-plugins-base, not gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad (the "bad" plugins are not included in the "base" plugin package). It's different software. – Nick Weinberg Sep 08 '16 at 09:31
