Cannot upload video and audio. Unhandled exception

[zoro]

So I followed this steps exactly: ​https://raspiblog.noblogs.org/post/2018/02/11/installation-of-gnu-mediagoblin/

pyexiv2 did not work so I removed it from mediagoblin_ini
I have configured systemd services as per in the docs production deployment. I have successfully uploaded Images and PDF files but whenever I upload audio and/or video, I get the error:

in audio:

I have reviewed all config and tickets but still no fix. I used python3, python2 appears to not work for me, also I use nginx, debian 9.3.

It looks like there's a problem with your GStreamer packages. You might be missing some packages or you might have an old version. If you have trouble following the steps on someone's blog, perhaps you should contact the blog author for help.

all gstreamer are installed. I installed it using python3 and I do not know how to get backtrace to possibly get the errors. I will retry installation on python2 later

I have managed to fix the audio upload issue by following the patch: https://issues.mediagoblin.org/attachment/ticket/5457/0001-Use-audio-icon-when-spectrogram-fails.-Add-note-to-d.patch

it is related to the spectogram generator, since I am using python3 it wont work so It is just a static audio image now. Still, whenever I go to the uploaded item the audio player in my instance of mediagoblin is missing but I can download the audio file (webm or original).

I do still need help on the video upload it still says TypeError Object ... can you give me example on how to get the backtrace so I can show it to you. The gstreamer apt -get are all installed as shown in the above post. I really need help. Thank You

UPDATE: I have enabled gstreamer debug and added gstreamer version (
27 os.environGST_DEBUG = '4,python:4'
38 gi.require_version('GstPbutils', '1.0')
)

in the file /srv/mediagoblin/mediagoblin/mediagoblin/media_types/video/transcoders.py

$ ./lazyserver.sh --server-name=fcgi fcgi_host=127.0.0.1 fcgi_port=26543 -v
the log after uploading webm video is attached above.
https://issues.mediagoblin.org/attachment/ticket/5561/VIDEOUPLOADWEBMERROR.log

still the error appears to be in the python script?
