gstreamer-sharp C# application deployment

Can anyone tell me the proper way to deploy a C# WinForms application that uses gstreamer-sharp? The only way I can get it to work is to work is by setting the gstreamer bin directory as my Application's working directory.

I have seen examples trying to temporarily set the application's path to the various gstreamer directories, but this still does not work for me and I get errors that DLL's are missing.

Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH") + ";C:\\gstreamer\\1.0\\x86\\bin\\");
        Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", 
Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH") + ";C:\\gstreamer\\1.0\\");
        Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", 
Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH") + ";C:\\gstreamer\\1.0\\x86\\lib\\");
        Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", 
Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH") + ";C:\\gstreamer\\1.0\\x86\\");

Should I just deploy all of the gstreamer DLLs inside my application's bin driectory? I was hoping to have them run the installer and then my application could could reference it.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Adding the bin directory only should be enough. You can look at https://github.com/Vocaluxe/Vocaluxe/blob/develop/Vocaluxe/Lib/Sound/Playback/GstreamerSharp/CGstreamerSharpAudio.cs to see how initialization is done in Vocaluxe.

Probably the easiest solution I can come up with is manually putting the gstreamer bin directory in the system's PATH.
