no video on saluki

#1 Post by wsamh »

For some reason I am not getting video playback. When I play a video I get this:

No suitable decoder module:
VLC does not support the audio or video format "h264". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.
No suitable decoder module:
VLC does not support the audio or video format "mp4a". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.

For some reason I can't play wmv files. I can play everthing else besides that format.

Can't play from disk or stream? If the latter- we have a link?

# vlc
VLC media player 2.0.4 Twoflower (revision 2.0.3-289-g6e6100a)
[0x80d5028] main interface error: no suitable interface module
[0x804cb40] main libvlc error: interface "globalhotkeys,none" initialization failed
[0x804cb40] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
[0x822bbc0] main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `MSS2'. VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.
[wmavoice @ 0x822c180] WMAPro-in-WMAVoice support not implemented. Update your FFmpeg version to the newest one from Git. If the problem still occurs, it means that your file has a feature which has not been implemented.

I don't know why.. Is there a newer ffmpeg in the repo? Perhaps one of the compilers'll chime in..

*Since these things tend to have different encodings, can you play this file- flt_pass.wmv.gz

Then I suspect the encoding of your files is one VLC won't <???> be able to play.

Have you got a small one for me to sample?

If no sample, try a conversion. Searching you'll find plenty more examples..

Yeah. Don't worry about it. I tried it on precise puppy and it did the same thing. So I tried converting the files to avi and it works. Thanks for the help.
