xine demuxer problem

[phreak0ut]

I just installed on my FC5 (64 bit) distro. The installation went smoothly, but I'm getting an error. I'm posting the screenshot here. Please tell me what it means and how I can correctly.

Thanks in advance

What file are you trying to open? Are all codecs installed?

 

[phreak0ut]

I get it as soon as I open Xine. I don't know if all the codecs are installed. How do I check it? Doesn't Xine install all the codecs?

please use thumbnails for images instead of full images.

 

[mehulved]

No xine doesn't install all the plugins when installed. I don't know much about 64-bit OS's. But have heard that there are some problems with it. Maybe someone will help with that part.

Thanks a lot for the link. I wanted to put a thumbnail, but I didn't know how to do that, So, I posted the whole screenshot there. Please do let me know how to post a thumbnail so that I can avoid that in the future. Also, can you please tell me which video player to use? I installed VLC player, but it closes immediately when I choose a file to play. Should I start a new thread on this or can you guys help me out here itself?

Also issue command 'xine-check' in the terminal and see if that gives anything missing.

For thumbnails upload the pic to some site like imageshack.us and it will give you a link to post in forums, use that.

Here's the output of that command.

I used an imaging hosting site to hotlink that image which I have posted there. Next time, I'll just post the link

 

[mehulved]

x86_64 bit?so you r running 32 or 64 bit OS?

 

[mehulved]

He's got 64bit FC5 prakash, check his 1st post.

 

[praka123]

then there is some problem with running w32codecs dependent files na?may be checking /usr/lib/win32/ for files will help and what is *.mpv extension?

 

[kalpik]

Yes, 64 bit distros have perennial problems with multimedia.

Oops!! I thought I could squeeze the juice of my processor with the 64 bit edition as I still can't afford a 64 bit Windows Ed. Too bad. Probably I'll try something from 32 bit stables next time on Linux..

 

[JGuru]

You can install 32-bit Linux. It will work perfectly in a 64-bit Processor. That should solve your multimedia problems.

 

[mehulved]

64-bit computing is a while away still IMO. Maybe about 6 months max.

 

[praka123]

chroot soltns are available for running multimedia things on 64bit,but if u r adventerous that i mean!
