Codecs


Hiya,

Im on SuSE 10. It has no video codecs for MPEG or AVI formats. Does anyone know where I can get hold of a load of working codecs for SuSE that would work on all video players especially xine based ones?

Cheers

You can get the "All" codecs package here.

From the included README:

Code:
Put the files contained in this archive in a directory where MPlayer will find
them. The default directory is /usr/local/lib/codecs/ ($prefix/lib/codecs/) if
you are compiling from source, but you can change that value by passing the
'--with-codecsdir' option to './configure'.

If you use a prebuilt MPlayer package it will most likely be /usr/lib/codecs,
see the documentation of your package for details.

In the past /usr/local/lib/win32 or /usr/lib/win32 was the default directory,
some packages as well as a few other Unix players like xine and avifile still
use it, refer to their documentation for further details.
