WMV file plays video but no audio in Lucid
I can play a video on XP, but there's no audio in Lucid. The hardware is a Lenovo SL400, 2GB RAM, 7200rpm drive w/ 36GB free, and an Intel T5870 Core 2 Duo 2GHz CPU.
Media player and Banshee fails to play the video with the error message No packages with the requested plugins found The requested plugins are Windows Media Audio 9 Avidemux crashes when I try to open the 6.3GB file, which I can play with audio AOK in XP.

Error opening initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device. VLC says No suitable decoder module: VLC does not support the audio or video format "wmap". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this. Mediabuntu is installed in Sofware Sources. I uninstalled it, then reinstalled it. I also disabled, then reenabled, 'Software restricted by copyright or legal issues (multiverse)'; no joy. Also uninstalled then reinstalled Mplayer and Smplayer, to no avail. Did both repository install as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Me...e%20Repository and also sudo apt-get install w32codecs Your generous assistance with this vexacious problem is appreciated. Thank you kindly. |

Fatal error! Error opening initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.[/CODE] Mplayer either can't find the codecs where it is looking for them or you aren't using the correct video output device. Code:

You may want to uninstall mplayer and use mplayers packages and codecs if your repo isn't making things work for you. http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/ Good luck. Mplayer works well when installed correctly. |
