MPEG 2 support
Hello all! Using SLED RC3 and trying to get mpg2 support. Can anyone inform me on how to get mpg2 support working? I have a lot of home videos that i have cat'ted together and now would like to play them using totem. Thanks

The easiest way may be to go to the http://rpm.pbone.org website. In the advanced search, select "SuSE Other". This will give you results from the Packman repositories. The OpenSuSE versions of xine, mplayer, xmms and other programs won't have support for playing DVDs or mp3's. The pbone site will also have handy links to the dependencies if any that you need. You may want to uninstall the versions that you have installed already first. I'm not certain what the differences are between the libraries and program versions (regarding mp3 support, etc) between SLED and SuSE linux. The release notes may provide more information.
You can also go to the mplayerhu website and download the win32 codecs package which will help you play back WMVs and AVIs. http://www.mplayerhq.hu/ --- Wait a minute, is SLED RC3 SuSE or RedHat? |
Thanks but the rpm.pbone link is dead. Redirects to a dead site. I can goto packman site and search on "mpeg2" and find 3 or 4 different packages (http://packman.links2linux.org/?action=381). Is this the lib/decoder i need to play mpeg2's? SLED Rc3 is SuSE and, from what i understand, is based on OpenSuSE 10.

Here is what I installed:
Code:
a52dec-0.7.4-3.pm.1.i586.rpm Most of the packages are from packman. KMplayer is from guru's and libdvdnav I thing it was in the suse 10.1 dvd |
