I have installed DeVeDe, it runs fine, but the button preview and ok is disabled. Some says that the clip i am converting must be able to run in mplayer, witch is is not. How can i make it run in mplayer and in DeVeDe?

the format is mpeg-ts.

Not playable in MPlayer??

Yikes - that must be some weird clip. If you just run mplayer in a terminal on it, what does it report? Any specific error messages?

Do you have the full MPlayer codec pack installed?

If the video was playable in MPlayer, but DeVeDe still wouldn't work right with it, you might have been able to transcode it to some other format (with Mplayer's Mencoder) that DeVeDe might be able to work with. But if MPlayer doesn't play it in the first place, there's a good change mencoder won't be able to transcode it either.

Take a look at the Mencoder site, specifically the section that lists currently playable formats - if the format information reported by MPlayer when trying to "terminal play" matches a playable format on their website, it probably means you just have a codec problem somehow. If the format information reported by MPlayer when trying to "terminal play" matches an unplayable format, please reporting the file and its exact format readout so the MPlayer team can note that one and work on it in future.

it is some clips i have recorded with vlc player.
og have streamed a clip from the net and then in vlc choose to stream it to the disc. in the mpeg-ts format. What to do?

Ok, does the clip play in VLC at all?

MPEG-TS is well supported in MPlayer, it -should- play - if you have the codecs for MPlayer correctly installed.

Yes, the clip runs fine in VLC but no picture in mplayer, but the sound can be heard.

Hmm.. very strange. Can I prevail on you visit the mplayer site and notify them of this file so they can take a look at fixing support for it in future versions of Mplayer?

Regards,

i highly recommend TS to DVD converter it will come in very handy for all kind of video converting.

it is just drag, drop, and convert to and from just about everything video i can think of.
