Xine does not play VCDs

RobertX · 12-28-2014, 02:47 AM

Out of frustration of not being able to watch multi-track VCDs with VLC, I uninstalled it and install xine-ui.

Upon loading one VCD through xine vcd:// in the terminal, the following messages presented itself; I hope it's sufficient enough to analyse the problem:

Code:

When I open the VCD through the GUI of the player, the player just disappears, so I thought I'd give you a verbose version through xine vcd://.

Thank you, in advance, for your help, and I hope I can use xine for years to come; it looks pretty good.

Have a look here. http://askubuntu.com/questions/40491...implementation
In your case you need to select the i915 driver.

Thanks for the reply.

After reading it, I tried once again, and was not successful.

I went to the "Video" tab and can't even find i915 on drivers.

But thanks anyway.

Well, forget about that.

I did try a second time to read the link, tried whatever I can, like setting the video driver and downloading other drives, and the terminal's output came out like this:

Anyone?

Again, you don't give any detail about what you are doing and not doing. What distro are you using? Have you installed the libxine2-codecs package (or whatever it's called in your distro). Is the i915 driver functioning correctly? Have you done a search for the libvdpau_i915.s0 file on your system? For example, I use the radeon driver and a search gives me this:

Code:

~$ locate libvdpau_radeon
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/vdpau/libvdpau_radeonsi.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/vdpau/libvdpau_radeonsi.so.1
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/vdpau/libvdpau_radeonsi.so.1.0
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/vdpau/libvdpau_radeonsi.so.1.0.0

When running vlc from a terminal I get this message:

Code:

[00007f3c3d1c1478] avcodec decoder: Using G3DVL VDPAU Driver Shared Library version 1.0 for hardware decoding.

So do you have all the avcodec packages installed? libavcodec54, libavcodec55, libavcodec56?

The vdpau error is not signifcantas vdpau is used for video acceleration.

You should try mplayer

Tracks are accessed with:

Code:

mplayer vcd://1
mplayer vcd://2

May be the also VCD is damaged.
