I'm trying to pay some MP4 files,. sadly a VLC upgrade and some other - ffmpeg? - upgrades seem to have broken most of my capability to play them
I have all these packages related to vlc:
cer@Telcontar:~> rpm -qa | grep -i vlc vlc-noX-lang-2.2.4-3.8.noarch vlc-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64 phonon-backend-vlc-0.9.0-3.2.x86_64 libvlccore7-2.1.5-239.2.x86_64 vlc-gnome-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64 npapi-vlc-2.2.0-1.1.x86_64 vlc-codecs-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64 libvlccore8-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64 vlc-qt-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64 vlc-noX-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64 libvlc5-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64 cer@Telcontar:~>
And they should all come from packman. I tried to concoct a line with xargs to find that out but failed:
rpm -qa | grep -i vlc | xargs -0 rpm -qi
Well that's easy enough
ZZ=" " for i in $(rpm -qa | grep -i vlc) do ZZ="$ZZ $i" done
Now you've got the whole list to play with.
Why I try to zypper in that list I get
Package 'libvlc5-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64' not found. Package 'libvlccore7-2.1.5-239.2.x86_64' not found. Package 'libvlccore8-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64' not found. Package 'vlc-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64' not found.

Package 'vlc-qt-2.2.4-3.7.x86_64' not found. Resolving package dependencies...
The following 2 NEW packages are going to be installed: npapi-vlc phonon-backend-vlc
After that i now get
# rpm -qa | grep -i vlc libvlc5-2.2.4-3.2.x86_64 libvlc6-3.0.0+git7892-1.8.x86_64 npapi-vlc-2.2.0-1.1.x86_64 vlc-qt-2.2.4-3.2.x86_64 vlc-gnome-2.2.4-3.2.x86_64 libvlccore9-3.0.0+git7892-1.8.x86_64 phonon-backend-vlc-0.9.0-3.2.x86_64 vlc-codecs-2.2.4-3.2.x86_64 vlc-noX-2.2.4-3.2.x86_64 vlc-2.2.4-3.2.x86_64 libvlccore8-2.2.4-3.2.x86_64
I'm of the opinion I don't need BOTh liblvc5 AND libvlc6 but
# zypper remove libvlc5-2.2.4-3.2.x86_64 Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... Resolving package dependencies...
The following 5 packages are going to be REMOVED: libvlc5 npapi-vlc phonon-backend-vlc vlc vlc-noX
But vlc6 alone doesn't require anything else to be removed.
* KMplayer comes up but doesn't start playing * kaffine comes up and runs into a segmentation fault immediately * QtAv comes up and reports 'no codec could be found for 'aac' * Dragon comes up but doesn't play * Xine flashes to the screen and dissapears * Mplayer produces audio but no video and no error messages * bangarang complain about the absence of a semantic desktop and eos nothing else.
Just a guess but seeing I don't have vlc(6) in any instance available for my tw, try removing all vlc(6) from your system. vlc(5) does fine for me, libvlc5. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
