The problem is that the dialog box is completely uninformative useless. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The error message is really, really bad. A big red x to me indicates simply that the program has a bug and has crashed. A message stating that the necessary codecs are not installed would be much preferable. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Further, it does not make sense for openSUSE devs to use their time to fix strings or these kind of not opensuse-specific bugs because they are not the maintainer of the application. Thus please next time report non-major problems that are not openSUSE-specific directly upstream at http://bugs.kde.org. http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:KDE#Report_at_bugzilla.novell.com_or_bugs.kde.or... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
