Hi all,
Has anyone been able to play an AVI file using VLC (with vlc-codecs) on Leap 42.1 and Tumbleweed?
There's not one AVI like the other one. It depends also on the contents. Please give an example, for instance from http://download.wavetlan.com/SVV/Media/HTTP/http-avi.htm ... I haven't tried them all, but http://download.wavetlan.com/SVV/Media/HTTP/H264/Talkinghead_Media/H264_test...
(H.264) and
http://download.wavetlan.com/SVV/Media/HTTP/AVI/AVIwithWMV/AVI_test2_WMV9SP_...
(WMV)
work for me in Tumbleweed with the latest update a few minutes ago (using VLC/ffmpeg from Packman).

Follow Up I found the problem. When I installed Leap 42.1 the 2nd day of release with phonon4qt5-backend-vlc. Clicking on Audio and Video always crashed the plasmashell. So I removed phonon4qt5-backend-vlc using zypper and forgot about it. VLC requires phonon4qt5-backend-vlc as the default for the codecs to work. I reinstalled it and it no longer crashes. Perhaps the recent update of the frameworks has fixed this problem and number of other instabilities. VLC now plays AVI files! :-) -- Cheers!
