[opensuse] oss 11.0 VLC not supporting mkv video
Folks, I notice the opensuse 11.0 release of VLC no longer plays mkv files. Are there any codecs that need to be installed now or does one need to install another player?

Barev Sergey, I checked that I had libmatroska installed and it was. VLC still will *not* play .mkv videos. I installed VLC on VB running XP and sure enough it played mkv files. Any idea what else to check for? Is the opensuse 11.0 repository deliberately lobotomized?

There are 2 versions of VLC, from VideoLan repository, and from packman. The one from VideoLan did not play matroska here as well, but the other one, from packman was OK. Please, report a bug with VideoLan for their build. Also, you can always use mplayer to play almost everything :) Cheers -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny) Even the most advanced equipment in the hands of the ignorant is just a pile of scrap. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
