Biji, Those are proprietary video formats, and distros can't release those codecs with their distributions for obvious patent reasons. But if you go here: http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/SuSE/10.3/ this repository has the codecs to run just about everything I've needed. -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Biju, Have you tried one-click-install feature for multimedia supports as mentioned at http://opensuse-community.org/Multimedia ? Best Regards, Vavai http://www.vavai.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

What video card to you have? I have an ATI radeon and just went through a horrible process of figuring out what was going on with video. Turns out that the Xorg xv extension for radeon is "buggy". Try this: xine -V xv <filenalme> It will probably give you the symptom you already have. then try xine -V xshm <filename> if that works its your xv extension same as me. xshm is reputedly slower and drops frames, but its all I got :) To make this change permanent edit $HOME/.xine/config so that this line is present: # video driver to use # { auto aadxr3 dxr3 xv XDirectFB opengl SyncFB caca xshm aa xxmc none sdl vidixfb vidix fb xvmc }, default: 0 video.driver:xshm cao... wcn Biju CP wrote:
