General :: Install A Win32 Codec To Play Wmv Files
Mar 18, 2011
I need help installing programs again because I am trying to install a win32 codec to play wmv files. I am completely new to linux and I guess I'm fucking up my system because now I can't install anything. Here is the error messages I receive when I try to download Banshee This is a major failure of your software management system. Please check for broken packages with synaptic, check the file permissions and correctness of the file '/etc/apt/sources.list' and reload the software information with: 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get install -f'. The sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install -f have errors when I enter them as follows
I used vlc to play some videos, than I was playing with programs and I install ffmpeg and kino. Now vlc doesn't play avi files with the motion jpec codec. All that I see now is a green screen and I can hear the audio. Everything else is fine, I can play those videos with Movie Player. I'm using debian squeeze.
I am using Lucid lynx and trying to play a video files with 300++ megs on it but only shows 21 seconds.. and a writing in the screen Codec Error : Use windows media player
I can play all files and already download the ubuntu restriced format .. But why can't i play this one ? Really liked the movie tough ..
I want to play M4A, ive downloaded gstreamer, and installed, it said i needed gstreamer multiverse, so i began to get that but then it said
Processing triggers for man-db ...Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/liblame0_3.96.1-1_i386.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I cant use -f install or -f upgrade or -f update or anything, this is what i get when i use -f install
I have downloaded a movie (avi) file via utorrent. Download has been complete. On trying to play the movie via VLC and Divx, what comes up is ' Codec is missing please download and install from [URL]. on going on this site i get what looks like an analysis. on reading it i see highlighted in the category SOA the information says SOA Expire 5 weeks..How do I update this or even what file exactly should I look for when uploading a movie via torrent..
Here's a plugin that lets VLC from wheezy-backports play h.265 content. I packaged it for the MEPIS 12 repo, but it should work on wheezy. [URL] ....
Or create your own packages against Debian's stock VLC 2.0.3, that might work.
You need to install the libde265 package first, then the plugin package.
You can use the static ffmpeg binaries from ffmpeg.org to encode to that h.265 (hevc) codec, but it will take quite a while.
Code: Select all./ffmpeg -i [inputfile] -vcodec hevc [outputfile] Try mp4 or mkv for the output file extension.
The good news is that it will create video of the same quality that is half the size of a comparable h.264 file. This is handy for putting movies on space-limited storage, such as on a phone or tablet. I do know that MX Player on Android can play h.265 video.
I installed Fedora 10 on a Toshiba Laptop, where I had been successfully running Ubuntu for over a year. The newest iteration of Ubuntu was giving me problems, and the press was saying that Fedora 10 was pretty good, so I tried it.
Fedora 10 froze after any application was loaded. I couldnt correct it. I installed Fedora 9, and am no longer having that problem. However, I cant run any multimedia items on the computer. Particularly videos, including wmv, mpeg, or rm formats. This was not a problem in Ubuntu. I can't find any player or codec that will allow me to play these videos on Fedora 9. Can anyone suggest a solution for this?
installed opensuse 11.3 and i love it but i dont seem to be able to watch and play films/songs and when i try to install the codecs through one klic the warning "could not access installation media [URL] (medium 1) check whether the directory is accessible"
For purposes like compiling GCC from source and being able to do a "profiledbootstrap", I need to be able to use the stage1 compiler (Windows executable) on from Linux. What would be ideal: some setting/command that lets me do gcc.exe from bash and have it work (load WINE automatically). What would be less than ideal but equally fine: tell the GCC build system to call the bootstrap compilers through WINE (ie prepend "wine " to all call to win32 applications).
I wrote a short story about using computers using Open Office. I saved a copy to my usb drive. When I tried to open it again it was all garbled code. One line of text said: must run under Win32. I can't find Win32 and I cant read my story now. How do I run this thing in Win 32? What does that mean? Do I open Win32 first then Open Office. Or the other way around. Anybody out there know? eeepc900 xandros
I want to listen to this audio file: [URL] but my real player 11.0.0.4028 gold desn play it, it says that there is a codec 28_8 missing, I go to relaplayer page, download the last release available for linux systems, but the message is the same : audio codec missing and doesn't play the audio.
I havev tried to play the audio with smplayer (not luck), vlc can play the audio but the pause button doesn't work so I have to listen the entire audio all the time I stop it playing. Is there any audio player capable od reproducing in the proper way this audio in ubuntu? No one of my video players totem, smplayer, realplayer or vlc are capable of playing this video: [URL]
I want to move entirely from windows to linux. My college has ubuntu running on the labs. But i have a thing fr Fedora. I want to install fedora & run win32 apps via wine. But just in case some apps need strictly windoze i was wondering about using BART PE as a minimal windows application use. Does BARTPE run all win32 apps like CAD, dialup client, burn iso, install on a small harddisk,boot up with linux?
I am new to Ubuntu. I have moved on from Windows and I find Ubuntu really cool. Have been checking out free softwares and I got this VLC player to play videos on my Ubuntu. But when In try to play online .wmv files, it says The Plugin is Missing! I usually watch TV online but its not working. How can I get it working, I'd like to have an easy solution to this so that I don't mess up with Ubuntu.
I need to play or preferably convert (i.e. to MP3) old SNG files, which contain voice records. From what I could find, it's basically a MIDI created by synthetiser. I think it was recorded by some ancient VLC player. I failed so far to play it on anything I could download.
Im using spotify for Linux Preview, importing of local files is working now, but i can not play them.I get this error message:"There is a problem with the sound decoder. Spotify can't play music" Soo... what codec am i missing?I can play those mp3-files in other programs(Totem, Rhytmbox) with no problems at all.
i just finish doing a fresh install of F14 and i have problem with video playback. I have added rpmfusion free and non free as describe in [URL] also Nautilus do not show thumbnail from video files.
[bamf@bamf ~]$ su -c 'yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/...ble.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfr...ble.noarch.rpm' Password: Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit Adding en_US to language list
[code]....
note: i have vlc, smplayer and ffmpegthumbnailer installed on the system but still no video thumbnails in Nautilus.
when i try to mount the ISO (it's a Live CD) onto my emulated DVD Drive it doesn't seem to work. The only thing that happens is that the auto play dialog box comes up saying view files and folders and i tried everything and nothing seems to work. I am currently on Windows 7 Home Premium and have an External Hard Drive
I normally tried yum lock for installing players like yum install xmms xmms-mp3 but it starts and when primary.sqlite.bz2 starts download it stops after sometime & try another mirror & finally never install what is the problem?
I have a fresh install of Karmic and get the occasional skipping when I play files through amarok.If a play a CD through Rythmbox the sound is ok, so I don't think its got anything to do with pulseaudio. Could it be the xine backend?
When i open media files as mp3 and video files avi, the player could not find the required plugins. It keeps on searching but at last no plugins are downloaded?
