I've just installed a nas on my system. All is ok apart from Kaffeine. It will play the file from the home dir, a usb disc but not for some reason the same file over the network located on a nas. It come up with the following error message:
The connection was configured as a MS Windoze network drive.via dolphin. No problems with compressed,pdf or doc files or copying etc just playing an avi with kaffeine.
I need plug-ins to enable Kaffeine to access and play my DVDs. Where and how do I fins such plug-ins?

When I click (single click) on one channel of the channel list the above error message is seen.
I terminate Kaffeine and start ME TV.
ME TV works. I terminate ME TV and restart Kaffeine.Now Kaffeine is working correctly.
It seems that Kaffeine has a problem with initializing.ME TV is initializing something what Kaffeine does not initialize.
I have installed the Wubi version of Ubuntu 10.04 on my Dell 1537 Studio laptop. Additionally, I have installed the GDK plug ins for .MP3 file support. When the installation completed, there was a message indicating the installation was successful, but it was unable to install one plug in. I am able to play .MP3's, but I can not add them to an audio disk project in Brasero. When I have Brasero do a search for the missing software, it can not find what it needs.

Trying to play dvd that worked under 11.1 and original dvd version of openSUSE 11.2. It failed after a update.
Not sure which one since I do not normally play dvd movies on my system.
Checked all multimedia rpms and they are all from packman except kaffeine which is KDE4 version.
but after a forum search I only found one similar thread, but seemingly the issue was not totally solved. I just would like to suggest a solution (well, most likely a workaround) for .rmvb Real Player movies which don't work well on Kaffeine, without need to install other players or applications.I first saw many people had similar problems as me: Real Player movies just played sound but not video, or viceversa. I first tried installing w32 codecs, but this seems to be the good solution for 32 bit users, I use 11.3 x64 and didn't work for me. After some Google search I came to this page:Index of /pool/non-free/w/w64codecs/
Seems to be a Medibuntu repository, and I looked for a .tar file, since I was looking for a "w64" version of the codecs. I downloaded the latest .tar.gz file found on the page, the 20071007 one and uncompressed it. It has some codec files and a Readme which tells where to put the files. After that done, without rebooting Suse, I tried again to play the movie, and Kaffeine finally played it well, although now it pops a message saying Kaffeine closed unproperly whenever I close it after having played a .rmvb movie. I think that can be solved by updating Kaffeine, but haven't tried that yet
I tried playing some rmvb videos. I can hear the audio but there is no audio. I followed a few theads related to this but it still hasn't fixed my problem.
One thread says all related packages must be from packman. I have this currently
Code:
mvalviar@mac-mac:~/Desktop> rpm -q kaffeine libxine1 libffmpeg0 w32codec-all xvid libquicktime0

I have just installed openSuse 11.2 (64bit), and I installed the avi codecs as described in Restricted Formats/11.2 - openSUSE-Community with the 1-click installation for KDE. But kaffeine and xine are crashing when I try to play avi files.One thing I found out is that all packages are 64 bit packages only the w32codec-all version is 20071007-0.pm.1.1-i586 and I don't get offered a _64 package. Is this OK? What else could be the problem
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using openSUSE 11.3 for my laptop and Kaffeine built in as my player. But when I tried to play any files with external subtitles, there is nothing happened. The drop-down list of subtitles is just gray and cannot be used.
So I have two questions:
(1) Can Kaffeine built in openSUSE 11.3 load subtitles automatically?
(2) If it cannot, how to load subtitles manually?
I've been away from Linux for a while, so I need to get informed about some of the 32- vs. 64-bit issues concerning video players and codecs. So, what is everyone using these days?
More specifically, is it possible to play, e.g., .wmv files with 64-bit Kaffeine (my favorite player) or any other 64-bit video player? If so, then which combination of player and codec should I use?
After having installed Kaffeine on Ubuntu to use for watching Terrestrial Digital TV through my tv-tuner, on Lucid, Ubuntu 10.04.
After installing Kaffeine and the proprietary driver and firmware for the card, starting Kaffeine gave me the following error;
"kaffeine cannot find demux plugin for MRL"
I found this problem difficult to find a solution for; but did eventually find mention of a set of plugins which would provide what Kaffeine needs;
libxine1-all-plugins
This was originally mentioned at old nabble: [url]
I installed this, along with all the Medibuntu plugins (just to make sure) and my Kaffeine then worked without troubles.
Basically, I think if i'd originally installed according to the instructions found at the Kaffeine community website: [url] i'd have had no troubles. However, I must say I expected all dependencies to be met simply through the apt-get install process. Not so for the plugins of course, as I should have known.
my favourite media player is Kaffeine. One reason is, that no other application has better support for DVB-T including channel tuner. Version 1.0-pre2 from SBo works great, with one limitation, though: Scheduled recording doesn't work. When I open the programme guide and select a programme to be recorded, Kaffeine reports that the recording has been scheduled. Then, at the scheduled start time, a zero byte file with the name of the programme is created, but it remains empty forever. Instant recording, on the other hand, works just fine. I am on Slackware64-current with all updates up to now.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAbout a month ago I got the usual "time to update your plugins" and was redirected to adobes webpage. However, the plugin it offered me was incompatible with my build, an AMD Turion 64 X2. I tried downloading some other Macromedia Flash Plug-ins from synaptic and none of them have worked. Since then I've been using vista primarily. I enjoy using ubuntu alot more, especially with all the work I put into my desktop and getting compiz the way I wanted it, but if I can't stream videos then there's simply no reason for me to use ubuntu. I don't have to go back to vista.

It seems I can play at least an mpeg movie, and mp3. But I find the quality of sound of the mp3 in kaffeine very poor. Yes, it plays, but some mp3's are struggling the first 10 seconds or so,, eg, Shivers - Armin van Buuren. When I play the same mp3 in xmms, it plays like a charm. That's not what I want, I want an all-round multimedia player. Xine does the job very well,, like xmms,, and plays also the mpeg, but unfortunately, xine shows an error message about a segmentation fault, upon exiting xine. Any hint to play mp3 files in kaffeine like xmms does?
I want to play a Quicktime stream and can't figure it out. When I try to play it either in Firefox or Movie Player, it says I need a text/html decoder plugin, but doesn't find one from the autosearch. Downloaded Ubuntu Restricted Extras from the Software Center, but no luck (don't know if I'm supposed to "do" something after that). MPlayer doesn't work on my computer, and I've also downloaded Avidemux, thinking maybe I'd get the right codec or plugin, but again, no luck. I am on Ubuntu 10.04 on an Eee PC, if it makes a diff.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm running Kaffeine on openSUSE 11.2. (The version of Kaffeine is whatever was included in that distribution.)
I noticed Kaffeine does not play wmv files. An "error" message appears with no details when I try to play one.
So I followed the instructions in the Kaffeine FAQ on how to add support for wmv: It's supposed to be a simple matter of downloading the win32 codecs and extracting to /usr/lib/win32 (see FAQ | Kaffeine - KDE Media Player).
Still doesn't work. I tried extracting the codecs to usr/local/lib/win32 (this folder is mentioned in codecs README as another possible location).
I'm running uShare on my Linux 10.4.2 box to stream videos from my computer to my Xbox via Wifi. As the Xbox360 can only handle AVI files I'm trying to write a script that traverses through all my media at;
/media/Media/
Looking for AVI's and then linking to them symbolically into a directory called;
/media/Media/Xbox360/
I plan to set the script up as a cron job so it will constantly keep up to date. This is the script so far;
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#Searches through media drive to find .avi files and symbolicly links them to Xbox360 ushare folder
cd /media/Media/
files=$(find . -type f -iname *.avi -exec echo '{}' +)
[code]....
and the only file being created is .DS_Store, I think. One other caveat I've not yet been able to get my head round, is that from time to time I'll convert videos from say MKV using mencoder to AVI's and plonk them in the /media/Media/Xbox360 folder, and so when the script traverses all my media folders I need to get it to not link to files that are already in that /media/Media/Xbox360 folder.
I had a look at No TV in Kaffeine, but I'm lost. I have an HDTV wonder card. I have installed dvb, ffmpeg, w32-codecs, etc. I am able to watch video/hear audio.

I had XP before, which gave me an error message and crashed. I didn't have the XP CD so I decided to give Linux an error. By what i can find, I have a somewhat unique problem. My USB drives no longer work. They light up green, so they obviously have some power and so on, but there is no response from any devices that you plug in, i.e. mouse, flash drives, etc. Nothing works.

What it all means in very simple English and what an ignoramus can do to put it right? I should perhaps explain that although I have been using SuSE since version 9 I am totally incapable of understanding terminal work. I have so far managed, to a large extent, by trial and error but it seems that as versions get better it gets more and more difficult to fix problems. The help provided by OpenSUSE is very good but as one gets older it gets more and more difficult to remember instructions so that they can be followed - you need two pc's one being fixed and a working one to provide the instuctions side by side!
After wrestling with Kaffeine on openSUSE 11.2, I thought I had solve the issue I had with it and I got a new error as described below:
