I can't open sopcast, I guess it's because of the conflict with the newer versions of VLC...
I tried to uninstall vlc, sopcast, to install only sopcast, but I noticed it automatically installs also vlc...in other words, didn't find any solution by myself nor on the web.
I use Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. Sopcast player used to work properly, but from yesterday it does not open at all. It doesnt open when I click a link or even when I try to open from the menu.
I have recently installed the Sopcast player and it works great most of the time. Occasionally a channel will have video but no sound. I have tried running the URL in VLC player and that doesn't work for me so I'm wondering if it is the channel or if I'm doing something wrong. Specifically, NDSportsTalk has no sound.
I am tried to install Sopcast for Ubuntu Netbook remix but keep being told I have broken packages but I can't find any in synaptic or ubuntu tweak. I think I had a failed install before I found the frontend package on ubuntu tweak but I cannot find where the problem is.
I am running ubuntu on an Acer Aspire One as my sole operating system.
from the Ubuntu PPA to the Mepis 8.5 community repo, and it works a treat. It would also be installable in Debian Lenny and higher, as long as you have VLC >= 0.9.4 for the built-in player (which is backported for Lenny in another post I had here) I also ported over the nonfree sp-auth deb package which it requires, only for Intel-base 32 and 64 bit CPUs (it's a 32 bit static binary that does the actual P2P). I could roll a Lenny specific package which does not use VLC if you tell it to use an external player such a mplayer or xine; is anyone interested?
It features a built-in player and a channel guide with the ability to bookmark favorite channels. Currently the only available language is English, but I'm working with a few people to try and bring support for Japanese and Chinese as well. Let me know what needs improvement, and please, be honest. [URL] btw. Be sure to read the Installation notes on the website before you install.
When I open an open office document from an NFS share it always opens as readonly. This was a problem I had on Arch linux and the fix was to change the locking options in the soffice script but I've tried that fix here and it doesn't work. I've seen a lot of discussions but they all go back to changing the locking options in soffice, has anyone got any alternative fixes or one that definitely works with locking?
I installed Open Office 4 on Debian 8 but when I run the program I get this error message.
root@localhost:/home/paul# openoffice4 No protocol specified No protocol specified /opt/openoffice4/program/soffice.bin X11 error: Can't open display: Set DISPLAY environment variable, use -display option or check permissions of your X-Server (See "man X" resp. "man xhost" for details)
Open Office works fine when I run the command "startx" in the Konsole but so far I haven't been able to configure it.
My sister can't open CDs on her laptop, I made sure to install ubuntu-restricted-extras on her computer and she can open DVDs and data disks. The files burnt to the disk are .wav, and we've tried using vlc, rhythmbox, and tried to open the disk in nautilus, but no success. Does anybody know what's wrong?
Want to record an Internet radio broadcast. If I go to the relevant website and click on the streaming option, I get a box that offers me a choice of programs with which to open the stream. Right now it only has "Movie Player (default)" from which to choose.
If I click "other" then I have to tell the program where the VLC media player executable file is located.
I can't seem to get my videos to open with VLC automatically. They open with the built in movie player, but I don't want that. I have VLC installed, but each time I have to right click on the file and go to Open With.
To get to the point, when viewing a video in fullscreen, I notice that the initial VLC window remains open under the fullscreen video output. Sometimes the initial video window is under the fullscreen output causes a bit of screen tearing. How do I enable VLC that when in fullscreen mode, only it opens, to be together with the main interface instead of two windows running? Im not sure that im making sense but this does not happen in Windows. I want a similar function here in Ubuntu.
what happened was i came across the meego interface for Banshee and thought i would install the unstable version of Banshee to check it out. I noticed after doing this that Guayadeque wouldn't open up for me so i uninstalled the package from synaptic package manager and reinstalled the stable version of Banshee from Ubuntu Tweak. I thought this would sort out the problem but after restarting no joy at all. Anyone know what i could have done to prevent it from opening up?
I recently upgraded to 10.10 and installed ktorrent at the same time. After the upgrade whenever I try to open up and file or folder for that matter totem tries to open them. Totem is acting like the default app for all the files on my computer. I tried uninstalling an reinstalling both totem and ktorrent and I still have the same problem.
Somehow and I'm not sure how. But opengl apps will completely hang Ubuntu 10.10 x64.This is my 2nd fresh install. I'm using the latest nvidia driver for my asus gtx460 (260.19.12)Have already verified rendering is enabled, uninstalled nouveau & blacklisted, mesa glx is installed, no errors (that I can see), etc.When I run apps, even a gl screensaver, it will hang my whole box. To the point where I can't even, ctrl + alt + F1 (or F2, F3), for cli. So no command line output. And I've tested this in World of Padman, Alien Arena, Call of Duty 4 (under Wine), even Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Apps will start, but any gl content will quickly hang.This is the first time running ubuntu x64, and a new box

Doesn't seem as straightforward in KDE, but I'd like to put my dvd's in and have VLC start them, i.e. open them to their features' menu automatically as I could in Gnome Can anyone describe me the steps clearly if this can be done?When I put a dvd in so far I get the right-hand options slide up in a box which mentions Dragon Player and K3b and so on. Dragon Player sems to get stuck if you accidentally hit the touchpad in the wrong place during a film, so I'd rather keep away from it
Eye of Gnome aka EOG does not open some jpgs, here's what happens.
With some jpgs only, most work fine!!
If you open one of the problematic jpg files by clicking on the jpg in Nautilus, EOG never fully opens, the process starts but the application's window does not get displayed - I then kill the process with kill -9 PID.
The same jpg opens in other viewers, EG. FSpot and OO Draw on Linux, and IrfanView on Windows.
If you start EOG from the App menu or the command line and drag a problematic jpg to it, the jpg is also not displayed, nothing happens. BUT if you start EOG with a working jpg and, once that is being shown, drag a problematic jpg from Nautilus to EOG's window then now the problematic jpg is displayed.
PS. Anyone know if there is an Eye of GNOME 2.32 (latest stable) deb package which I can download or if I can install EOG 2.32 from some other repositories? Aptitude and Synaptic have only v. 2.30.
I burned a bunch of files months ago on DATA dvds to keep copies just incase my external died, so i wanted to grab a few files, and the CD won't show up.
Some of them work, some dont, all were tested and confirmed to be working when i burned them a while back using Windows 7 and some where made using Vista
