Ubuntu Multimedia :: Find And Unistall Default Encoder For Totem
Nov 17, 2010
I tried to play a mpg file on a clean ubuntu 10.4 system which I guess laundhed totem movie player....it asked to me to download and install some packages which I accepted but unfortunately the quality of the movie isnt good (very black and red for all colors)...I want to un-install what I accepted previously and install the extended extra package found here:URl...
and hopefully that will set this as my default encoders and work better....however I dont know what I installed previously.does someone know what it was and how to un-install it?If there is another decoder anyone recommends for playing movies that would help as I am still at this point not sure the restricted-extras will fix my video.

the dialog for "open with other application" is broken in that you cannot use 'remember this application for "AVI Video" files'. they always open with Totem. while totem is very capable, it lags at times and sometimes loses the stream if the lag is too long, while smplayer is not as finicky. besides, smplayer has more options that i require.i wish dearly to be able to double click an avi/mkv/etc video file and have it open in smplayer. are there instructions somewhere to do this? i have searched extensively, but there are too many threads that are similar that don't answer my question.

I am trying to rip some home made sound tracks recorded onto CD using kaudiocreator. I am not infringing any copyright in doing this.It goes through ripping then encoding process but fails with'the selected encoder was not found'I am trying to get the sounds from a cd onto my mp3 player, so using mp3 as the chosen encoder. Do I have to use MP3 or can I use another encoder to do this job? I tried ogg vorbis but it failed with the same error.

I've got a bunch of wmv files that I'd like to re-encode to avi - about 50 of them. Is there a straightforward GUI application that does the same thing as Sound Converter does with audio files? As in, add a folder full of files, select the output format and output filename/folder, click "convert", and come back a few hours later.
Yes I know I can convert video files with mencoder and ffmpeg, but doing it file by file at the command line means I can't leave it running overnight or something.
I found something called Arista but the only output options are designed for specific hardware, ie. iPods and PSPs. I just want to convert the wmv's to avi's, not mess around with resolution etc. Also, with Arista you still need to add the files one at a time.

As K3b is the standard ripper I suppose it must be possible rip an audio cd to flac? In the plugin menu I see that the flac decoder is installed but not the encoder. Did someone already succeeded in installing the flac encoder plugin?
FYI: With virtual folders I am able to copy from the flac directory. It works to encode with flac like this but I experience the last seconds of the song are gone...

I want to be able to rip videos off ..... and put them on my ipod. I added installed "Download helper" which enables me to rip the videos off ..... in a flv format. When I try and convert the files to .mp4a (using the WinFF GUI) my terminal pops up and says "unknown encoder 'libx264'"
Here is the full message:

I installed the MOTU ffmpeg and libav ppa in Natty beta, the installation went through ok and media players all work. But I am having problems converting MP4 to MP3 (extracting audio) with the error message that libmp3lame unknown encoder. I checked that lame and libmp3lame0 are both installed. I wonder what might have been the missing piece.

When I was playing a movie with totem, a message would come out to ask me whether to search the plugin "GStreamer element deinterlace", but it can't find this plugin. when I choose to close the message, the movie can be played normally.

I have a desktop hooked up to a router and plugged into my TV. I like to run Totem and have videos running full screen on my TV. I would like to control that Totem using my laptop (connected to the same router over wifi). How would I go about doing that? I connected to my desktop using SSH and tried to send signals to Totem, but nothing worked. I tried using VNC, and that was ineffective as well.

I installed my DVB-T board and I can watch TV using VLC and my channels.conf file. I saved a copy of channels.conf as ~/.gstreamer-0.10/dvb-channels.conf but when I start Totem (GStreamer ed.), I don't see a "Watch TV" option under the "Movie" menu.

Whenever I'm playing a video in Totem, if I use the navigation bar thing to go to a different time in the video, the video output freezes. Audio continues, but video stops. If I pause the video first, then use the navigation thing, then click play again, it works fine. Same happens for music; the visualizer freezes if I drag the navigation thing.
Edit: If I put it on repeat, when the video or music repeats the video output freezes also.

I was able to watch videos that had h.264, but now I can't. when I play the same video from before, it tells me I don't have the codec installed, but when I try to have it installed:
"No packages with the requested plugins found"
is it something I'm missing in the repository?

So there's just one DVD (Narnia) that won't play on my Ubuntu machine using Totem: other DVDs play (I've installed libdvdread4 and libdvdcss2 like a good boy) and non-pulseaudio players like VLC play it properly. If I completely remove and kill pulseaudio, it plays in totem fine. It gets to the language selection screen and I select English, but as soon as any sound is involved it doesn't play. Clicking Go --> DVD menu causes Totem to hang. I don't want to be uninstalling pulseaudio, and VLC player is a bit complex for the mother.
The output of totem:
Code:
marcus@margit-laptop:~$ totem
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.10 for DVD access
libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 4.1.3
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.10 for DVD access
libdvdnav: DVD Title:
libdvdnav: DVD Serial Number: 43D1F9FE (GEAR):
libdvdnav: DVD Title (Alternative):
libdvdnav: Unable to find map file '/home/marcus/.dvdnav/.map' .....
marcus@margit-laptop:~$
Note that before the last line, Totem does absolutely nothing. It just sits their. Like it's trying to devour my soul or something.

I've made it my new years resolution to sort out my video collection
I know totem can create a png montage with the frames of a video, however, I've only been able to create one at a time. If i told you i have 621 videos to deal with, you can understand why im asking this question.
Is there anyway in which i can script this, so i can can do the entire directory, name the png the title of the film while my pc is doing nothing?, I've looked at the "man" for totem, and there doesnt seem to be anything in there.
Or alternatively, suggest alternate software, which can do the whole thing without scripting?! I've already looked at GframeCapture, but that doesn't do it also.

My partner is a teacher and has downloaded some videos from a teacher's resource site but can't seem to play them in Ubuntu. They play fine in Windows XP using Windows Media Player but they only play a few seconds in VLC or Totem and then freeze. The files in question seem to be normal MPG (MPEG-1) video files but somehow VLC and Totem choke on them. I have installed all restricted video formats including w32codecs but still no joy. My partner is threatening to go back to Windows!
