I've got a problem using compiz on Ubuntu 10.04 64bits with nvidia proprietary driver (195).
When I enable compiz, viewing videos is not fluid, there are jerks on video, and not append if I disable compiz. Is anyone got the same problem ?
Another problem I need help with.
I have been using Ubuntu on my laptop for a year now. I used to be able to watch any kind of video nicely. I even managed to read 720p video using xine or smplayer - which windows couldn't do! However for the last few days, I am not able to watch a normal definition video, straight avi xvid encoded file. The video is jumping and missing frames. I have tried with compiz enable and compiz not enabled, still the same. My system is all up to date.
Any deas where the problem could come from?
i want to be able to convert videos into mp4 videos of resolution 320*240 and frame rate 25ps so that i will be able to play them in my phone..any video converter that can do this job for me?

Randomly, one or two of the dozen or so videos on my SD card will work, but most will not. This is very frustrating because all the videos I download are always in AVI format.
I tried used the synaptic package manager find an alternative player and tried MPlayer, but that didn't do anything. I'd just get a blank screen on everything. Using the tutorial in this forum, I got GNOME Mplayer, which also didn't work, but even a video that worked with Totem would only play audio with GNOME Mplayer.
I looked in the repository for video codec updates but didn't see any. What do I do? Is there like a Winamp for Linux? This is a total bummer. I just want to play AVI files that are so commonly used for video.
I'm trying to find a program where I can edit some hd mkv files. I want to cut pieces of them out and put them together. I was using avidemux but when I went to save it again it said I needed the start point to be a keyframe. It allowed me to save it as an avi, but the color was distorted. I am fine with using avidemux if I can get around this keyframe problem.

On past Thursday i decided to install ubuntu on my laptop and i did it . It is light and healthy (ha ha). Any way, I would like to play AVI, MKV, RMVB, and MP4 videos but i couldn't. I tried a lot of debian packages and drives (i.e. files with .deb extension) but no result except installing RealPlay that i am using it to play mp3 files only.
can you give me some packages to play those files. (I can't connect my laptop to Internet for the time being). In addition, I have Huawei E1750 USB Modem but the system does not recogize it. Is there any way to play those videos and surf the net using the modem in UBUNTU 10.04 LTS.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to convert flv videos to MP4 so that I can load them onto my iPod Classic 160 G (video).
So far no program has successfully converted an flv file to a usable mp4.I've tried Avidemux (both gtk and qt), Kdenlive, WinFF, Mobile Media Converter, DownloadHelper (FireFox addon) Tragtor and of course the King of them all- FFMPEG. Not one of the previously mentioned programs has successfully and consistently converted an FLV to mp4 for my ipod.
It could be that I'm doing something wrong with FFMPEG or don't have the correct codecs (whatever the heck they are?!) installed or that I voted for McGovern in '68. The "help" from FFMPEG both IRC and their obnoxious email list is beyond deplorable.
Anyway, I need to know a reliable and consistent way to turn flv or any other videos into an MP4 format that will run on my iPod. The program must reside on my machine and not some online converter service. If I have to use FFMPEG (which I understand most programs use as their core) I need to know how to do it....and for God's sake don't tell me to read the online documentation at FFMPEG..
My Dad who I have just gotten on to Ubuntu is wanting to burn some some avi videos onto a DVD, but wants them in a DVD format though so that he can play them on any type of dvd player. I got him to install k3b and try that but as I've never had to do this I'm not sure my self how to do it so this leads me to ask;
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have some 10hrs videos with around 6GB in size. Unfortunately avidemux2_cli runs into problems copying certain parts of it into an output file (frames get blur).
So I tried ffmpeg, but even if I use the sameq switch (same quality as source video), the output video is not a 1:1 copy of the source video. In fact the output video is encoded again (and sound is not as in the source video) and that takes ages against a copy activity by avidemux. Is there any other cli program for simply copying parts out of videos?
I've got an eeepc 1101ha and have installed the latest ubuntu, 10.10, but i can't watch any videos! Besides the original player, i have installed and tried to watch videos in VLC, SMPlayer and GNOME MPlayer but it has always some kind of error. In VLC I can hear the sound. On all others the file simply doesn't work.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having a little problem with my flash player, the video plays fine but I can't get any sound. The sound card works properly with any other application, such as Amarok, but not with flash videos and my hardware is mostly Intel witch is linux-friendly from what I know, so I guess that it isn't a driver problem. Therefore, I switched from windows to linux only a couple days ago, so it may be a newbie issue as well.

I am trying to combine two videos into one file, so that I can have them playing side by side and in sync.Basically they are two angles of the same thing, and I want to be able to demonstrate both at once. The files are completely different formats right now (MPEG-2 and h.264), but I could convert them. Is there any way to do this, or a way I could have them both play in sync even if I can't combine them?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've seen posts with similar titles on these forums, but I know nothing about the plethora of codes out there and all those thread seem to be way over my head. I've installed ffmpeg (an unrestricted version) but I can't convert m4a audio files to mp3 audio files. I installed a package called 'libavcodec52' from synaptic because it came up in the search results for 'm4a' and its description said something about m4a and ffmpeg but still no luck..
