Recently installed Ubuntu 10.04. Is there a definitive list somewhere of all the repositories and codecs I need to install to bring this distro up to speed with WinXP or Win7?
View 2 RepliesI am using Debian 5 . when I want to play some flv. mp3 etc file in totem player it says plugins are not installed .
how to install them in easy way .
why are they not installed out of box
I am trying to find a script or command or program out there that would scan a directory for a/v files and display the codecs they use.
For example, let's say i have 3 avi files, 1.avi, 2.avi, 3.avi. I want to be able to figure out what each of them contains for video and audio tracks.
I know ffmpeg -i will show me what I want, but how do i incorporate it to do an entire directory.
Kernel 2.6.21.5, slackware 12.0
Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.4
Seamonkey 1.1.2
Under any of Firefox or Seamonkey web browsers, if I type the URL about:plugins, a list of the installed (I assume they mean "installed in my machine") plugins appears. How do you do if you want to edit that list. Say, to disable a mime type or just delete it from the list?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI was playing around on my ibook g4 and thought I would try out Midori. I was pleasantly surprised to see it would allow an html5 applet to open on ...... Sadly, the video never begins playing, so I believe I must need to install the non-free codecs package...if it does indeed contain h.264.
I've used Ubuntu off and on over the years, so my knowledge of how to do a lot things is quite limited. I've been searching online for hours and can not find the information I need to install the non-free codecs...or just h.264 in general. I saw one post about adding medibuntu repositories, but the address relating to nonfree codecs for the ppc gives a 404 when it is going through the apt-get update in the terminal.
Found this [URL] supposed to be from the mplayer project. This seems to contain more codecs than in the codec32 package in medibuntu. I am wondering if this is safe to install.

I have an mkv file that I'm trying to player with mplayer, but no video is showing up. Mplayer was installed using apt-get install mplayer since ./configure when I try to build mplayer gives me a bunch of garbage:
Current branch master is up to date.
Detected operating system: Linux
Detected host architecture: i386

But, after installing mplayer using apt-get, I can't get any video for the file I'm trying to play. I've tried copying the files from "all-20110131.tar.bz2" to /usr/local/lib/codecs but I still don't even get a box for video. Everything works fine using the built in movie player--even the subtitles are shown correctly.
i have installed fedora 12 and i can not get VLC media player to read the DVD. i have installed the RPM repositories and the VLC player.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 x64. And some Wine games (e.g. Morrowind) require 32 bit gstreamer plugins to enable sound. How can I install 32 gstreamer plugins on my 64 bit Ubuntu?
On Fedora this is easy, you just need to explicitly provide the architecture:
Code:
yum install gstreamer-plugin-good.i686
I can't figure out how to do this in Ubuntu

View 1 Replies View RelatedI had just downloaded and installed Ubuntu. I had to manually install the Software Center. So I did that and installed a bunch of things including OpenJDK and its browser plugins. OpenJDK caused trouble in a game I play, so I installed Sun instead. However, that's the old version. I followed the above instructions, removed the old verisons and attempted to install the plugins. But unless I use the Software Center, it doesn't work. I'm cutting and pasting exactly and nothing shows up in my aboutlugin screen.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter a month or so on a WUBI install (Lucid Lynx 64bit) I decided to pass to a clean install to a dedicated partition and here I am, almost happy. I have installed 5* ( uninstalled & installed) gedit-plugins package by every means I know of (apt-get from terminal, ubuntu software center, synaptics) and I also have downloaded and unzipped the package to ~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins folder. But none of the plugins is working.
I don't know if it is relevant, but i noticed the following: on my wubi installation i had installed gedit-plugins with apt-get and it had installed in the ~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins folder. Now I find the contents of the package in /usr/lib/gedit-2/plugins and /usr/lib64/gedit-2/plugins. I don't know if it has anything to do with anything.
How do I get the Update manager to stop bugging me to install the flash plugins?
