Hm :S I've been mistaken, MPlayer is installed by default too, but it don't appear in the GNOME-Menu, anyhow, while video is fine, there's no audio for the videos. My sound card is detected as hw:0, I set envy24 control. Audio settings for Totem seems to be fine. A lot of codecs are installed by default, even w64codecs, a package that often isn't installed by default. I installed libmpeg4ip-0 (1:1.6dfsg-0.2ubuntu1) libdvbpsi4 (0.1.5-3) libebml0 (0.7.7-3.1) libiso9660-5 (0.78.2+dfsg1-2ubuntu1) libmatroska0 (0.8.1-1) libvcdinfo0 (0.7.23-4ubuntu1) libvlc0 (0.8.6.release.e+x264svn20071224+faad2.6.1-0ubuntu3.2) libxosd2 (2.2.14-1.4) mpg123 (0.67-1) mpg123-alsa (0.67-1) oss-compat (0.0.4) vlc (0.8.6.release.e+x264svn20071224+faad2.6.1-0ubuntu3.2) vlc-nox (0.8.6.release.e+x264svn20071224+faad2.6.1-0ubuntu3.2) vlc-plugin-pulse (0.8.6.release.e+x264svn20071224+faad2.6.1-0ubuntu3.2)
and after I did this, audio for videos is fine. Now using VLC audio for videos is fine, maybe not for all videos. Now also audio is fine for Totem. I enabled the MPlayer Plugin for Firefox and audio is fine too, but there's no video. Resume: VLC and Totem seems to be fine, MPlayer isn't fine for videos. It would be good to have a non-official package, that will install needed stuff for multimedia material using proprietary codecs. After removing libmpeg4ip-0, mpg123 and mpg123-alsa, everything seems to be still fine ;). Installing VLC and dependencies, seems to be everything that's needed. It's always unpleasant to get multimedia players working for new installs of many distros and I guess a multimedia distro shouldn't be one of those distros. Maybe VLC can be default for 64 Studio, resp. maybe there can be a note, that recommend to install VLC or something like this.
