The other plugins cannot be shipped in the Mandrake package for legal reasons. You have to download them yourself from http://plf.zarb.org > [root@localhost root]# aviplay > <AVI reader> : AVIStreamHeader: FccType=vids FccHandler=iv50 Flags=[ ] ^^^^ that's the fourcc. > <Codec keeper> : CreateVideoDecoder(): Unknown codec 0x30355649 = "IV50" There is no native IV50 codec for avifile. You have to use the windows dll (just install avifile-plugins-win32 of the same version as your avifile and win32-codecs, both on the plf site).
