Interesting, I found out that I had to purge remove all vlc packages from my system, apt-get --purge autoremove, and reinstall them all in order to upgrade to the latest and avoid the problem I posted earlier. I also found out I was missing the gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 for playing mpeg3. All is good now. Florian, for the volume issues try alsamixer from a shell and press "F6" to select a sound card and check the levels. Kmix doesn't show all these. -- Seb -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
