[Bug 210303] Re: [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed
On a previous installation of Hardy KDE3, via Live CD, Kaffeine worked fine. On my current installation of Hardy KDE, via The Same Live CD, Kaffeine refuses to use the installed libdvdcss2. Producing the following message: This DVD Video is encrypted. To be able to watch it you will need to install libdvdcss by running from a console: sudo /usr/share/doc/kaffeine/install-css.sh. In some countries it is illegal to install the decryption software without permission from the video copyright holder. The libdvdcss2 installed is the latest version from medibuntu repos... libxine1-ffmpeg is also installed. If I follow Kaffeine's suggestions, it installs an older version, neither work.

@Harald. It is strange, because opening the video file itself (avseq01.dat), all players play the VCD correctly. Till I get another VCD, I will assume that it is a bad VCD format. Anyway, kaffeine shows that same info codec already installed, and I agree that it is a usability error, since that info is wrong.

[Bug 210303] Re: [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed
Well, to be honest there is more usability tweaking to be done. The behaviour Aitor is experiencing is however intended. Currently the codec installer doesn't track whether it was executed already, if it installed packages successful or if it was already executed for the same file. Thus the only sensible and stable solution is to just assume that you try playing a file, if it can't be played back, kaffeine tries to install an appropriate codec and if it still can't be played back it just aborts. This approach also makes most sense when pushing updates to the list of installable package, otherwise one would need to introduce a lot more magic. In short, the SVCD just can't be played back, probably because it got some encryption. -- [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210303 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kaffeine in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Kaffeine is important because of its streaming protocol support (amongst other things) but this literally kills it rendering it unuseable for a lot of people. Please can we apply the fix and get it in the repos or whatever is required! -- [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210303 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 210303] Re: [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed
I've been redirected to this bug report as I submitted one earlier (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kaffeine/+bug/269359) with regard to this problem happening with .mov files. Further to my bug report, it seems that the problem is intermittent when it comes to .mov files. I downloaded a few more just to test the problem, and with one of the .mov files Kaffeine played without a problem. The same was true of another file that I downloaded, however upon clicking 'x' to close that particular instance of Kaffeine, the program would crash and give the backtrace error that I have provided as an attachment. I am a little baffled as to why the chances of playback should vary from file to file in spite of them all being the same file type. ** Attachment added: kaffeine.kcrash http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17554745/kaffeine.kcrash -- [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210303 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

However when trying to do apt-get install libxine-ffmpeg it is not there (yes I had the medibuntu repository enabled) Is it possible that this has created some unreported problems during an upgrade which later leads to all the codec installation neverendings? -- [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210303 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The same problem on fresh install of kubuntu 8.04.1 on Asus Eeepc 900 (kernel 2.6.24-20-eeepc).

However, usual .avi (xvid, mp3) from same share works well. And - important point - this is no such bug when I try to open the very same .mp4 being copied from samba share into the local drive.

For whatever it is worth. When I installed Kaffeine under Gnome, I had no such problem. Just as soon as I installed the Kubuntu Desktop, I started getting the endless codec loop. I hope this helps track down the problem. Also, I tried doing a complete uninstall (incl configuration files) of the Kubuntu Desktop and all the dependencies I could find of it. After going through the tedious process of uninstalling every KDE package I could think of, the problem persisted under Gnome.

POSSIBLE FIX: - You could try to delete or rename the ~/.xine folder located on your $HOME directory, that seems to fix the problem. Kaffeine should rebuild the configuration files to their defaults and be able of use the codecs installed on the system. It seems that this problem occur after an upgrade from earlier versions of *buntu, some packages don't properly update the xine configuration files and left them corrupted or incompatible with the new version.

I uninstalled Kaffeine and installed http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/k/kaffeine/kaffeine_0.8.6-2_i386.deb. The file could not be opened via Dolphin giving an error: 23:19:55: xine: cannot find input plugin for MRL [smb://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/share/file.mpg] 23:19:55: xine: input plugin cannot open MRL [smb://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/share/file.mpg] 23:19:55: xine: found input plugin : CIFS/SMB input plugin based on libsmbclient The same file could be opened via the Kaffeine menu (file - open ).

[Bug 210303] Re: [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed
I obtain the same issue with different video files, i attached a video showing what happens when opening the video. - Kaffeine starts to search for codecs (i installed all the codecs in gutsy - everything worked fine - but since i upgraded i can't see those videos) - It downloads them - It comes to know that they are already installed and prints an error - Clicking Ok makes previous steps to repeat over and over again. - Closing Kaffeine stops this loop http://www.youtube.com/v/X15UqBw4xyk I tried a $ffmpeg $VID_FILE0 $VID_FILE1 to see some relations and obtained an error about libavcodec. I switched to kde4 to see whether dragonplayer worked, it didn't. I then removed and re-installed libavcodec1d and all dependencies. I repeated both the ffmpeg and dragonplayer tests and they worked. I just tried with kaffeine and it worked, too. I think that the error was related to the upgrade of those libs. -- [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210303 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 210303] Re: [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed
On my Hardy upgrade I also got the 'Kaffiene installer loop'. But I also got another dialogue: xine Message - Kaffiene Player The source can't be read. Maybe you don't have enough rights for this, or source doesn't contain data (e.g: no disc in drive). (/dev/dvd) I found that the link for /dev/dvd did not exist, but the 'xine Engine Parameters' pointed to it. A link '/dev/dvd1' did exist, and pointing the 'xine Engine Parameters-media-Beginner Options-dvd.device' at it fixed both symptoms - 'the codec install loop' 'the can't be read'. Beware, you seem to need to click 'Apply' before leaving the xine Engine dialogue, otherwise the changes made are lost. -- [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210303 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to kaffeine in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
[Bug 210303] Re: [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed
I have a similar problem with the automatic codec installer (latest Hardy Kubuntu beta) I've had already installed all necessary medibuntu packages (libdvdcss2, w32-codecs). I inserted a DVD, and Kaffeine informs me that I have to install libdvdcss2. Strangely enough, it gives an advice that one version is already installed. No matter if I reinstall using the codec- installer or cancel, the DVD is not played. The same happens for AVI files I try to play. K. always want to install new codec, even though they are there. Seems it doesn't recognize medibuntu packages! -- [hardy] kaffeine loops on Codec package is already installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210303 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
