OK, I found some mpeg's that work. I can also take one of the "broken" ones and run it through ffmpeg with:
ffmpeg -i broken.mpg -acodec copy -vcodec copy fixed.mpg And the resulting file plays fine. The only obvious difference is that the (broken) original shows 0 (zero) audio channels whereas the (working) ffmpeg generated copy says it's stereo. Please notice that in the output in my previous comment from ffmpeg, it "sees" that the audio is stereo in the input file that shows as "0 channels" in Totem. Since a direct copy (acodec and vcodec) works, it would seem there's an issue interpreting some info from the mpeg encapsulation/header. -- Totem fails playing some mpeg videos https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
