I also had this bug - when I open a video file (like an avi or flv or mp4). However I found a solution on the ubuntu forums - I ran the following commands:
rm ~/.gstreamer-0.10/* This removed the Gstreamer settings for the current user. I then installed Gstreamer-Tools (check in synaptic to see if you already have it, if not install it - or run "sudo apt-get install gstreamer-tools" without quote marks). and then ran the gstreamer-tools command: gst-inspect to rebuild the gstreamer settings. This fixed playing the video layer for all these formats! I hope you find this useful. Matt -- When opening a Xvid avi file the Player suggest shearching for a codec that is missing to play the file, fails to find it, and... PLAYS the file without a proplet. Same this every time I open it. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453863 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
