Hi all, I've listed this under the House Training - Bugs section, but had no response. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=63305 Perhaps someone here can help. I re-installed Lucid 5.1.1 Frugal the other week, but now have no multi-media programs working. Gnome Mplayer opens up, but won't play any audio or video files. VLC and Aqualung won't even open up. SMplayer starts, but I keep getting this message with all sound and video files regardless of format: "MPlayer has finished unexpectedly. Exit code: 127" The fact that nothing is working suggests to me there is a problem in my setup, not just with the software itself. But I'm not sure where to look. any suggestions will be gratefully received. I have discovered that PMusic and Pcd - CD Audio Player do work. But still none of the others. I ran the Alsa Sound Wizard, and heard the obligatory barks at the right time. I also have Quirky 1.00 installed. and everything works fine there. I have found that I am missing ffmpeg dependencies. Is that the issue? Here are some screen shots, to show what is missing, although I have d/l all ffmpeg things from PPM. The other screen shots compare shots from Lucid and Quirky when I type 'ffmpeg' into the console Lucid is using ICEwm, but had the same problem with JWM, so I don't think that's the problem. Any options or help would be great. Thanks (Changed the screenshots so they are correct now.)

I had cause tonight to use the live-cd tonight, and Mplayer seemed to work there. Why would that be? Can I re-install to make a change, and if I do how do I make sure that I don't lose anything that I have? _________________ Dell Latitude D630 running Puppy 5.2.8 frugal, Macpup 525 frugal (if I can get it working again) Precise Puppy 5.4 live DVD |

ffmpeg coders are obvious ubergeeks but a little krazy or something I think it generally works best for me building with default ./configure _________________ New! Puppy Linux Links Page |

Thanks for your comment Bruce, but I'm not sure what to do with it. I confess I'm one of those users who doesn't know what it means to build software or code etc. Is that what I need to do?

Me thinks you should try the Alsa Wizard. _________________ adobe flash is rubbish! My Quote:"Humans are stupid, though some are clever but stupid." http://www.dependent.de/media/audio/mp3/System_Syn_Heres_to_You.zip http://www.systemsyn.com/ |

Good thought. I had already given that a go, but thought I'd try again as suggested. Unfortunately no success. I get the bark sound, but can't play any files.

Went for a fresh install of Lucid 5.2 frugal. It's working nicely. Thanks for your help though. _________________ Dell Latitude D630 running Puppy 5.2.8 frugal, Macpup 525 frugal (if I can get it working again) Precise Puppy 5.4 live DVD |
