I have recently updated my Fedora 5 system and after that gxine ceased to= work.=20 It displayes a message box with the text: No demuxer found. Stream format= not=20 recognised. I checked the upgrade log and the only file which seemed to h= ave=20 with gxine to do was xine-lib.i386 1.1.2-17.fc5. The message box is displ= ayed in=20 what looks like a loop because it flickers a lot and after a while the sy= stem=20 freezes. I have tried to reinstall gxine but to no avail. What can the problem be and how can I further diagnose it? Any help is highly appreciated. --=20 Erik P.

Closing gxine's main window will avoid that (and it should only be X which is frozen). > I have tried to reinstall gxine but to no avail. The MPEG elementary stream demuxer is missing. You should report a bug against FC5's xine-lib via their bug tracker or, if they provide said demuxer in a separate package, report a bug against gxine via their bug tracker (dependency on that package). That said, gxine shouldn't be repeatedly trying to display its logo.mpv... you can point them at the following URL, which contains a fix: <URL:http://zap.tartarus.org/~ds/gxine/?cmd=changeset;node=2e7df586bbc1;style=gitweb> -- | Darren Salt | linux or ds at | nr.

One thing is reporting the bug which I'll do asap another thing is to get the missing demuxer into my system. Is it one or more files from xine-lib and how is it named? I have back-ups of the system from before the update but I am not sure what I should restore. The previous version of xine-lib was 1.1.2-2.fc5.rf What can I do to install the missing demuxer? > > That said, gxine shouldn't be repeatedly trying to display its logo.mpv... > you can point them at the following URL, which contains a fix: > > <URL:http://zap.tartarus.org/~ds/gxine/?cmd=changeset;node=2e7df586bbc1;style=gitweb> > |
