Hi folks,

I have some problems with audio-video codecs in Squeeze (same is on
other box with Sid).

It is .mov video (video codec: spm, audio codec: Qclp).
VLC: have audio but not video
Xine: have video but not audio [unsupported audio codec: Qualcomm
PureVoice (Qclp)]

ffplay have video and audio.

I can play without any problems .avi, .ogv or .mov with other codecs.

I would like to understand why VLC can't play video if Xine can and why
Xine can't play audio if VLC can and why ffplay can both?


Thanks for answers.

I also Have some problem with VLC. I installed vlc from debian-multimedia repository.
When I run video file it gives the following error.

main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `XVID'.


VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.

Audio files are playing perfectly.

I tried to solve this issue by googling itÂ* but no success .


And also sound from Debian very low. But with ubuntu its much more audible.





Can anybody help?

Thanks in advanced.

Do you have "libmimic0"?
libmimic is an open source video decoding library for decoding Mimic
V2.x-encoded content (fourCC: ML20), which is the encoding used by MSN
Messengerfor webcam conversations.


It is from debian repository.

There is some kind of conflict between some files installed by
debian-mulitmedia.org and VLC. I remember reading about it, but I can't
remember where.

I'm in the same situation as you. VLC will play many things (DVD isos,
mpegs, etc), but not stuff like wmv. The solution is to either:

1) remove the offending package from debian-mulitmedia, which will involve some
research (and you probably need it for another useful package)

or

2) use Mplayer for the stuff that VLC won't play. That's what I do.

I don't use Xine, so I can't comment on that.
