Hi,

I used dragon player with phonon-backend-xine and it was working fine. However, since phonon-backend-xine had been deprecated in wheezy, I installed phonon-backend-gstreamer and removed phonon-backend-xine. The result is that dragon player is no longer able to play videos (mp4s), dragon player starts up and just shows blank square instead of the video. Tried the vlc backed with the same non-working result.

Any ideas? Thanks

$ aptitude show phonon-backend-gstreamer

It works fine here (wheezy, amd64) with the same version of dragonplayer, using phonon-backend-vlc.

Weird, I can't get it to work. Tried installing phonon-backend-vlc, it still doesn't work, purged phonon-backend-gstreamer, it still doesn't work, reinstalled phonon-backend-vlc, dragon player still doesn't work.

Not sure what to try next.

Have you got debian-multimedia.org in your sources list? If so, that
could possibly be the cause.
