Package: vlc
Version: 0.8.6.e-2.3+lenny1
I discovered this problem with a patched version of kaffine-mozilla
and the movies available from <URL:http://www.filmarkivet.no/open/>.
Kaffine is unable to play the movies. After using kaffine-mozilla to
locate the movie URL, I tested it in vlc too. It fail. :(
To replicate the issue, call vlc like this:
vlc 'rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_40648.mp4'
It print this message and play only the sound:
VLC media player 0.8.6e Janus
[00000295] main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `h264'.
VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.
[00000273] main playlist: stopping playback
Please get this video working with vlc.
Happy hacking,
