Bug#482831: no quicktime, no xvid, others?

[Harald Dunkel]

Package: vlc
Version: 0.8.6.e-2.3

Seems that vlc can't do some video output anymore. The changelog
doesn't mention anything in this direction, so I would expect
that this is not supposed to happen.

Here is a sample session:

% vlc x.mov
VLC media player 0.8.6e Janus
[00000550] skins2 interface: skin: VLC Media Player  author: JoeTheZombie
[00000741] main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `avc1'.
VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.
[00000546] main playlist: stopping playback
% vlc y.avi
VLC media player 0.8.6e Janus
[00000285] skins2 interface: skin: VLC Media Player  author: JoeTheZombie
[00000493] main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `XVID'.
VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.
[00000279] main playlist: stopping playback


Moving back to version 0.8.6.e-2.2 makes the problem go away.
