sound problem with quicktime videos on vlc

[photoworks]

I have Mandriva 2005 le and vlc 08.2-test1

 

when i play quicktime videos, there is no sound

 

does anyone experience this.

 

Another pb is when i play dvds, i have a shoppy dvd playback, once every minute.

Did you build it yourself? Make sure you had the faac-devel package (or some name like that) installed. Check the configure output for errors.

There is a working rpm version in PLF with all the plugins and codecs.

You have to have a particular codec. I just watched a Quicktime video file, VLC played sound where no other player could. I'm extremely happy that it plays on Linux, it's a valuable video to me.

That is where i got it from, rpm packages, from plf

well i installed the win32 codecs, but still it does not work

 

here is what i got in konsole when i try to play a quicktime format :

VLC media player 0.8.2-test1 Janus

[00000283] main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `QDM2'.

VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.

this is really strange :

 

i have installed vlc-0.8.2-0.test1.6mdk on mandriva LE 2005 this weekend and now when i play a dvd, the video and audio are choppy.

 

Another occurence, when i play quicktime videos, i have no sound (it happens with most of them, lets say 95 % of them)

 

Strange thing is that i can play some quicktime movies and i have the sound.

 

an example is this video (i have the sound though it is choppy) :

strangely, i can also play the quicktime videos from this site (sound is working fine) :
