There are some alternatives. 1. Open VLC, File > Open Disc > Disc Type VCD --- Advanced Options > Customize "change vcdx to vcd2" i.e. Customize will read like > vcd2:///dev/--- :audio-track=0. If you have more then one dvdrom/cdrom give the right address. VLC will then play the files but the voice may be distorted. If it works ok then you can make a custom command in file > properties > open with | so that when VCD is inserted VLC will autoplay with the custom command.
2. For mplayer. open terminal > mplayer ://vcd --- press 'F' for sullscreen. 3. Install gxine, which will play VCDs. 4.Install smplayer. Which is what i use and works perfectly. -- [totem-gstreamer] wont play vcd for "unknown reason" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/43589 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
