Trouble? Contact > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > I've installed xine... installed the win32 codecs... but things are still not working. Well, that is to say, not all of the mpg's are working. According to the file prog, one mpg file is of the "MPEG system stream data" - this one is functioning allright. Another of type "Apple QuickTime movie file (moov)" with the extension .mpg won't function. Mplayer responds: -- Cache fill: 0.00% (0 bytes)QuickTime/MOV file format detected. -- MOV track #0: 1 chunks, 0 samples Generic track - not completly understood! (id: 0) -- MOV: longest streams: A: #-1 (0 samples) V: #-1 (0 samples) No stream found. -- What does this mean ? Mplayer still doesn't seem to know what to do with the file. Note that it's not just a problem with support for the "Apple QuickTime movie file (moov)" format, as files with a .mov extension and that type are working without a prob.

Re: hwto play .mpg files
I have succesfully used xine with standard installation (and also aviplay) to play divx4(and as far as I know divx5),mpeg, mpg. I have copied a windows dll for wma,wmv and played movies with soundtracks encoded with wma and video divx and wmf videos aswell.

hwto play .mpg files
Hello everybody, I've got this small question, I downloaded some mpg files but I don't seem to have the correct prog to run them. I've got mplayer, MPlayer 0.90rc4-2.95.4 but it can't run them. What program should I use for that? Thanks for any help, Joris Huizer __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
