Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kino
Kino uses ffmpeg to import AVI files (and probably for other things). If Kino is installed, but not ffmpeg, it will not be able to convert AVI files to DV. To reproduce: 1. Start with a fresh install of Ubuntu. 2. Install packages "kino" and "kinoplus". 3. Run kino FROM THE COMMAND LINE and keep the terminal window visible. 4. Attempt to open an AVI file (the ones I use are 320x240 created with a Canon PowerShot S2 1S). The import will fail and the terminal will display: >> Kino Common newFile >>> Received playlist to store at position 0 >>>> Adding to end /usr/share/kino/scripts/import/media.sh: line 24: ffmpeg: command not found 5. Install package "ffmpeg". 6. Try again to import the exact same file as in step 4. It will succeed. ** Affects: kino (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Package "kino" should require package "ffmpeg" https://launchpad.net/bugs/52480 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
