Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pitivi
Taken from the PiTiVi user manual: "Some GStreamer codecs, such as the Fluendo MP3 and MPEG muxers, while providing you with a legal way to playback files (in countries where software patents laws are upheld), may not be completely compliant to the GStreamer specifications. Some users have reported problems when using those codecs (read: not being able to import MP3 files when those codecs are installed). The reason for this behavior is that they are codecs oriented towards playback, and, being not entirely spec-compliant with GStreamer, cannot be used correctly by PiTiVi for editing. This situation is unfortunate. If, eventually, those codecs are fixed to become full-fledged GStreamer-compliant playback and editing codecs, they will work with PiTiVi. In countries where software patents are not upheld, you can simply remove them and use the GStreamer “ugly” set of plugins instead." There is nothing that PiTiVi can do on this front. ** Affects: pitivi (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Changed in: pitivi (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- Fluendo MP3 and MPEG codecs are not supported https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/503410 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
