GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 340098
GStreamer doesn't recognize a video file
Last modified: 2006-04-29 08:47:54 UTC
I have a video file 'Temperature.wmv' and GStreamer thinks it is an audio file. The file plays normally with MPlayer.
Sorry, the file is too big and I can't send it to you. I forgot to say that I don't use GStreamer directly; I use Totem. When I try to play it I get this: "** Message: don't know how to handle video/x-wmv, wmvvers ion=(int)3, framerate=(fraction)25/1, width=(int)320, height=(int)240, codec_dat a=(buffer)4a591a01"
This file contains wmv9 video (video/x-wmv, wmvversion=(int)3), for which you will need either the pitfdll plugins or the soon-to-be-released fluendo wmvdec plugins. pitfdll for gstreamer 0.10 doesn't have any releases yet, but you can grab it from cvs here : http://sourceforge.net/projects/pitfdll/ As for the fluendo plugins, you can subscribe to the beta plugins to try them out by sending a mail to Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller <christian fluendo com>.
