Hi,

For some reason VLC player refuses to play video files. It starts up, shows the 
first frame of the video but doesn't play it further. What's strange, KDE 
DragonPlayer plays the same videos fine and I believe DragonPlayer relies on 
VLC libraries to play videos.

Any ideas? Thanks


# aptitude show phonon-backend-vlc
Package: phonon-backend-vlc
State: installed
Version: 0.5.0-1


# aptitude show vlc
Package: vlc
State: installed
Version: 2.0.1-4+b1

Try opening it from the a shell prompt with the option like below
vlc --ffmpeg-threads 1 /home/bob/Videos/lolcat.mkv

Let us know if that helps
