I obtained VLC fron the VLC repository

So I did like you said: I deleted the VLC repository, and installed VLC from packman (which was already installed), and w32codec-all and xvid.
But it still doesn't work

When I try to open a video (avi, mkv, wmv) file, it returns a error message without details, or VLC simply kills itself. With mp3s, it opens, it seems to play it, but there's no sound.
I thought that VLC is "shipped" with all the codecs (except realmedia ones).
