Switch system packages to Packman doesn't help

**makradenk** · 06-Feb-2021, 08:26

Hi,
my video files doesn't play with dragon, gwenview etc. I add Packman repo, switch system packages to Packman's but no success.

Code:

At first I used graphical Yast, later I tried Konsole with command I found on forum.

Code:

 sudo zypper dup --from "Packman Repository" --allow-vendor-change

What did I do wrong? Can you give me some advice, please?

I do not think you did anything wrong. Did the switch install packages or not?

**larryr** · 06-Feb-2021, 08:52

packman he point to is not same as mine

Code:

It shouldn't matter. There are several packman mirrors. You are just using a different mirror. You should be seeing the same packages.

Yes, some. I can't remember exactly.

IMHO, may be I caused problem with Game repos I added before. Now I both game repositories erased, but video does't work. One more strange things exist. When I look to Yast, It looks like I didn't switch package to packman version, no change there.

Some people prefer to use "opi" to install codecs:

Code:

zypper in opi
opi codecs

Or else, install these media players in flatpak format.

You are right, I tried removed my Packman repo, make update and added new one that larryr has. Than I switch again. Problem remains

Well, it works! Idon't know what I actually did, but it works. I used "opi", 32 packages was installed. It is all.
Thank you all!

I quite wonder, why usual way of switching and using codecs from Packman repo didn't work. What actually is "opi" and what it does another way that all codecs was installed than.

Only installed packages will do an vendor change.

If you need a codec with licences (h264 f.e) you have to install this codec expilizt because openSUSE does not have it in their repos:

Code:

zypper se -s h264
