Pragha player doesn't want to play Opensuse-conference-2016

k_mikhail · June 22, 2016, 7:26pm

Hello!

From news: https://news.opensuse.org/2016/06/22/opensuse-conference-2016-day-1/

Ok, let’s chose https://streaming.media.ccc.de/osc16/relive/904/ for example.

Because I do not use Adobe Flash (I use gnash), I got this message:

======
Sorry about the Flash

                                          As there is no desktop player which supports time-shifting, we chose embed a Flash player here which does.                         If you still want to watch with a desktop player, use this URL: https://live.dus.c3voc.de/relive//oSC16/904/index.m3u8                     

                                          Note: Downloading this file is useless because of the way HLS works. You need to play the URL from your player.

======

Pragha player (from XFCE) doesn’t like /index.m3u8. It says GStreamer module is absent. Can somebody, please, hint what exactly module absent is to play this stream? Thanks!

do you have the packman repo’s
post your repo list

zypper lr -d

that player uses the newer gstreamer 1.0 check and see if you have it installed from packman

you also need to do a full vendor change to packman to get all the multimedia packages replaced from the oss repo as they are crippled by design

Also done. In general the trouble is the error-message doesn’t contain info like “…install GStreamer-bla-bla module” instead of “…you haven’t GStreamer module”.

I_A · June 22, 2016, 8:38pm

tested it with vlc and the stream works
you do need to do a Media -> Open Network Stream
the stream didn’t want to work with kaffeine or dragon player
and it worked bad in smplayer

I_A · June 22, 2016, 8:40pm

wow 30 repo’s
redo a packman vendor change just to make sure all multimedia is from there

zypper dup --from 11

if not use vlc as I tested that stream with the media players I have installed and it only worked properly with vlc

k_mikhail · June 22, 2016, 8:45pm

The following 3 packages are going to be downgraded:
  libQt4Pas5 putty xboard

The following 3 packages are going to change vendor:
  libQt4Pas5
    obs://build.opensuse.org/home:Alexx2000 -> http://packman.links2linux.de
  putty     
    openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de                               
  xboard    
    openSUSE-Education -> http://packman.links2linux.de                     


3 packages to downgrade, 3  to change vendor.

ok, will try vlc. Thanks!

k_mikhail · June 22, 2016, 8:53pm

Seems, not now:

 Кодек не поддерживается:
 VLC не может декодировать формат «h264» (H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10))
 Кодек не поддерживается:
 VLC не может декодировать формат «mp4a» (MPEG AAC Audio)

The same in English:

 Codec is not supported:

 VLC cannot decode «h264» format (H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10))

 Codec is not supported:

 VLC cannot decode «mp4a» format (MPEG AAC Audio)

k_mikhail · June 22, 2016, 9:08pm

I think, using html5 or gnash-compatible swf on live-streams is more pertinently or mirroring live-streams on opensuse channel on youtube.

I_A · June 22, 2016, 9:09pm

you have mixed packages from different repo’s you haven’t done a full vendor change to packman
you need to select yes to the vendor change

zypper dup --from 11

It works for me
here’s a screen-shot
http://i.imgur.com/6ff5wJs.png

I_A · June 22, 2016, 9:16pm

I also use Alexey’s doublecmd and packman’s libqt4pas works fine with it
you really need to do a full vendor change to packman otherwise you are using a crippled opensuse

The following package is going to be downgraded:
  putty

The following package is going to change vendor:
  putty  openSUSE -> http://packman.links2linux.de

1 package to downgrade, 1 to change vendor.

I said ‘yes’, but I don’t believe that putty can play live-stream. Ok, if not fixable in my case, let be so…

I can see…

I_A · June 22, 2016, 10:03pm

you can lock putty if you don’t want to change it so do this

zypper al putty
zypper dup --from 11

but as a general rule you should prefer packman packages
you can always reinstall putty from the oss by running

zypper in putty-0.6.7

Yes, quite so…

The second interesting investigaton: Totem player plays .mkv-files normally (video+ sound) and fresh-installed vlc – only sound, 'cos it sees problem with h264. >:) So, let it be as is. Thanks for your help!

I_A · June 22, 2016, 10:34pm

you have mixed up packages. totem uses gstreamer vlc uses libvlc, you can always check from where you got gstreamer

zypper se -si gstreamer

you can see some of them are from packman some are from OSS ie mixed packages
all multimedia should come from packman

I_A · June 23, 2016, 2:06am

if you don’t want packman replacing some packages remove or disable the full packman repo and add packman esentials

zypper mr -d 11
zypper ar -f http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_Leap_42.1/Essentials/ "Packman Essentials"

zypper mr -d 11 will disable your full packman repo, and the 2nd command will add the “Packman Essentials” repo, that one does not have libqt4pas or putty
then do a dup with that repo, do a zypper lr to see the new repo’s number or use it’s name or url to do the dup

zypper dup --from "Packman Essentials"

Done. And didn’t help again, zypper responded that “nothing to upgrade”!

not sure why it does not work for you?
try opening that stream again with vlc ran from a terminal
