VLC can't play from NTFS volume

English Multimedia
1

I did the opensuse 11.3 clean install and get access to my NTFS volume by opening Dolphin in SU mode (is any other way ???). VLC unable to play any file from that volume, but Kaffeine does. VLC works with no issues from my opensuse ext4 partition.
Any ideas?

Thanks.

Probably it needs editing to have read / write in fstab

I used the SU password to mount NTFS partion in Dolphin(it doesn’t asked me for that like 11.2 did) so I started Dolphin in SU, and I able after that to read and write there, but problem is that only VLC can’t get there :frowning:

Please become su - in a terminal and post result of this:

fdisk -l

Thanks, it fixed by adding
/dev/sdb2 /windows ntfs-3g defaults 0 0

to fstab.
