Fwd: Re: [Lubuntu-qa] mplayer does not work in Lubuntu desktop beta2 32-bit

[Nio Wiklund]

Hi again Andrei and Israel,

Using the same USB pendrive (and without re-installing) mplayer works in
a second live session. I don't know what happened last time. This time I
booted from a USB 2 port and the first time I booted from a USB 3 port.
The install media is a USB 3 pendrive. Maybe something was read 'too
rapidly to be correct' the first time. Anyway, it seems to be a false
alarm, so you need not test it.

I'm glad I asked you guys before writing a bug report at Launchpad.

Best regards
Nio

Hi Israel,

No, I have not seen any bug report yet. As I replied to Andrei, it works
for me in an installed system. I will try in a live session again, and
depending on the result, you can select what to test.

Best regards/Nio

Hi Andrei,

I tested in the live session and mplayer did not work. Now I tested
after installation (via 'Something else') and mplayer works. I will test
in a live session again to check if it was some temporary error.

I tested mp4, avi and wmv files before and after installing
lubuntu-restricted extras. These files are my 'standard' test cases,
tested many times before.

Best regards
Nio
