Hello!

I can't find vlc media player for my VU+ uno.
I think of the player function not only streaming from pc.

Could any one point me to it plz?

If you can't find it in the software management, perhaps it'll be easier in telnet?

opkg update
opkg list | grep vlc

... and if found...

opkg install enigma2-plugin-extensions-vlcplayer

... or whatever the name is, but I's expect it to be the same...

Good luck,

Hi, I found a few but not what I'm looking for.
enigma2-plugin-extensions-newtube = the youtube player ( only videos)
enigma2-plugin-extensions-vlcplayer = the streaming player (vlc yes)
enigma2-plugin-extensions-vlcplayer-dev = fails as I miss the libs
enigma2-plugin-extensions-vlcplayer-staticdev installed OK but no clue where it is , not in plugins

I need the vlc to play my flac files without any streaming server.
as it's open source it should be possible to kompile it rite?

1. vlcplayer interfaces with a vlc server running on a PC, apparently that's not what you want anyways.

2. My Dm800, and I assume other models, play flac files "natively", no plugins required. Just navigate to the desired file in the PVR like it was a normal recording.

I got a vu+ uno running openpli 3, kernel 3.1.1
I have been able to play normal cd quality flac in openpli 2, but no go in the latest version.
I also got a lot of "high" quality flac. some of em I've been able to play a minute b4 they start bugging sound but this was'nt with openpli. I can't remember what img I used who played the start of my HQ flacs
I also got a few .MLP files who I've been unable to play other then in vlc on my computer.
I think there may be some codec probs?

All updates downloaded and installed, but still no go on flac

Well, you have read the other thread about this; that reveals that flac (and ogg for that matter) are supported by the drivers and work well under OI & PLi 2.x.
But apparently a codec update would be required to have it to work under OE2.0 and PLi 3.0 based images; the request for that has been sent to VU+ by multiple users (but feel free to do the same request: the more the better).

I also did... via their service email box.... but there is a lot of silence coming from the other side...

Yeah, same experience here.

TNX for all the replays!

Should I send this bug report to VU?
is'nt it a pli issue?
and a last Q. should'nt it be possible to make a full VLC media player kompiled for VU? ((as plugin) sorry for dumb Qs )

I am pretty certain the problem is only with gstreamer-0.10.36 which is in use in openpli 3, (it was 0.10.35 in openpli 2.1) as lots of users have problem playing files with openpli 3.

I hope for either a come back to 0.10.35 or a try to 1.0.1 which might be good also (gentoo's linux for example is still using 0.10.35 even in there experimental part).
