MC 29 not finding videofiles

<< < (2/4) > >>

bwa:
I seriously doubt that. All paths are browsed, and music and pictures are found fine. I even found the movies by importing as datafiles.

Something is making MC ignore videos other than wmv

JimH:
If you imported the files as data files, just edit the Media Sub-type tag.

bob:
MC has to download a video component to parse the video files that it's importing.
If it's unable to do that for any reason it will not be able to parse them and they will end up as documents or data in MC's DB.

There are several reasons why that video component might not work.

1) You are not connected to the internet
2) You are running on a non-debian derived distro and your ssl certificate store isn't in the debian place.
3) You are running on a non-debian derived distro and your distro doesn't have the proper libraries to support the video component.
4) You've got permissions/ownership issues in the home directory where the plugin is downloaded to.

Look in ~/.jriver/Media\ Center\ 29\Plugins to see if the libav component exists.

Bob: Nice.

This is my plugins, not shure if that is one of the expected
