seen 741132 2.2.0~ds0-1 thanks I can reproduce this problem in testing, with the mp4 fetched using youtube-dl from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wE3fmFTtP9g
* when run as "lives foo.mp4" I get a dialog telling "LiVES was unable to open it" and the terminal window just says "failed" * when using the File/Open menu, I get the same crash. More precisely: Failed to open file - I tried: LANGUAGE=en LANG=en "/usr/bin/mplayer" -quiet -osdlevel 0 -vo png:z=1:alpha -lavdopts o=threads=4 -noframedrop -ao pcm:fast:nowaveheader -mc 0 "WildCat-wE3fmFTtP9g.mp4" </dev/null Maybe you are missing a library in mplayer (or it is not a valid media file) ? avformat detected format: mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 /usr/lib/lives/lives-exe: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib//lives/plugins/decoders/zzavformat_decoder.so: undefined symbol: av_find_stream_info According to https://lists.ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-cvslog/2011-August/039866.html LiVES could be trying to use an old API call, but I don't see anything about that in the libavformat changelog. I could downgrade to 2.0.6~ds0-2 and open the file through "File/Open", but still get the same puzzling behaviour when requesting the file on commandline. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
