Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ibus
When I run vlc to see a movie with Windows-1251 subtitles, the vlc shows following error: [0x7f709c05dd50] subsdec decoder error: failed to convert subtitle encoding. Try manually setting a character-encoding before you open the file. Bus::open: Can not get ibus-daemon's address. IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon Warning: call to rand() and the text of the subtitles is shown as question marks. If I remove the ibus and all it's libraries, the VLC works properly. My guess is that the ibus did not start on boot, thus I am filing the bug against ibus. ** Affects: ibus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: maverick -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/711775 Title: subtitles encoding is not shown properly in vlc -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
