Can not play real media files in kaffeine

[bailout]

I have w32codecs installed and xine extracodecs but I still can't get any real media files to play. As far as I can see from reading forums and wikis they should play with the plugins I have. Is this right and any idea what I am doing wrong?

many thanks

Re: Can not play real media files in kaffeine

Hmm - do you have ffmpeg installed ?

Here kaffeine tells:

clip 1
Mime: application/vnd.rn-realmedia
Video: Real Video 1.0 (ffmpeg) 320x240
(This is a bit crappy (in kaffeine), but plays. mplayer plays ok. VLC starts, but crashes)

clip 2
Mime: application/vnd.rn-realmedia
Video: Real Video 2.0 316x236
(Plays ok)

about win32 binary codecs:
"This package contain video codecs for popular proprietary formats not natively supported by mplayer.
.
.
.
RealAudio
RealVideo 8
RealVideo 9"

What is your clips information (version) ?

Do you get error message ?
