wma and vlc

[lynn]

Hi everyone

I still can't play a wma file. In vlc the marker moves along as if it's
playing but no sound emerges. mp3's play fine on just about everything so I'm
sure the sound system os OK. Ive tried deleting the packman vlc and installing
the videolan vlc but still the problems persist. Perhaps I'm missing something
simple.

11.3 updated today.

Thanks so much

Not sure but I think you need to install - w32codec-all

Hi Dave and thanks for the reply. I have w32codec-all installed but no sound.
Not sure where to go from here.

I had exactly the same problem earlier today, and found out that the
cause is outdated or mixed between packman and videolan versions of
libffmpeg-devel, libavutil50, libavfilter1, libavcore0 and libavdevice52.
I updated them to the videolan version and everything now works fine.
