GStreamer does not play MKV [OK]

[Andyun]

GStreamer does not play the MKV-files (video codec AVC1):

Code: Select all

gstfaad.c(1319): gst_faad_chain (): /GstPlayBin2:player/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin1/GstDecodeBin2:decodebin21/GstFaad:faad1:
decoding error: Bitstream value not allowed by specification

matroska-demux.c(6040): gst_matroska_demux_loop (): /GstPlayBin2:player/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin1/GstDecodeBin2:decodebin21/GstMatroskaDemux:matroskademux1:
stream stopped, reason error

Well, try VLC, smplayer, xine, ...

Gstreamer plays mkv file perfectly fine here. Are you sure your file is not broken?

[thenktor]

The error seems to be related to the audio stream. Either it is broken or not supported. You still can try any other player. Some may handle a broken file better.

[Andyun]

Yes, the MPlayer plays, but I want it to be done GStreamer. Sample here (removed).

mplayer2 plays your example file, but it still gives out these errors:

Code: Select all

[aac @ 0x7f0faa8c5dc0]Duplicate channel tag found, attempting to remap.
[h264 @ 0x7f0faa8c5dc0]Cannot parallelize deblocking type 1, decoding such frames in sequential order
[h264 @ 0x7f6add8b2dc0]no picture

I guess the file is broken enough for gstreamer to play it, but mplayer is more forgiving with this one.

Should this be reported to the gstreamer-devel mailing-list of GStreamer? http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/lists/

I installed another builds of the package faad2 from here and it worked!
This package is built without the parameter "--with-drm".

[thenktor]

I actually have no idea if DRM works with faad2. Did anybody ever test it?
