Sound doesn't work in gecko-mediaplayer

[Gullible Jones]

When I try to view this trailer or others in Firefox (using gecko-mediaplayer), I don't get any sound. Console output is as follows:

Other than the lack of sound, the video plays fine.

(It doesn't play at all in Konqueror, though; apparently the netscape plugin wrapper isn't working properly.)

Have you made all the updates available since you installed Pardus 2008.1 ?

[Gullible Jones]

Yes I have.

[MitraMai]

I had the same problem some time ago, the solution then was to disable the internal soundcard in BIOS, and changing the configuration of the sound- output in Tasma. Just a thought...

[Gullible Jones]

I'm on a laptop... There is nothing other than the internal sound card, and it cannot be disabled in the BIOS.

I have the same experience with the video.

You can try these three packages. They correct the absence of video playback.
I'm not sure about the sound problem of Gullible Jones, though.

NB : all three packages have to be installed, as they depend on each other : gecko-mediaplayer calls gnome-mplayer, which calls in return MPlayer.

I will test these..................
Additional info: When I open http://movies.apple. -link in Konqueror it plays with sound !
To be continued.............

These packages solved the problem in FF.  THANKS !
