vlc troubles
I followed the tutorial on this forum and everything went smoothly....i thought. I tried to play .MOV files, some .avi files and nothing would work. vlc would just open and then close. It does play mp3 files though. Just no video so far. I ran a few command line files to see what if any the errors were. This is what i got for various type files.
.MOV:
VLC media player 0.8.5 Janus
starting VLC root wrapper... using UID 0 (root)

It is potentially dangerous, and might not even work properly.

VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.

I'm not sure what to do except try Mplayer or something. Thanks for any help, it is greatly appreciated.
