Recently i have been downloading something i like to watch on a weekly basis. I have in total downloaded 6 files all of which have played perfectly on VLC.
Their files types are:
2x .AVI
4x .MKV
When playing these files i pressed 'Ctrl' + 'i' and looked at the encoding, they are as followed:
XVID
A52
A52
A52
XVID
A52
However, this week the file was released as a .MKV with ecoding: mpga and it wont play, it was released from the same people who have released the other files. I also downloaded another new, different file from these people and it was also mpga encoding.
How can i play these? I have been looking forward to it all week >.<
VLC Will not play mpga encoding?

Sorry, samples of what? :p
Just to update; just tried the latest version of VLC: 0.8.6d - Didn't make any difference.
P.S - Thanks for quick reply!

Re: VLC Will not play mpga encoding?
I guess your VLC is broken, since mpgv and mpga work perfectly in vlc...
So maybe some mkv with those are broken...
If you can't upload those, I can't do anything.
