Same problem as encountered by "guest".
I've installed VLC last release (0.8.2 for windows), Matroska complete pack (french v1.1.1). Using VLC, i get audio without video; and i don't know howto watch the videos using matroska pack.
Please help.

the first Guest: did you change your video output module to "Windows GDI"?

and perhaps this is where that error comes in..

If you installed the pack you can try MatroskaDiag to see what codec is used. BUT VLC doesn't rely on the pack at all. It's not based on DirectShow and uses its own internal code. Usually when the video doesn't play it means the file is using RealVideo, which is not supported by VLC...
