Problem with mpgv - is there any other codec to play mpge2?
Posted: 01 Oct 2010 22:33
I have some problems when trying to play some 3rd party dvds, probably created with Nero. I get a lot of
and the video freezes.
I tried this dvd in smplayer and it plays it with no problem, but it is using ffmpeg2 as a video decoder and mpegps as a demuxer.
I tried
vlc --codec=ffmpeg
but it does not work (VLC steel uses mpgv)
So the question is: Is there any other decoder than mpgv in VLC that can play mpeg2 and how can I force VLC to use it?
