Hi,

I am trying to play a wmv file with playbin2 on a dm500hd using the pipeline :-

gst-launch -v playbin2 uri=file:///media/hdd/movie/myfile.wmv

It plays - but only audio. The video does not play. The gstreamer log (attached) shows no missing plugins (I have added the necessary ones - I hope !).

I shall be grateful for any advice from the gstreamer experts.

Regards, pcd.

I am trying to play short mms .wmv videos from svt play without vlc.

I can download the mms stream into the box with gst mmssrc.

I understand from what you wrote - that realtime decoding is not possible. However somebody managed to convert wmv files to mpeg2 ts files - see here :-

It may then be possible to play the ts file while it is being written - with some start delay.

My problem is the writer in the gtreamer forum thread did not explain what he exactly did.

Regards, pcd.
