Also can someone tell what that means.
You're most likely missing a GStreamer library. What codec or settings did you choose in ssr? If you post a gist of your latest log I can better assist you
Alternatively, run ffprobe <filename>
(or avprobe <filename>
) if you don't remember the settings that you used.
These are my settings, I made a random place to put the videos.
Try MP3 or AAC audio. I'm guessing you're missing some vorbis library. I personally use VLC to play all my videos because it always pull in almost all codec but that's just my opinion.
Actually I think Vorbis is what would be available, and it's probably choking on H.264 (which is patent-encumbered). Although you should try a Matroska container. Failing that, try an OGG container.

I would try to watch videos made on a different computer has been made with ssr using the same settings. Might also want to try moving the video from the current computer and trying to play it somewhere else.
Before that, try VLC of course. If VLC doesn't work then try the above.
The problem could be H.264 (which you can fix by installing the 'gstreamer-ugly' package), but it's perfectly possible that GStreamer is just unable to decode Vorbis from a MP4 container (even though it does support Vorbis and MP4 separately).
VLC should play any combination just fine though.
should i do the sudo apt get install for the gstreamer-ugly? Im new to the commands and all that stuff.
sudo apt-get install gstreamer-ugly
Thats the command, make sure that you have the dash or it will not work Also, Welcome to the world of Code by the way!

Couldn't libx264 as an mkv be used instead? That's my method. If I need a different format for youtube or something I'd just use handbrake and convert it.

Still wont work, I still get the same error. Also If I try to use something other than the H.264 I get this
And If I use one of the others I get this. [BaseEncoder::EncoderThread] Encoder thread started. [Muxer::Start] Error: Can't write header! [BaseEncoder::~BaseEncoder] Stopping encoder thread ... [BaseEncoder::EncoderThread] Encoder thread stopped. [BaseEncoder::~BaseEncoder] Stopping encoder thread ... [BaseEncoder::EncoderThread] Encoder thread stopped. [PageRecord::StartOutput] Error: Something went wrong during initialization.
As I said earlier, MP4 + Vorbis is technically possible but not supported by all players. Try replacing Vorbis with MP3, or replacing MP4 with Matroska (the latter is preferred).
This is my problem. I have no idea whats causing it. Aside from that, this program IS AMAZING!
