Cannot associate a video file #68

Open franzigrkn opened 3 years ago

franzigrkn commented 3 years ago

Hey Advene Team,

I installed the newest version from source and I am currently facing issues when I want to associate a video file. I assume that some streamer plugins are not found, but I have installed the one that have been suggested and cannot explain the error. For your information, I am working in a Conda env.

In Advene, I obtain the following error:

This is the log if it helps: Screenshot 2021-04-14 at 19 42 12

And also, these are the packages I have installed: Screenshot 2021-04-14 at 19 42 47

If you have any idea how to solve this, I would be more than happy.

Thanks in advance!

I do not know the exact conda packages, but you can use the Debian package dependencies/suggests for a list of packages. For the specific mpeg decoder, it is gstreamer1.0-libav (as Debian package). You should also install gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly (for additional codecs) and gir1.2-ges-1.0 (GStreamer Editing Services) if you want to be able to export video fragments/montage. If you want to contribute install instructions for conda environments, we can put the on the wiki so that other users may use them.
