Can`t open .mov using GSVideo on Kubuntu. SOLVED!!
Jun 9th, 2009, 11:49am  
Hi, I'm a newbie in Processing and Linux (kubuntu 9.04) . I`m trying to convert my older sketches from window to my new OS using GSVideo as library. I open the classic loop example from the examples folder in GSVideo and it says "Can open station.mov"

Exception in thread "Animation Thread" java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not load movie file station.mov
       at processing.core.PApplet.die(PApplet.java:2192)
       at processing.core.PApplet.die(PApplet.java:2201)
       at codeanticode.gsvideo.GSMovie.<init>(GSMovie.java:117)
       at codeanticode.gsvideo.GSMovie.<init>(GSMovie.java:50)
       at Loop.setup(Loop.java:36)
       at processing.core.PApplet.handleDraw(PApplet.java:1403)
       at processing.core.PApplet.run(PApplet.java:1328)
       at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619)

Any help would be appreciated!

I`ve installed another packages and now there are no error messages. The sketch compiles and runs but i can't still see a thing. Only the empty background.
Any suggestions?
Regards

I`ve just solved the problem installig these packages:
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly

Thanks to my smaller (bigger) bro who is a genious.
But I ask myself. Who would think that installing two packages with the words ugly and bad in their names would solve the problems?

Well, I hope this info will be useful for others.
Regards
