Hi Renato
i've seen your question, i don't think to look this categorie.
Your files are specials, could you use this command on your file :
ffmpeg -i myfile.vob
and if you can on your device plugged on your systeme :
 ffmpeg -i /dev/the path of this device/
could you read this file with Totem, Mplayer, VLC ?

Hi cenew,
this is the output of the command on the HD file

Does this

means that the movie lasts 5 sec?
This is how OS says too, but if i watch it with VLC, I can see a about
20 minutes of video :"-). So what's up?!

TIA

You can see 20 minutes of video in VLC ? Impossible your video done only 5 minutes and 35 seconds. How is it possible ?
Could you use this software : Mediainfo. : http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/fr
you pass the website in your natural language and after do the operation for installing this sofware. After run it and choose this file. and put a screenshot. There is something very strange , you have same a odd bitrate (enormous for a mpeg2 file)

Hi,
it seems that the 5 sec that I have in OS, are just the firs 1,5 sec of
the firs piece, ad 4 sec. of the second.
very strange.

Hi Renato

okay now it's better. It seems to be MLT which give you some problems. The only solution that i can see for you, it's to update your version of MLT. And like there is no binairy for the last 0.4.10 (i have tried and failed to create one), you have just one thing to do : compile it. It's the common commands : ./configure, make and sudo make install (or sudo make checkinstall if it's just for a test). before installing the packet checkinstall if you want used the second solution. You can have the last version here : http://www.mltframework.org/twiki/bin/view/MLT/
Good luck and Thanks for your perseverance.
Olivier

Hi Oliver (not cenew?),
Thank you to you for YOUR perseverance !
But things still goes wrong :-(

  Installato: 0.4.10-0ubuntu0~karmic1
  Candidato: 0.4.10-0ubuntu0~karmic1
  Tabella versione:
 *** 0.4.10-0ubuntu0~karmic1 0

Hi Renato
My nickname is Cenwen but my first-name is Olivier.
Second thing. Normal you have too version of MLT. First desintall the version 0.44 and Openshot too with synaptic.(with the option purge = clean ) and after install Openshot. Normaly it will be ok. Hum certainly, i should precise to desintall MLT and Openshot (of course if MLT is desintalled) before. Sorry.
