vokoscreen codec pack for reading

Details, please!

Which Ubuntu release are you running?

In earlier Ubuntu releases there was the package vokoscreen, but this has been superseded by vokoscreen-ng in Ubuntu releases starting from focal.

Maybe you are missing the extra codec packages gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad and gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly

Hi,
Thanks for your answer.

The extra codec packages gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad and gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly are installed.
My release is Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS.
The vokoscreen and vokoscreen-ng 3.1.0-1 packages are installed.

My laptop is HP 14s-fq0030nf with AMD RYZEN 4000 Series 5.

Also I had to change the shortcuts that didn’t work:
[vokoscreenNG] Set global shortcut for Start: SHIFT+META+F10
[vokoscreenNG] Set global shortcut for Pause: SHIFT+META+F12

thanks,
DB

Does it work now as desired?
In that case please set the status of this question to "solved".
If not, then please provide more details of what is not working.

Hi,
Audio and videoplayer don't work.
in "https://vokoscreen.volkoh.de/3.0/help/en/player/help_player_player.html" no solution for Ubuntu.

Try installing the package gstreamer1.0-libav

Hi,
The package is already installed:
Package: gstreamer1.0-libav
Status: install ok installed
Thanks,
DB

N.B.:
Via ordner (folder-dossier) I can play the current video file throught Totem video player.

If you can play the video with totem, but not with vokoscreenNG, then this seems to be a problem or error in vokoscreenNG and not a missing codec.

Which encoding was used for this video?

As an additional test you could try playing that video with the vlc multimedia player.

HI,
I can play the video file with VLC.
Thanks,
DB

Maybe you are seeing the same problem as reported in https://github.com/vkohaupt/vokoscreenNG/issues/240
I suggest that you monitor that page, or eventually create an issue document of your own.

In the moment I do not see anything that can be done from Ubuntu side.

Just detected another package that might be missing

sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-pipewire

Hi,
The gstreamer1.0-pipewire is already installed.

With the beta-06 release the file GST-Debuglevel-3.txt contains:

Hi,
Thank you very much for your attention.
See you soon perhaps,
DB
