I can confirm that YouTube FLV videos in 360p and 480p do not play.

I installed extra decoders from the application manager but it wouldn't read my flv files.

I searched and found

Code:

sudo gainroot

apt-get purge decoders-support

apt-get autoremove

apt-get update

apt-get install decoders-support

But I got error messages about lock resource temporarily unavailable..

How do you get extra decoders to install?
Now I've uninstalled it via application manager.

I have recently installed "Extra Decoders Support" on my N900 R1.3.
I can now play more videos; but I still can't play Flash files.

I have Flash and MP4 files [both are using AVC and AAC encoding].
The MP4 files will play; but the Flash files give "unsupported media format".

The file extension association seems ok... "
*.flv" files show up in my media library and if I doube-click on a "*.flv" in the File Manager; it tries to open it with mediaplayer.

I also had a MP4 file (encoded using AVC and ACC); but its filename [accidentally] ended in ".flv". This plays fine, too.

Any ideas how I can fix this???

I don't know if it will be on any use, but I have attached logfiles from:

Code:

dpkg --status decoders-support
    and
pkg --list 'gst*'

kmplayer did not play them either. It would just pause for 2-3 seconds, and return to its stopped mode.
