Cannot find demux plugin for MRL?
in [UK Linux]

From: T i m on 7 May 2010 17:27 Hi All, I'm trying to get a Freecom DTB-T USB stick working under Ubuntu 10.04 (or 9.10 or Mint 9RC for that matter). They seem to find the stick and offer me a 'restricted driver' and once I ok that it installs and the amber LED comes on on the stick. I then install Kaffeine, note it sees the device as: 'WideView USB DVB-T" and a scan brings up some channels. However, when I choose a (any) channel it comes up with: Cannot find demux plugin for MRL "fifo:/home/tim/.kde/share/apps/kaffeine/dvbpipe.m2t" The tuner works ok under XP/Vista. What have I missed please (in easy terms). ;-) Cheers, T i m

These two top hits for "Cannot find demux plugin for MRL", seem pertinent: http://forums.opensuse.org/get-help-here/multimedia/433592-kaffeine-no-demux-plugin.html http://old.nabble.com/-Bug-231854--New:-Cannot-find-demux-plugin-for-MRL-td27994530.html Also, why are using Kaffeine and not the default media player in Ubuntu (Totem is it?), or are you Kubuntu instead?

And FWIW I can play DVD's ok. >http://old.nabble.com/-Bug-231854--New:-Cannot-find-demux-plugin-for-MRL-td27994530.html That looks promising, thanks. > >Also, why are using Kaffeine Because I couldn't find anything on there that worked or looked like working? > and not the default media player in Ubuntu >(Totem is it?), See above. > or are you Kubuntu instead? Not that I know of ... "Ubuntu 10.04 (or 9.10 or Mint 9RC for that matter)." In the interim I installed a few other TV players (some I couldn't because they were to involved, some just wouldn't run etc etc), one being MeTv. I've just tried MeTV again and it seems to work (no idea what's happened since the last time when it didn't) so there is some hope! ;-) Cheers, T i m
