mpeg4-avc not playing
#1
Question 
hi

I recently ripped a dvd using megui following some online guide (I guess the mewiki guide) The rip plays fine both on linux and windows. I have used the default mplayer in ubuntu and it works.. however my latest XBMC SVN port (jaunty) is not playing the file.

Here are the details from MediaInfo

Any ideas why this may not yet be supported, I understand that mpeg4/avc is still under development

hi

here is the Megui presets I was referring to
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=...ui+presets

Standalone-AVC-HD and (tested today)
Unrestricted 2pass HQ (tested yesterday)

both do not work with the latest SVN PPA of xbmc on linux ubuntu i386

and I used the following guide to rip the dvd's
