[MPlayer-users] Benq DC1300 AVI problems

[Anders Östling]

Hi
I have a camera, Benq DC1300 that produces AVI's. The format is
apparently supported by an codec, but the only thing that is presented
is a black screen and loud noise. Here are some more facts.

MPlayer 0.90rc5-3.2.2 (C) 2000-2003 Arpad Gereoffy (see DOCS)

Opening video decoder: [vfw] Win32/VfW video codecs

I would really appreciate some hints on how to make these clips viewable
on Linux. As it is now, I have to move them to a MS box for viewing.

PS. ghoto2 works fine with this cam. I can download still images over
usb.
