VLC just stopped playing mp4 videos.
Feb 3rd 2013, 19:31

Hi all,
Running Linux 3.1.10-1.16-desktop x86_64 with openSUSE 12.1 (x86_64) and KDE: 4.7.2 (4.7.2) "release 5".
I am a fan of VLC so use it on most machines to play videos from my NAS. Tonight it has just stopped displaying the video. The playing screen appears and progress slider and elapsed time all work as usual but no picture.

There have been a few recent changes to my machine. First I had to switch to Printing Repo to get HP printers to work after they broke on an update. Then I had to clean up my multimedia libraries by switching amarok to Packman version. This made many very changes and enabled me to get updates of ffmpeg etc although I now do not have amarok because there is a dependency missing.

It appears however that VLC has been broken. I have just updated VLC to 2.0.5-102.4 from Packman but to no avail although there are no dependency issues being reported. Please could somebody point me in right direction to sort this out

Regards,
Budgie2
