press the "look in software" then and install the cisco mp4 extension or whatever it offers

You are really missing out tough

The software-center gives a no decoder found error....

Meh, maybe I'll try it on my debian...

Hold on, I'll try this then

I usually just follow the link in the error

I installed rpm fusion and installed everything marked gstreamer on the software center, and then gstreamer-plugins* but I'm unable to play audio or video on my F25, any suggestions?

You can try "# dnf install gstreamer1-libav gstreamer1-plugins-ugly gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free gstreamer1-plugins-bad-freeworld gstreamer1-vaapi"

You can try "# dnf install gstreamer1-libav gstreamer1-plugins-ugly gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free gstreamer1-plugins-bad-freeworld gstreamer1-vaapi"

I tried this before, someone else already suggested it.

leave the goddamn ugly and bad plugins out if possible.

They have been repeadtly shown to be badly coded and deserve the shit they get, not to mention they have been used for a "download this file and your system will execute arbitrary commands" attacks.

And with firefox starting downloads before you even press accept drive-by infections were possible.

Oh, mpv is looking better and better now

Oh, mpv is looking better and better now

mpv uses system codecs and ffmpeg, so no builtins. And while not 100% invulnerable it makes for a shitton less attack surface and comes with sane amounts of default codecs.

And it has the sexiest commandline interface of a media player i have ever seen mpv --loop --vid=no --shuffle ./ will play only sound of all files recursively in the current and all subdirs randomly mpv youtubelink will play the youtubelink if youtube-dl is installed, can be given youtube-dl options like format or max width/size

And more

All i wish for now in fedora is the ability to assign all media files to mpv - i have no idea how i could achieve setting that for all at once.

That sounds terrific, but is there an mpv GUI that does all that?

it has a gui for media files

not for yt tough

Oh okie

it is entirely shortcut-focused for anything but the most basic actions and most things are accessible via commandline but even for normal use it works more than fine

It works but at a HUGE risk

Risk of... what?

The software-center gives a no decoder found error....

Yes, that's a problem I faced many times. I installed all the codecs possible with DNF. But Gnome Software Centre still considers them "not installed" and if I try to install it fails.

driveby download attacks that can take over the full system

by visiting a website

works on all browsers (umatrix, as always, can protect but is a ton of work)

Mmmm....

As people complained that this put fedora in a pretty negative light i think he made another, just as easy, file for ubuntu later on to show everyone was vulnerable XD

Sure this happened with FLIC in -good later too but making that one was, according to the developers, a pain in the ass and wasnt reliably executable because aslr and all

I will I already decided to switch to fedora and I have downloaded fedora 26 and now preparing my laptop to moving to fedora

That's great!

Could you post the commands you used and the metapackages you installed?

Hi there! I'm new to the group. My name is Fernando and I'm from Brazil. I'm running F25 and getting things ready for my upgrade to F26. For those who are already running F26, is Fedy [ https://www.folkswithhats.org/ ] working correctly? Thanks!

Could you post the commands you used and the metapackages you installed?

I can search them, but I don't remember now, I did it long ago.

Please do.

I'm now getting this after trying to install gstreamer*good* again...

Same for xplayer too...

Have you tried gnome-mpv, vlc ? These players come with video hardware acceleration and tons of features without need of any addons or plugins.

vlc work for me

the main problem is are you already install the codec?

I read about ubuntu machine got compromised because it open an mp3 files using gstreamer. Reading that, no gstreamer whatsoever for me.

Following this logic any and all media libraries would be offlimits for you then.

There's payload for everyting from audio, video, pdf and even jpgs. So, better watch out what you download and click folks.

Dont look at one single failure, look at how often they happen, how grave and if it was due to shit code or legitimate error.

Yeah, but now we have firejail, selinux so it should minimize the damages. Got more paranoid as I read more about sec related stuff

And with firefox starting downloads before you even press accept drive-by infections were possible.

How does this happens? I always have to press acept for the download to start....

How does this happens? I always have to press acept for the download to start....

No. It starts to download files already and on "accept" it shows you the progress it made so far

and on cancel stops downloading them

Yeah, but now we have firejail, selinux so it should minimize the damages. Got more paranoid as I read more about sec related stuff

Be careful on that road, its a neverending trail. You wish it ends at flashing a me_cleaner coreboot but...

Ok people, could you suggest the best, IYO GUI frontend to mpv?

Ok people, could you suggest the best, IYO GUI frontend to mpv?

mpv IS the frontend

winkey > mpv for a gui to drop files in

or rightclick any media file and switch default player from totem to mpv for that filetype

In the settings

Be careful on that road, its a neverending trail. You wish it ends at flashing a me_cleaner coreboot but...

Yeah. Adding more security layers is sane approach. It does never ends, let's just hope that the attacker motivation ends before it get through my box

Ok people, could you suggest the best, IYO GUI frontend to mpv?

--pseudo-gui

Hold on, I installed vlc but get this error on boot...

--pseudo-gui

Nope

I get the same error with focuswriter

"unity.css"?

did you install any kind of ubuntu-look?

No, course not.

ERROR: S client not available

oh and try dnf update --best --allowerasing --refresh -y

Your qt and the qt vlc was built against differ

Nope

yeah it doesn't work. damn mpv always depreciating arguments

Okie

I read about ubuntu machine got compromised because it open an mp3 files using gstreamer. Reading that, no gstreamer whatsoever for me.

Its fedora not ubuntu. I'm pretty sure SELinux will block such attempts anyway. ?

Yes u r right?

Not really. These things pop open and recently someone puked how crap the code in gnome-thumbnailer is

So we have a ton of fixes and fuzzers going over that soon

Are you talking about "Bad Taste" Vulnerability?

Are you talking about "Bad Taste" Vulnerability?

Not only

he later tried to inject malicious payloads via images(?) and succeeded

then threw his arms up because the code, to his words, was beyond crap to look at

OK, @Wolfshappen , which GUI do I use for mpv??? I've removed totem, budgie and xplayer, and gstreamer.... It'd be nice if I could get audio + Clementine working though...

Again, mpv IS the gui

open it via winkey > mpv enter

drop in any media file

or rightclick any media file and set mpv as defaukt

Again, mpv IS the gui

I meant like gnome mpv, smplayer etc....

the yt options and stuff are only accessible via command line

Oh, i dont use those

mpv has a nice gui ootb

this

It hasn't gui :D

the yt options and stuff are only accessible via command line

I have ff extensions I prefer for YT, I just want a media player for now. I can add stuff later....

It hasn't gui :D

i 'd call the above a gui.

Just a gui window to display content.

Looks fairly decent. Can I open stuff with it? Or play stuff I opened with a file manager?

drag n drop any media file

I got VLC to work. Installing mpv now....

Does the bomi player use mpv?

Does the bomi player use mpv?

Aka cmplayer?
