I'm having trouble with .OGV playback on my desktop computer running Trsiquel 4.0 (using the openchrome driver). Gnome-MPlayer shows lots of blocks, Totem shows a distorted image and VLC shows a black screen. SMPlayer plays the file, but it isn't included in the repositories (I installed it via a PPA). I tried this video: http://balance.fsf.org/video/lp2010-sat-rms+awards.ogv.

Also, on my laptop (Lenovo 3000 N100) video playback isn't very good. Only SMPlayer seems to work respectfully on Trisquel 4.0 (Gnome-MPlayer is stuck playing frames and Totem doesn't play a smooth image). I changed the driver to nouveau in xorg.cong.vesa (and removed the .vesa in the name). Should I mess around with other options like nv? In 4.5 the video seems better (even using vesa), however Gnome-MPlayer complains about something related to VDPAU which isn't supported by my Nvidia card.

Also, my battery on the laptop doesn't work (it takes less than 10 minutes to discharge), but I can use the laptop by connecting it to the electricity. Should I worry or can I continue using the laptop this way for good?

OK my last question was silly as I can simply disconnect the battery and the laptop still works.

Batteries go bad over time… how long have you had yours?

Around 3-4 years. It might have already been bad for a while as I hardly ever use the battery.

Actually after 10 minutes the battery claims to be empty, yet it can work for almost an hour :)

To follow up: nv actually seems to work better on the laptop it seems for video playback on Trisquel 4.0. Also, Totem and VLC can play the .OGV file there as well, but Gnome-MPlayer still shows blocks. SMPlayer is the only one that plays the file on both computers.

Now funnily enough Totem and VLC are willing to play the file on my desktop computer. I guess they are simply buggy programmes. Gnome-MPlayer complains about a missing VDPAU backend.

Actually Totem will only play the file properly if the file is already open (paused) in another player.

I had this problem w/ VLC. If you compile the program from source with the (--enable-theora experimental theora codec [default=auto]) flag it will work. I don't believe the VLC package has that flag enabled.
