Omxplayer for Raspbian

[MJMcKevitt]

I posted my problem in the omxplayer forum but the problem only ever occurs in the Raspbian image so I think here is actually a more appropriate place for it. Basically videos never play to the end. They always cut off early. I've tried so far .avi, .mp4 and .mkv formats and all my videos are known good. .mkv gave an audio::decode error and .avi reported something about segmentation. .mp4 just stopped short and displayed a Have a Nice Day. Any help on this would be great. (I can't use Raspbmc because I have no internet atm). Desperate for an answer.

I've updated the omxplayer package in our repo (thanks SKG). Please update (apt-get update && apt-get install omxplayer should do the trick) and let me know if things are better now.

omxplayer was working with the bug that it ended early. Now after updating I get:

pi@raspberrypi /usr $ omxplayer
/usr/bin/omxplayer.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libavcodec.so.54: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Yes, I got that.
sudo apt-get purge omxplayer
sudo apt-get install omxplayer

fixed it for me.

A fixed package has now been uploaded.

Thanks I can finally watch my videos all the way.

I'm having a major problem with omxplayer. If I launch a video without "-r" I see the desktop on the top and below the video. If I use "-r" the desktop is not there anymore replaced by black bands as expected. The problem is (as posted here : https://github.com/huceke/omxplayer/iss ... nt-7761275) that when you try to exit the video hitting "q" you're stuck on a black screen with no way to get desktop back other than unpluging the R-pi.

Anyone had the same problem and found a way to fix it ?
