omxplayer cannot display VOB-Video any more

Sat Sep 29, 2012 11:38 am

Hi,
i changed from Raspbian as of 2012-08-16 to Raspbian 2012-09-18, made an new installation, did
update and upgrade. But the omxplayer did'n show VOD-Videos any more.

I have installed my MPEG2-Key as bevore!
vcgencmd codec_enabled MPG2 shows not enabled!

What is going wrong? Is there a bug?

greetings from Werner

cat /proc/cpuinfo

Hi, here commes my config.txt
# uncomment if you get no picture on HDMI for a default "safe" mode
#hdmi_safe=1

# uncomment this if your display has a black border of unused pixels visible
# and your display can output without overscan
#disable_overscan=1

# uncomment the following to adjust overscan. Use positive numbers if console
# goes off screen, and negative if there is too much border
#overscan_left=16
#overscan_right=16
#overscan_top=16
#overscan_bottom=16

# uncomment to force a console size. By default it will be display's size minus
# overscan.
#framebuffer_width=1280
#framebuffer_height=720

# uncomment if hdmi display is not detected and composite is being output
#hdmi_force_hotplug=1

# uncomment to force a specific HDMI mode (this will force VGA)
#hdmi_group=1
#hdmi_mode=1

# uncomment to force a HDMI mode rather than DVI. This can make audio work in
# DMT (computer monitor) modes
#hdmi_drive=2

# uncomment to increase signal to HDMI, if you have interference, blanking, or
# no display
#config_hdmi_boost=4

# uncomment for composite PAL
#sdtv_mode=2

#uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
#arm_freq=800

# MPEG2-Decoder
Decode_MPG2=0x71bc7328

# for more options see http://elinux.org/RPi_config.txt

and here comes my cpuinfo:
Processor : ARMv6-compatible processor rev 7 (v6l)
BogoMIPS : 697.95
Features : swp half thumb fastmult vfp edsp java tls
CPU implementer : 0x41
CPU architecture: 7
CPU variant : 0x0
CPU part : 0xb76
CPU revision : 7

Hardware : BCM2708
Revision : 0002
Serial : 000000004c94523e

Please take in care that because the omxplayer which comes with the Raspbian 2012-0918 did not show VOB-Videos i removed the omxplayer and have installed actually from omxplayer_0.2.1~git20120927~0dfcba62_armhf.deb. Same result!
Thanks for your reply, Heiner188

Well that's easy:
decode_MPG2
starts with a lower case d.

Using the commands:

$ /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd codec_enabled MPG2
MPG2=enabled

$ /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd codec_enabled WVC1
WVC1=enabled

Is an easy way to confirm that the key(s) you are using are actually enabled.

Oh, Oh, Oh
Thank you very much. Now omxplayer works again!
Microsoft Word did a change (as ever) in my documentation and made a capital D as first character.
When i was setting up Raspbian 2012-0918 i trusted my documentation and i was taking "Decode...".

Oh, Oh, Oh

Yeah, if you use word to write technical documents where case matters you probably want to turn that feature off (it's in the autocorrect settings iirc)
