Most apps will not play mp4 files.

If I launch them in Kaffeine or vlc the Desktop crashes back to the
login screen.

Vlc will not play off air TV signals without the same crash.

The mpv player will not start at all without the same crash

Xine however will play mp4 just fine

Is it possible to get some log output to survive the crash

It's working for me. What's the output of "urpmq --list-media active"?

I don't have a tuner in my computer for OTA TV. It wouldn't make any
difference anyway, as I'm in the U.S. and your broadcast system is
probably different.

No problem here with mp4 files, in vlc from the tainted repos, or in
Dragon Player. I don't have it on this system, but Parole works OK on
others.

Make sure task-audio-codec and task-video-codec are installed. While it
shouldn't be necessary for playback, it wouldn't hurt to install the
tainted versions of those two tasks.

Easiest way, if you are GUI-minded like me, is to search in MCC/Install
and Remove Software.

The core versions are on the CI, and I believe are installed by default.
Updating to the tainted versions should happen if the tainted repos are
enabled, but it doesn't hurt to check.

I did search for task-video-codec; nothing - not entirely surprised.

But I have reinstalled mga9 without the updates, just vanilla setup and
vlc plays mp4 OK. so there you go, mystery deepens.

I am rendering video with mga8 so when I get the time I'll boot mga9 and
do the upgrades
Or get stupidly adventurous and reorganize the SSD partitioning and
reinstall everything. I'll go for larger swap and temp partition. Long
overdue for a clean up

Helps if the correct names are used. :-)

$ rpm -q task-codec-audio task-codec-video
task-codec-audio-9-1.mga9.tainted
task-codec-video-9-1.mga9.tainted

Hope it continues to work after installing the updates.

task-codec-video-6-4.mga8

That's interesting video is not tainted but this is also mga8 and it
plays mp4.
I didn't select these, the installer did, one tainted and one untainted. ???

Fingers crossed!! archaic,but you never know
After the videos render I will do the mga9 update.

I still may reorganize the SSD but some days I get overcome by "who
gives @^%$&" it's working, don't fix it.

Damn I should have known that. I have used it lots of times.

Mageia 8 has ...
https://mirror.math.princeton.edu/pub/mageia/distrib/8/x86_64/media/tainted/release/task-codec-audio-6-4.mga8.tainted.x86_64.rpm
https://mirror.math.princeton.edu/pub/mageia/distrib/8/x86_64/media/tainted/release/task-codec-video-6-4.mga8.tainted.x86_64.rpm

It shouldn't have one tainted and one from core.

The same hardware software and install media, so maybe it was procedural.

I would have put in codec not just code, since that produces all maner
of false postivies

Anyway tainted has both
task-codec-audio-9-1.mga9.tainted.x86_64.rpm
task-codec-video-9-1.mga9.tainted.x86_64.rpm
Not sure why your system did not pick them up. But try doing
urpmi task-codec-video-9-1
(assuming you use urpmi)
and give the error message if it refuses to install that.

Note your mirror might be bad as well.

It should happen automatically when installing updates if the tainted repo
is enabled (both release and updates), as "tainted" sorts after (is considered
greater than) "rpm"

$ urpmq -i task-codec-video|grep ^Source|sort -V
Source RPM : task-codec-9-1.mga9.src.rpm
Source RPM : task-codec-9-1.mga9.tainted.src.rpm

Am I missing something or did I understand you to say you installed the
sourece rpm for the codec?

If yes, then, please, try
urpmi task-codec-video
and see what happens. If there are any errors or warnings pr other
problems, please post them.

If I'm miss informed, please feel free to ignore me.

The urpmq command shows what's available in the enabled repositories, not
what's installed on that system.

Use "rpm -q task-codec-audio task-codec-video" to see what is currently
installed for those two, and
"urpmi task-codec-audio task-codec-video" to install both of the rpm
packages.

No No It was the tainted version installed through MCC.
Although why it wasn't install originally with the tainted audio codec
seems to be the the anomaly. And it still doesn't show up

[faeychild@unimatrix ~]$ rpm -qa | grep codec
task-codec-audio-6-4.mga8.tainted
lib64gstcodecparsers1.0_0-1.18.5-1.mga8.tainted

OK I'm barking up the wrong tree. I'm confusing mga9 and mga9.

So I have installed tainted video for mga8 and now

[faeychild@unimatrix ~]$ rpm -q task-codec-audio task-codec-video
task-codec-audio-6-4.mga8.tainted
task-codec-video-6-4.mga8.tainted
[faeychild@unimatrix ~]$
with a resounding sigh

I will boot mga9 and check that out
