We present a tutorial passed that comes Totem Movie Player already installed on Ubuntu Linux and ready to work, but what do we do when we want to give play .avi video file and see that he refuses to play-eze ?? ?
Yes you guessed it, today we will talk about codecs !!! Many times when you want to play different video files and find that they don't work, you probably think about the cause. Well, the only reason is one: You don't have the necessary codecs to be able to play that video format. In some countries codecs or more precisely the use of codecs is forbidden! Why? For the simple fact that most codecs are patented and developed by various companies and to use them you have to pay. As Ubuntu is a very popular and widespread Linux distribution for everyone, in order to avoid possible conflicts with some countries where the use of codecs is prohibited without a license or without payment, it was decided that Ubuntu Linux should not come with codecs in the installation package but those who live in countries where the use of codecs is not forbidden to be able to install the codec packages very simply and easily. How? very simple, a "Repository" was made (warehouse where the files and sources of various applications, software, libraries are kept) where they are kept, and all the user has to do to have them, is to enter a command line in " Terminal "to" hit "the Enter key, enter the password, and wait for them to be added and downloaded.
Using these codecs and you can even watch the original encrypted DVDs (purchased or rented) without doing something special
But let's better to watch this video tutorial

ubuntu village are against tutorialu descpre how to make money from your site
So you want a recipe, right? :) The recipe is: stable knowledge in a field, seriousness, perseverance, originality, ambition.
Serve cold in small portions pt. to prevent intoxication.
Do not like, do not look, it's simple is not it? Tutorials you are not addressed to you, not just you visit this site! Money is very hard to do, not as you think !!! Subscribe to the words of IONEL There is no one for it
if you live in windows it looks at you and addresses you nicely
adrian Dad just will not let me see to the end tutorial was better when you were Grage see that very beautiful and does not matter where you were net figures
It is impossible not you can watch it via streaming tutorilul no longer have to wait to load in the browser cache, you can scroll from the first second where you want!
Hello
You are original, do not let your back, I and I wish you success bolstered.
Inde tutorials are good but could be even better if you somehow managed to make with less galgara. This tutorial can be summarized minutes of 8 just 2 3 minutes maximum. Tutorials that take you an hour, honestly I do not have the patience to watch all tutorial. My suggestion would be to make a small tutorial and concrete and concerns we can solve this comment. I do not think this is where my comment and I apologize. Increase further and I hope to take into account and what I said thank you.
PS please tell me where is the place with comments like that I can not handle your site is quite difficult, maybe make a tutorial about it :) success, bui bui ...
"gargle" (because that's what you wrote ... it was probably gargle) these are called explanations that are necessary especially for users who are new to Linux. I could very simply not say anything and just show. That's why people don't know how to use a PC properly because they don't fully understand the operating system and its basics. It's not important to just know how to do it, we have to think a little and logically that we are not robots to do exactly what someone else says! People need to know what a codec is, what it is used for, where it gets it from, why these codecs are not installed on any system, what they mean and what a "Repository" is.
If I showed and explained I would not have any of that you have learned mechanically, you have learned only how to do and what not to do so and not otherwise.
Maybe those tutorials on YouTube are better for you where you make a tutorial at an execrable resolution, everything looks pixelated ... it puts a rock song on the background, opens the notepad and starts writing text and you rub your eyes struggling to decipher what he writes in tiny fonts in that text file.
We have our standards and our principles, who wants tutorials and peri 2 fake title, to go on YouTube!
I got it wrong with "galgara" thanks for the warning. I'm not a great blogger or critic, I just said my opinion and I think I was misunderstood. What I mean is that there are a lot of downtime, rehearsals and other things that have no place (I'm not just talking about this tutorial). From what I notice you are a team of capable people, you can edit the movie a bit, (ex: you could cut the lost time with the installation, and the next stutter (let's close not close the window)) You can keep an eye on http://www.lynda.com I think will be helpful.
Thanks for your time.
Good luck.
We are capable and we can do what is on Lynda.com but forget one aspect !!! Those tutorials cost !!! Don't want a lot for free? If we hadn't done tutorials at all, it would have been better. Ok we will make them like the ones on lynda.com but let's see how ready you are to take the money out of your pocket for them ... what do you say?
Aaaa, no ... you wanted it for free, didn't you?
Why is it that people are so ignorant and so have high demands when talking about free? Do you have the impression that everything you deserve and someone has to be super professional to you for nothing?
We invite you to make your own tutorials, even stutter as ours so let's see how good you are in this, you're getting into?
Not directing any tutorial and do not want to do that! We are people just like you, we do not want to be a rigid television that reads from the teleprompter and if you take prompt no longer be able to present the news. Believe me that what we do is difficult as they do those of television! Not directing, not edit, everything is spontaneous, not stand to read the papers in front of them, we've got it in his head.
We SAFIM normal people closer to visitors by the simple fact of getting simple tutorials to flow naturally directed not.
Adrian tried to make the tutorials as small and as objective as possible with important details !!! If the viewers didn't give more details, they would say that it's not good for anything, let's say I see, and it's not true, you need experience and patience to do something right and find out something new, I don't use ubuntu finca I don't have a high-performance PC and if they give me a new ubuntu PC, I'll be upset, but it's like a revolt to call it what you said, a revolt that Adrian shows us and gives us a hard time everyone, you should respect him, and not only him, everyone from the Videotutorial.ro team, all the respect from me !!!! AM I RIGHT ADRIAN?
Adrian: Why did you post deleted? I did something wrong or not I made myself clear?
Do you delete it without even saying why? Yeah ...
BOGDAN: Ubuntu has been around since 2004, which means it's about 5 years old ... it's not that new. Ubuntu uses the GNOME graphical interface that has existed since 1997 so ...
UBUNTU Requirements: 256 MB RAM (recommend 512)
2GB hard disk space (I recommend at least 4GB)
500Mhz proc (I recommend 1Ghz)
128 video card RAM.
Go on a weaker configuration without a graphical interface or a desktop environment like XFCE or others that have a minimum resource consumption. successfully installed, it's a unique experience and if you like to discover the unknown you'll be amazed how powerful it can be a linux distribution.
PS gotta quit games or settling for less (I did not play :)). Good luck.
Well, you should know that I don't play much either, there is a San Andreas less often when I don't know what to do and after I got bored of San Andreas I uninstall it and put Conter, there are some small games that don't require too much like NSF Carbon or others that I did not have installed on my PC, but instead I put many programs at once such as: for written-nero and cdburnerxp, for music-vlc, winap, kmplayer, mplayer, for net-mozila, google chrome, opera, etc. so for a purpose I put more programs and I ask a lot and I got used to windows and these programs, and I don't change ubuntu permanently on this pc like ........ although I reduced from the specified programs leaving only the essentials and if I had a new ubuntu pc I put it in, and anyway I don't put another operating system in it like windows like linux I don't put anything in, this summer I put in about 11 operating systems and I got tired of my laptop , I specify that I have 1 GB ram, HDD 112 GB and it is about 4 years old since it was bought, he still has a problem with the dvd-rwar, he no longer goes to read the CD only the DVD and newer he doesn't want any more to burn DVDs and before I made a lot of DVDs, I found a DVD so I didn't burn it at all but it read the DVD and the CD, I said to put it like that but it doesn't come in and I couldn't leave without a face , my laptop is Packard Bell and the replacement DVD-r was a boy who had broken his motherboard and sold parts of it and that laptop was Acer and did not fit the face, now you you realize how tired this laptop is !!!
Now, after a few weeks of using ubunt, I am convinced that it does not rise to the heights of windows. It's like nothing works on it ... you have to struggle if you want to do something ... for example to install a software until you find the debian file on the net or most of the time you can't find it and download a tar.gz2 archive and you don't know what to do with it and many other problems. From the point of view of stability and security, it is much more than windows, but the boys still have to work on it to make it more user-friendly, even if they say it is.
Better make tutorials on windows because I bet that a normal user would not quit Widows's, and he arranged with familiar programs for Linux that you struggle to fcai something.
Tell me and me, when you first put your hand on a computer, you know to do everything at once, I had not learned anything?
Well this is Linux, a new beginning, it's understandable that it's hard at first, until you teach moods, chitibusurile schemes then everything will be easy and simple!
On Windows, did you know from the first to "play" with registers or did you know where to get them, did you know all the existing tricks and applications?
Nor windows is not easy as you say! If you want to do something and do not know what or how software is called what? Search Google right? So in Linux it !! You'll see how easy it is to those tar.gz2, we'll get to that part but I repeat
LINUX WINDOWS IS NOT !!!
You must have patience and to like to read! When the time comes and controls us will make home and will filter or monitor traffic to avoid and stop downloading torrents see then what will you do? I tell you, you go back to Linux!
Adrian, a question where controls are home?
If you looked at the news you would see that checks are being made, many were fined for sitting on hubs and sharing movies, games, music. It is enough to enter a hub and risk running out of PC and receive a large fine! Why? Because the police have started to stay on the net, enter your share and get your ip, and without any warning you wake up with the police at the door with a search warrant on them. If I catch you without a license to the operating system, you confuse it even more! In France, user traffic is already filtered, and whoever downloads torrents is "halit", this method has been adopted in other countries and will be adopted in Romania as soon as possible. Linux is the future, believe me!
Adrian Please long time when you can do a tutorial dedicated and about puppy linux distribution that I love and something mega..light of 100, simplu..superb in a word (in my opinion).
We also have a little tutorial about him, made by our colleague Dan, write up in the box "search on videotutorial.ro ..." on the right: puppy linux, enter and you will find the tutorial
Interesting, thanks.
Yes Cristi intinplat what? Adrian Lai did you fired? Please give me an answer that he had not given a hard life sem long !!!! If I miss tutorials's not like yours are not good !!!
Yes to know that many have asked Cristi !! Does what to intinplat no longer knows what to do it? Try to make a tutorial on How to make an operating system !!! It would be very good tutorial and it's so nuts about piracy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (my opinion)
Adrian, how did you manage to increase your window of Virtual Box installed with Ubuntu? One I can not! My little window and it remains at the lowest resolution!
After instlezi operating system in virtual box
Click on Devices and choose Install Guest Additions ...
It will mount an ISO image on your desktop (if the system is Linux virtual box)
Double click on it
In the window that opens double click on the file autorun.sh
In the window that appears click on Run in Terminal or Run in Terminal
Will ask Password (put your user password, the one that you log on Linux) and click OK
A window will open waiting to be installed and at some point it will write in that window Pres Return to close this window ... (return key means Enter)
Dai restart and voila, now you can increase virtual window!
If as a Windows virtual operating system, no matter which steps are the same, you start the virtual system, go up on Devices then on Install Guest Additions ... and the ISO image will be mounted and that autorun will automatically appear as when you enter a CD in the drive, install with next next and finish.
For each system you install in order to enlarge the virtual window you have to install that Install Guest Additions ... even if you install say 2 windows or 2 Linux distributions in the virtual machine for each one you have to do these steps if you want to enlarge the window with the virtual system, doing these steps you will not have to always press the CTRL key to release the mouse!
Thank you very much Adrian! Now let's start exploring Ubuntu: D
