[vlc] no video but the timeline

[Andreas Krings]

Hallo everybody,

i have got a problem with my second pc: When i load a video file in vlc 
i see the timeline playing a video, but there is no window where i can 
see this video! VLC logs that the module xvide is unavailable. So my 
question is what does this mean or how can a fix this problem! I'am 
running Debian Woody with X 4.2.1 with a Matrox g400 Dualhead graphics 
adapter. Mplayer is working fine, but i am using vls so i need vlc (I am 
using vers. 0.4.6 at the moment!)!!

Please help me. I need this video to play!

Much thanks!

Andreas Krings

BTW here is the output from my vlc:
