video plays only when i log as root [DONE]

Postby greenskunk » Sep 4th, '13, 05:33

I use parole to reproduce a movie. It's stays stopped, but when i open a terminal and enter as root, then after i logged in, the movie starts to play normally, maybe it's a bug, but i don't know who to report it. To make it more clear if a close the console the movie stops again. :roll:
(Sorry for my bad spelling)

Which desktop environment are you using, which Mageia version and what media did you use to install Mageia?

Sorry, i'm using enlightenment, installed Mageia 3 (From an iso CD) and made an update but nothing. The problem could be solved by giving root permission to the player (since most of the others only crash).
*//EDIT//*
Problem is solved after updating by the testing repositories. :o

Can you try to just open a terminal as root, put it aside and then launch the player as normal user again?

I did that, after y logged as root plays, i exit the root user and as a normal user the movie stops again. Even when i launch the player aside from the terminal (i mean i launch the player and then the terminal). But starts to play only after i enter as root.
Since this problem is solved in testing i wouldn't go any further.
Thanks for the quick answers.
