How to run wine as codecs are supported by?

Hi.
I'm trying to use Subtitle Workshop on Wine. Everything is fine, but when I load a video to preview, I get an error, "It seems there is a rendering problem. Probably audio or video codecs are not installed." It plays audio, but not the video. How to solve, any ideas?

you probably need to install the codecs for windows.
You could install the Combined Community Codec Pack from http://www.cccp-project.net/ which is just ffdshow with DirectVOBSub and the Haali Media Splitter.
You probably need only ffdshow and maybe the media splitter for mkv/mp4 support, but you never know.

Yes, the CCCP is the only good codec pack. Never use any other. And, don't even use the CCCP if you can help it (just get ffdshow-tryouts and the Haali Media Splitter... QTLite if you need QuickTime, and Real Alternative Lite if you need Real). If you used something like K-Lite before, you're gonna have trouble... CCleaner and CodecSniper are good for that.

If it's trying to save to WMV, you may need the Windows Media Encoder.

I'll give CCCP a try. I hope it works on wine.

Try ffdshow-tryouts first. Then install CCCP.

Gnome Subtitles is also a good subtitle editing program.

I've already tried Gnome Subtitles - I guess Gaupol is the same?, and Subtitle Editor.
Gaupol can't play the video while I translate, but I need it very badly cause we translation is not about looking unknown words up, sometimes I have to watch the same scene again and again Actually Subtitle Editor can do this, but it has some saving issues. After 10 hours of typing, it had lost my file, since this I dont use it.

GERGE · 2008-10-30 18:25:19

No, Gaupol is a different program. Gnome Subtitles can play video while editing. I never had any problem with the saving.

After the CCCP installation there is the video, thanks. There seems to be a problem with alsa, I can't get sound, even aplay doesnt work. But it's not related to this topic.
BTW: I think I'll try Gnome Subtitles. I hate using wine

No. The CCCP includes ffdshow. You'd only muck the system more

What I mean was: if ffdshow works for you, there is no need to install CCCP.

As you are willing to try different programs, you could try using aegisub which exists for both linux and windows.
It's a little bit unstable, but I believe it's the de facto standard for the anime fansub community (which is usually at the frontier of video techniques)

Actually, CCCP worked but video stream isnt smooth. It skips a few frames always.

@carlocci, I'll give it a try because Gaupol doesnt open some movies
