[SOLVED] Dragon Player does not play mkv & quicktime videos

Hi,

When I try to play a 720p mkv video in Dragon Player, I only hear sound there is no video whatsoever.
Same thing with quicktime videos.
The videos play fine in mplayer & vlc. Libmatroska is installed. I use the gstreamer backend for Phonon.

What am I missing here ?

The following packages are installed:

libmatroska 1.3.0-2
gstreamer0.10 0.10.36-1
gstreamer0.10-bad 0.10.23-2
gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins 0.10.23-2 (gstreamer0.10-plugins)
gstreamer0.10-base 0.10.36-1
gstreamer0.10-base-plugins 0.10.36-1 (gstreamer0.10-plugins)
gstreamer0.10-good 0.10.31-1
gstreamer0.10-good-plugins 0.10.31-1 (gstreamer0.10-plugins)
gstreamer0.10-ugly 0.10.19-1
gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins 0.10.19-1 (gstreamer0.10-plugins)
phonon 1:4.6.0-2
kdemultimedia-dragonplayer 4.8.4-1

Cheers,

Eric

I think better choice would be to install gst-libav. At least it worked for me.
