Please, don't provide ffmpeg, libavcodecXX and libavformatXX in the
Jaunty repository. This cause the difficult task to downgrade that
package and reinstall blender, dvd.slideshow, ffmpeg, ffmpeg2theora,
gstreamer, kdenlive, a lot of libs., melt, mozilla-plugin-vlc, openshot,
qdvdauthor, synfigstudio, videotrans, vlc, vlc-nox, winff, etc.

Status in OpenShot Video Editor: In Progress

Bug description:
Running version 0.9.43, and confirmed by another person at ubuntuforums. It seems openshot renders totem and vlc unusable in karmic when installed through the ppa.

I don't know if it's of much use, but these are the errors given by totem and vlc:

Totem:

On the gui side, totem shows a dialog with the "Internal data stream error." message, and doesn't play anything.

VLC:
#######################################################
[0xb7c08d80] avcodec decoder error: cannot open codec (MS MPEG-4 Video v3)
[0xb7c08d80] main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `DIV3'.
VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.

However, vlc manages to play the sound of the file.
