Comment 1 Olivier FAURAX 2013-08-24 15:57:46 CEST 
In fact, it's a missing ffmpeg.
Found the trick here: http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php?topic=111971.0

Comment 2 Olivier FAURAX 2013-08-24 16:41:04 CEST 
I've added the missing Require in the svn.
Please, increase the mkrel and submit if it's OK.
Comment 3 Damien Lallement 2013-09-19 17:39:39 CEST 
You're submit was about cauldron.
This issue is for both 3 and cauldron?
Comment 4 Olivier FAURAX 2013-09-19 17:42:19 CEST 
Yes, I saw the problem on 3, then I tried backporting the one from cauldron without luck, then found the fix, and backported (for myself in local) the fixed package to 3.
Comment 5 Damien Lallement 2013-09-19 17:50:26 CEST 
BTW... Submitted in cauldon!
Thanks for the commit.
Comment 6 Damien Lallement 2013-09-19 18:06:40 CEST 
Please test both miro-5.0.4-4.mga3 (core/release) and miro-5.0.4-5.mga3 (core/updates_testing).
