Created attachment 714 [details] Service Menus First of all, "mediainfo" with gui works correctly, launched from menu or konsole and then open (or drug 'n' drop) a media file. The media information are correct, tested with audio & video files, in Mageia Cauldron (x86_64, KDE). Both GUIs (qt & wx-based). Notes, Questions & Problems: 1. The package libzen0 is in the repos (only in i586), but it is not installed as a dependency. It is not required any more? I tried mediainfo with & without libzen0 installed. Didn't experienced any difference. I couldn't find any detailed information about it, only that it's required for libmediainfo0 & mediainfo (-gui or -cli) packages. I decided to leave it installed in my system. Is it correct? 2. In the menu "View", when selecting "Sheet", the program crashes, without any information. Through Konsole, it outputs only: Segmentation fault. This is reproducable always, when "Sheet View" is selected. In Options > Preferences > Setup > Default View > Sheet, too. Also, when selecting it from the toolbar. I don't know what's the use of "Sheet View", but I think I should report the problem. 3. In menu "Options", in "Preferences" some selections don't work, changes are not saved: a. "Language" selection.There's only English. French is misspelled (Français instead of Français). b. "Shell extension" (the most important feature, in my opinion). If I am correct, is this something like a Service Menu? c. "Shell info tip". 4. This is related with 3b, above. Mageia's rpms are different from these at http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en/Download/Mandriva The main difference is these 2 files (from Mandriva's mediainfo-gui.rpm): /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/mediainfo-gui.desktop â/usr/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/mediainfo-gui.desktop They are not present in Mageia's rpm (mediainfo-gui-qt rpm & mediainfo-gui-wx). So there's no Service Menu for mediainfo. What I did: Copied the above 2 Service Menus from my Mageia 1 (KDE, x86_64) installation. They are almost the same, so I used the 2nd one. I replaced the line No12: Exec=mediainfo-gui %u, with: Exec=mediainfo-qt %u Copied the mediainfo-gui.desktop and pasted it, testing it, each time in one of the following directories: ~/.kde/share/kde4/services/ /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/ â/usr/share/kde4/services â/usr/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/ Unexpectedly, they didn't work. There was no entry, in right-clik menu, for "mediainfo". Finally, changed the line No12, in: Exec=kdialog -msgbox "$(mediainfo-qt %u)" I took the idea from the Service Menu: getMediaInfo http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/getMediaInfo?content=141946 I pasted the "new" mediainfo-gui.desktop file in: â/usr/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/ directory and worked OK! Do you think, this file is correct? Could the mageia rpms include this service menu file? Or, maybe, should be a different rpm, only for this service menu? I will install the rpms for mediainfo (from Cauldron) in my Mageia 1 installations (KDE, Gnome, LXDE). I'll report any "problems", although I don't expect any (except the above).

All three packages (CLI and 2 x GUI) requires libzen.so.0 (which is provided by libzen0/lib64zen0) so the correct packages is pulled when you install any of those three packages. Normally you can't even install mediainfo packages without getting libzen. You propably have tried run 64 bit mediainfo with and without 32 bit libzen. Try to remove lib64zen0 and you see that also the mediainfo gets removed as one of its reqs is removed.

I don't use KDE, but I'll check if we could include your service menu file in our package.
Added the service menu entry for KDE4, -3.mga2 should be available soon. Also, I can't reproduce the crash with "Sheet View", tried with x86_64 and i586 machines. Dunno if the crash is caused by using cauldron packages in mga 1..
You were right about libzen0 & lib64zen0. My mistake (a big fat one). About "Sheet View" crash: I noticed that it happens when mediainfo is showing information for a media file. Not when it is just launched from the menu and you haven't selected yet a media file. I think that this "Sheet View" is a customized view (from the user), so maybe it's not important to spend your time about that. I'll try to gather more information about it. About 3b (in my post): I couldn't find an upstream rpm, that includes the qt gui of mediainfo. They all use the wx-based gui and that one does not have an "Option" dialog or a "Shell extension" selection. So it seems that "Shell extension" is a Qt & KDE option (although it doesn't work). Well, finally, I'm afraid that my bug report was not much of a help. Probably I wasted your time. Sorry for that. Keep up the good work. More "new package requests" are coming...
Don't worry about "wasting" my time, I don't count hours spent with Mageia and/or bugs.
I'm closing this bus as WORKSFORME, please reopen or add a new one if needed.
