Cannot find demultiplexer plugin for the given media data

Asked by Philip

Ubuntu 9.10. Finally got Kaffeine running and was able to watch TV. I closed the app and about an hour later opened it to watch another program. This is the message - "Cannot find demultiplexer plugin for the given media data" NOTHING changed during that time. Before this I had opened and closed the app numerous times. Help Please.

I have a similar issue. Kaffeine was able to scan the frequencies and find the channels, but it cannot play them.
I tried to install different codecs : gstreamer good, bad, ugly and so on. and it never worked.

Totem can neither diplay TV.
Does anyone knows which libraries have to be installed?

I have had the similiar issue, like smyrno, too. But after installing xine, DVB-T works fine.
