Hi, 
 
I have a XBMC on Raspberry Pi - Open Elec. Most videos play correctly but some, like DVD, play output like a volume meter. 
 
Probably I need to install some kind of plugin? 
 
Please advise.

Note: I found this, but the video is DVD (TS_VIDEO) not MPEG2 ...?

Install MPEG-2 and VC1 video codecs 
 
In order to play MPEG-2 and VC1 video files, you will need to purchase codec licenses from the Raspberry Pi foundation. 
 
Install the codecs by following these steps: 
 
&nbsp; &nbsp; Purchase MPEG-2 and VC1 codec license keys 
&nbsp; &nbsp; You will receive the license key from your email within 72 hours 
&nbsp; &nbsp; In Raspbmc, go to Programs &gt;&nbsp;Raspbmc Settings &gt;&nbsp;System Configuration 
&nbsp; &nbsp; Enter the license key from your email to MPEG-2 and/or VC1 codec under the Advanced system settings 
&nbsp; &nbsp; Reboot the system

Multimedia applications are those programs that integrate more than one media at a time; browsers are the most obvious. However, the term has come to include the use of programs that enable the use of any component that isn’t simple text and static graphics, such as audio, video, animation, virtual reality, conferencing and monitoring.

MultiMedia Applications

The Raspberry Pi Foundation works to put the power of digital making into the hands of people all over the world, so they are capable of understanding and shaping our increasingly digital world, able to solve the problems that matter to them, and equipped for the jobs of the future.

We provide low-cost, high-performance computers that people use to learn, solve problems and have fun. We provide outreach and education to help more people access computing and digital making. We develop free resources to help people learn about computing and how to make things with computers, and train educators who can guide other people to learn.
