[mdlug] kdenlive cannot find right codecs [Was] Composite Video to USB Capture Cables

[R KANNAN]

All

I got the "Hauppauge 610 USB-Live 2 Video Capture Device" and it seems
to work fine with VLC media player.

But when I tried the same hardware on kdenlive" I cannot capture the
video. I get messages like...

[video4linux2 @ 0x7fc9206892e0] Cannot find a proper format for
codec_id 0, pix_fmt -1.
[video4linux2 @ 0x7fc9206892e0] Cannot open video device
video4linux2:/dev/video0?width:640&height:480&frame_rate:10 : No such
file or directory


Also in the rendering format tab, I get 'Unsupported audio codec
libmp3lame" message. I do have libmp3lame.so.0 under

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmp3lame.so.0

I also get similar messages for 'libxvid' and 'libx264' though I have
those libs as well.

Any ideas?
