Summary: Fable: The Lost Chapters can't play video Product: Wine Version: 1.3.5 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: quartz AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
On launch, it hung in the splash screen, and the log showed
err:module:import_dll Library msvcrt.dll (which is needed by L"C:\windows\system32\msvcr71.dll") not found err:module:import_dll Library MSVCRT.dll (which is needed by L"C:\windows\system32\MFC42.DLL") not found err:module:import_dll Library MFC42.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\users\dank\Temp\DW210f4.tmp") not found
I worked around that with 'winetricks vcrun6'.
The game then started up and was somewhat playable. On startup, the game complained "Unable to play video." You could click past it, but it was still annoying. I worked around that with 'winetricks wmp9 quartz devenum'.
Even if we have to install wmp, it'd be nice if wine's quartz and devenum were up to the task...

--- Comment #1 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2010-11-11 13:38:19 CST --- In wine-1.3.6-421-gc138970, the video plays the first second or so (goes from black to a white screen), and audio continues, but the video does not change.
According to Maarten, it looks like a Fable bug. The video itself plays fine in totem, as well as when testing it with quartz (put it in wine-git/dlls/quartz/test/test.avi and run 'make filtergraph.ok'). The video then plays fine.
In the game itself, if you run with some debugging, you can get the video to play, but flipped upside down.
Running with GST_DEBUG=3 wine Fable.exe
usually works. 4/5 also work, and usually WINEDEBUG=+gstreamer will also prevent the race.

This hack gets the video to play upside down, without debugging set.

--- Comment #3 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2010-11-29 17:38:57 CST --- Video plays (upside down) in 1.3.8, but is broken in git. There's bug 25351 for that.
I've filed bug 25352 for the upside down problem.
Since videos do play though, and the remaining problems are different issues with their own bugs, I'm going to mark this one as fixed.

In a clean prefix with no overrides in git, the game complains that the videos can't be played.
Gentoo Linux X64 nvidia-drivers 270.18
I use KDE and Gstreamer is the preferred backend in Phonon. I have attached my log.

--- Comment #6 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2011-02-09 14:49:22 CST --- Please file a new bug. Make sure you can play the videos in totem first: $ totem "$HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft Games/Fable - The Lost Chapters/data/Video/lionhead_logo.wmv"
Works here in wine-1.3.13-84-g90c9681. Native d3dx9_36, but that's unrelated (bug 24942).
The video is upside down, but that's bug 25352.
