Videos don't work on my Maya with Cinnamon

[westitaly]

Hi all,
I've installed just yesterday Linux Mint Maya with Cinnamon on my pc, but for some reason I cannot watch any video with it. The problem is not only for internet video (like youtube) but also for downloaded videos (MPEG, MP4).

As i told you before I have Mint13 with Cinnamon (32bit) on my Acer Aspire 5741G, the graphic board is an ATI Mobility Radeon HD5470 of 512 MB.

I've tried to update flashplayer, but I didn't understand if it worked or it couldn't update it.

What can I do?

P.S. When I used it in live session (USB) linux managed to reproduce all the videos, both youtube and saved on disk.

Maybe it has to do with the graphics driver installed at the moment. I bet running the distro live might not use all the same drivers or other settings as when you actually install it.
How about posting the output to this terminal command:

Code: Select all

inxi -G

.
Gives us more graphics info.

Problem solved, it was the driver missing. TY
