Bug Description
Running version 0.9.43, and confirmed by another person at ubuntuforums. It seems openshot renders totem and vlc unusable in karmic when installed through the ppa.
I don't know if it's of much use, but these are the errors given by totem and vlc:
Totem:
#######

** Message: Error: Internal data stream error.

#######
On the gui side, totem shows a dialog with the "Internal data stream error." message, and doesn't play anything.
VLC:
#######
[0xb7c08d80] avcodec decoder error: cannot open codec (MS MPEG-4 Video v3)
[0xb7c08d80] main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `DIV3'.
VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.
#######
However, vlc manages to play the sound of the file.

I'm the other person..
Narrowed it down to libmlt and other mlt packages that Openshot wants to install. mlt packages want to remove libavcodec52 and libavformat52 and install libavcodec-extra-52 and libavformat- extra-52 in their place. Once those two extra packages are installed, the stream errors return. I'm not sure what the difference is, but "extra" seems to be less than accurate.
