Comment 31 for bug 85751

As a very new Ubuntu user, I get the impression from all this that things are not as rosy as one might be led to believe. I thought the concept was collaboration and support. What I have seen with this saga is evidence of passing the buck and the sad "ignore it and it might go away" syndrome.

Why can't it just be fixed, or is the Mencoder support team just going to pretend that the problem doesn't exist?

I did think that this attempt with Ubuntu (my third) was going to be successful. Unfortunately it still seems to lag behind in multimedia support.

I will wait in hope
