How to play .webm video files in Matlab?

[Emanuele Colucci]

Hi to everyone,
I'd like to make that Matlab's VideoReader can read .webm video clips.
I installed gst-plugins-good, gst-plugins-bad and gst-plugins-bad, but
it continues to be unable to read this format.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you.

Emanuele.

You'll want *-base (say, 0.10.30), *-good (=> 0.10.23) and *-bad (=>
0.10.19), and also libvpx. Newer is better. You may also need
shared-mime-info => 0.71-2, or equivalent MIME-type updates for your
system. [1]

If you happen to be running Ubuntu, these are satisfied by the
packages shipping with 10.10 (Maverick).

Can't speak for Matlab video renderer specifically, though.
