If you can not play video or audio through openlp, there are several areas that
|

could be an issue. First thing is to make sure you can play the media file
|
||||
through your default media player. OpenLP should be able to play any file that
|
||||
you can play through your default media player.
|
||||
If you can not play video or audio through OpenLP, the problem is most likely
|
||||
that the media players have not be properly configured. The recommended media
|
||||
player for OpenLP is VLC, see the manual for :ref:`config_players` for how to
|
||||
setup VLC as your default player.
|
||||
|
||||
If you can play a file through your media player but not on OpenLP it may help
|
||||
to enable Phonon for multimedia playback. Go to the OpenLP configuration
|
||||
:menuselection:`Settings --> Configure OpenLP...` and select the Media tab.
