I have installed DeVeDe on many other distros without problem. So I decide to install it on my HP desktop with Ubuntu 9.10, and it shows an error saying that it can't find mencoder and mplayer. I have both installed and can't figure out what the problem is. I tried reinstalling all three and it didn't do any good.

I fixed it! It turns out OpenShot was the problem. Why, I don't know. But, I uninstalled it and reinstalled DeVeDe and it works! VLC was also affected, as in it wouldn't play any avi file. But, why would OpenShot do that?

Strange... I have OpenShot installed and just installed DeVeDe and both work perfectly :P

Is this devede from the repository you are trying ?

If you are using the .deb file from the devede website, as I usually did because it was a newer version than was in the repository, just to let you know that Karmic has the newest version.

Alright, what I had to do is install ffmpeg with aptitude. This fixes it. But, if I try to install OpenShot, OS wants to remove ffmpeg. So, I tried installing OpenShot then ffmpeg, but ffmpeg wants OpenShot removed. I guess Open shot is the problem.

Edit: I searched the openshot website and saw this. I guess that explains it. I guess I can call this solved.

I don't appear to have OpenShot but I can't get Devede installed. I keep getting the 'You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.' Where is bzip2recover?

It sounds like you tried to install the source code? I would recommend using the repository if you didn't.

Just out of curiosity try:
sudo dpkg --configure -aP.S. I know I am shooting in the dark here.
