  <title>Cannot play a certain file format</title>

  <p>File formats displayed by <app>Videos</app> depend on <sys>GStreamer</sys>
  plugins. If certain file formats are not supported, please refer to a support
  forum of your distribution to find out which package to install.</p>

  <note><p>If you try to open a format which is not supported, on many
  distributions <app>Videos</app> will display a dialog which will allow you
  to search for missing plugins (codecs) and install them.</p></note>
