Hi, I tried to install the Linux version on my pc, but when I start a new project it doesn't open the video file.
I copy the log file, any suggestions?

I see ELAN can't find the Fobs4JMF jar file. <br>I am running ELAN 3.5 in ubuntu and it seems to work so far. Having said that, let's try to solve your issue.<br>ELAN comes with Fobs4jmf.jar (at least mine came with it) So, let's assume you installed ELAN in /home/username/elan/ ok?<br>So, try this: open a terminal window (how linux!) and type "export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/home/username/elan/" minus the quotes.<br>then try running ELAN from that terminal window (/home/username/elan/ELAN_3.5.0)<br><br>Another possibility:<br>If you are trying to run ELAN from the terminal window and it doesn't work, try opening by double clicking on it using a file manager (such as Thunar or Konqueror or whatever comes with your Window Manager.<br><br>I hope one of those work.<br><br>Francisco.<br>

If the previous reply didn't solve your problem and the suggestions at http://www.lat-mpi.eu/tools/elan/elanforum/simpleforumpost.2008-04-26.6781600986/ don't help you either, you might try replacing the jmf folder as included in the ELAN distribution by the official Sun jmf distribution (http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/download.html). In the ELAN distribution some additional components are included. You could install it besides the existing directory and adjust the Elan_Linux_3_5_0 .sh file; the variable
JMF="${ELAN_HOME}/jmf__Vlin2.1.1fcs"
should then point to your new directory.

Not sure if this helps; this problem does not occur on every Linux distribution and maybe not even on every Ubuntu installation?

Hi.<br><br>I have the exact same problem.<br><br>"Fobs4JMF - Native shared library NOT found"<br><br>I tried your suggestion with the CLASSPATH-thing. It didnt work. Probably becouse I dont know how to use the terminal good enouogh. My folder is installed under /home/user/ELAN 3.6.0 and the terminal doesnt accept the "3.6.0".<br><br>So.. maybe someone can suggest how to get the Fobs4JMF solved. Preferrably in a way a dummie can understand.<br><br>Thanks<br>-Stefan<br>
