Miro<\/b>, formerly named Democracy Player<\/b> or DTV<\/b>, is an audio, video player and Internet television application. It integrates an RSS news aggregator and podcatcher, a BitTorrent client (based on libtorrent), and xine media player (or GStreamer) under Linux.<\/p>\n

Miro is free software, released under the terms of the GNU General Public License. While Ubuntu repositories still have Miro 4, the latest release has reached Miro 6<\/b> which brings flash support for Linux<\/b> and big speed improvements<\/b> for launching the app, navigating, downloading, etc.<\/p>\n

Install Miro 6 in Ubuntu 14.04:<\/b><\/p>\n

I’ve made the packages for Miro 6 into my PPA, available for Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr. To install it, follow the steps below:<\/p>\n

UPDATE: Sorry that I have moved the packages from the ppa:ubuntuhandbook1\/apps repository to ppa:ubuntuhandbook1\/ppa as a workaround , because someone copied my content (without even a link back) and got indexed by google before this post. So my post becomes duplicate in Google’s search result! <\/p>\n

I’ve emailed the guy who copied my content to ask a link back, but with no luck. I feel so sad because hours of my hard work has been stolen. Please help me if you know what should I do.<\/b><\/p>\n

1. Press Ctrl+Alt+T<\/b> on keyboard to open the terminal. When it opens, run the command below to add the PPA:<\/p>\n

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntuhandbook1\/ppa<\/pre>\n
2. Because Ubuntu 14.04 started shipping the libav fork instead of FFmpeg, we also need the PPA for FFmpeg libraries.<\/p>\n
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:djcj\/vlc-stable<\/pre>\n
3. Finally update packages lists and install Miro 6 as well as dependencies:<\/p>\n
sudo apt-get update\n\nsudo apt-get install ffmpeg miro<\/pre>\n
That’s it. Enjoy!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
