System Information
Fedora 24 and Windows 8.1
Blender Version
Broken: 2.77a, 2.78rc
Worked: 2.76

Video sequencer unable to import any movie to strips, it just says cant load. Tried all kinds of videos.
When i start the blender from terminal and try to drag and drop file to sequencer, i get like this:

drop file /home/user/Videos/file3.mkv
not an anim: /home/user/Videos/file3.mkv

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Open The Blender either on icon or by typing in terminal "blender"
  2. Set view to Video Editing
  3. Drag and drop a video file to sequencer
  4. watch the error message.

Cannot confirm this here, neither with own builds on debian testing system, nor with official 2.78 RC1.

Please attach here a (smal!) failing video file.

You need to test on Fedora 24 or Windows 8.1 with any file. I just installed Ubuntu 16.04 and it seems to work without trouble with any file. Fedora still cant work with any file.

Btw, Ubuntu has 2.76b, I am not ruling out that update to 2.77 will break it on ubuntu as well. Cant test that now, have work to do.

ALso, I just tired removing 2.77 from fedora and installing 2.76, the problem persists, Blender on Fedora wont load any file. It might be trouble with Fedora packaging.
