This games use avi cinematics and dont work on proton

Possible affects other games with similar video files

Confirming no cinematics in Ys Origin. Game runs beautifully otherwise, though.

Confirming no cinematics in Ys Origin.

Also a few pieces of information: The workarounds (protontricks quartz and amstream) which work for Ys Chronicles (I&II) seem to not work for Ys Origins. Also I believe bug 9127 in wine bugdb is related (or, exactly the issue): https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9127

I tried several random workarounds to get cinematics to work, which some other games have benefited from. More specifically:

• protontricks devenum
• protontricks ffdshow
• installing LAV filters.

The latter two seem to help some games by installing some codecs / filters, which will do the decoding in software in some cases (if I'm not totally lost here)? However no luck here with Ys Origin!

Hello @lavadrop, please add PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to the game's launch options and attach the generated $HOME/steam-$APPID.log to this issue report as a file. (Proton logs compress well if needed.)

Hi @kisak-valve I configured Steam to use GE-Proton yesterday and the videos play correctly.
Today, after reading your response I configured it to use proton experimental again and the videos play correctly now but I'm suspecting there must be some cached files.
Edit: after wiping the game's compatdata folder, the intro videos continue to play back correctly.
I'm attaching the log.
