[Mplayer-dvb] problem with mp3 playback

[Martin Mittelsdorf]

Hi

I thing, my Problem is the same like yours. If i play a DivX-video over DVB with "-ao mpegpes" and "-vo mpegpes" the video and audio output
of MPlayer works fine. But if i will play the video over my Matroy G400Max (great work A'rpi :-) with "-vo mga" and the audio over the DVB-Card with "-ao mpegpes"
the Mplayer hangs at the same Position. Is it possible the DVB needs the Video ( -vo mpegpes) to initialize the Audio-Part of the DVB ? 

...sorry for my English, it's so bad :-) , native Language is German

Thanx
Martini

  hi everyone,

  I have a problem with mplayer playing back an mp3 file on my DVB cards audio output.

  If I type for example something like: "mplayer -ao mpegpes test.mp3" i get :

  Video: no video!!!
  Start playing... <------here it hangs?!?
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  after writing "Start playing..." mplayer hangs?/does nothing !

  If I try another audio output device like: "null" 
  for example: "mplayer -ao null test.mp3" I get:
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  .....
  Start playing .....
  A:   1.2 17.9% 0% <----audio output works to devive null
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  is there something I do wrong, or doesnt mplayer support mp3 transcoding to an mpeg PS?
  I have no problem playing a DVD or even DivX with mplayer on the DVB device, which means I also have audio!
  Even with VDR's patch to play MP3's on the DVB card it works just fine!(but only after I installed libsnd and recompiling VDR)
  Does MPLAYER also use libsnd? 

  thx

      Greg
