[Mplayer-dvb] Skystar 2 & mplayer 1.0pre2 probs

[Prakash K. Cheemplavam]

Hi,

> 1) use the last version  from cvs, your mplayer seems to be 1.0pre2

Ok, then I'll wait for a new release or try to hack an ebuild for cvs (I 
am on gentoo).

> 2) don't trim logs (they explain what is going on)

Well, I didn't do braindead trimming. Just tried to del redundant parts 
or rather parts yielding no new infos. As I saw where the channel switch 
was, I didn't take it out.

Sorry, my fault.

Yes, -cache works, but stutters, as one could expect. Nevertheless the 
channel switching is very slow. Hope with CVS version it is faster.


Should I post in the main player newslist regarding the xvmc issue? Or 
is it a known issue? (It simply doesn't want to work with nvidia binary.)


Thanx again.
