[Mplayer-users] MPlayer perfoms on RedHat 7.X ....

[Armand Passelac]

Hello,


That's the proceeding :

1) Download :
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/dload.html
--> MPlayer-current.tar.bz2

2) Unzip :
bzip2 -d MPlayer-current.tar.bz2 
tar xfv MPlayer-current.tar
--> we get the following directory : MPlayer-20010828/

3 )Don't use directly the ./configure    !!!
You have before to follow the suitable stages :

4) To go on the following ftp site in order to get back the CODEX
forDIVIX (DLL format)
ftp thot.banki.hu -> w32codec.zip

5) Create /usr/lib/win32, and to put in the DLL(s).

6) To read the DVD, you have to compile the Mplayer with the following
libs libdvdread et licss.
They are available on
http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/groups/dvd/downloads.html
libcss-0.1.0.tar.gz
libdvdread-0.8.0.tar.gz

Then you have to untar them in the MPlayer-20010828/ directory, thus
compile them :
tar zxvf libcss-0.1.0.tar.gz
./configure && make && make install
tar zxvf libdvdread-0.8.0.tar.gz
./configure && make && make install


7)Installe MPLAYER :
 
With RedHat 7.X you have to modify the configure script
(MPlayer-20010828/configure) :

a)
echo "$cc_version"
if [ ! -z "$cc_verc_fail" ] ; then
echo "Please downgrade(upgrade) gcc compiler to gcc-2.95.2+ or gcc-3.0+
version"
# Put the next ligne in comment
#exit
fi

b)
case $cc_version in
    '') cc_version="v. ?.??, bad"; cc_verc_fail=yes;;
    2.95.[2-9]|2.95.[2-9].[0-9]|2.96.[0-9]|3.[0-9]|3.[0-9].[0-9])
       cc_version="$cc_version, ok";;
    *) cc_version="$cc_version, bad"; cc_verc_fail=yes;;

--> add |2.96.[0-9] !!



then ./configure && make && make install

8) Moreover it's necessary to copy the file
MPlayer-20010828/etc/codecs.conf in $HOME/.mplayer/

9) Then try it : mplayer --help ;-)
Ex : 
mplayer -vo x11
/usr/lib/sgml/stylesheets/nwalsh-modular/test/tennis.mpeg 
mplayer -vo x11 -fs /mnt/cdrom/cybert~1.avi
mplayer -dvd 2 -vo x11 /mnt/cdrom/
mplayer -dvd 3 -vo x11 -fs /mnt/cdrom/
mplayer -dvd 2 -chapter 1 -dvdangle 1 -vo x11 -fs /mnt/cdrom/

Bye

Armand Passelac.
