Hi everyone,

  I am using MPlayer-1.0pre7 cross compiled for mips platform using gcc 3.3.5.I 
am using kernel 2.6.11.
I have compiled the mplayer using following options

CC=mipsel-linux-gcc RANLIB=mipsel-linux-ranlib LD=mipsel-linux-ld  ./configure -
-disable-x11 --target=mips-linux --enable-crash-debug --
prefix=/usr/local/mipsmediaplayer/   --language=en --disable-tv --disable-
network --disable-rtc --disable-edl --disable-vm  --disable-freetype --disable-
png --disable-esd --disable-nas --disable-sdl --disable-gif  --disable-jpeg --
disable-gl --disable-mencoder --disable-iconv --disable-xv  --disable-dga --
disable-vorbis --enable-menu --enable-fbdev  --enable-directfb 

I am able to play mpeg1/2 files but when i play mpeg4 file it gives the 
following error

/mnt/usb # ./mplayer sockbaby_1.mp4
MPlayer 1.0pre7-3.3.5 (C) 2000-2005 MPlayer Team

However running it on x86 shows compatibility brand #0 as mp42 and #1 as isom
