[MPlayer-users] mplayer 1.0rc1 renders MP3 badly when compiled with -fstack-protector

[Dan O'Brien]

I noticed the mplayer provided by the freshrpms.net site compiled for Fedora Core 6 wouldn't play back MP3s correctly. The output was harsh and static-y.  Freshrpms rpm is based on MPlayer-1.0rc1 so I pulled the source tarball directly from mplayerhq and compiled it.  It worked.  

Long story made short, FC6/Freshrpms uses -fstack-protector in their OPTFLAGS setting in config.mak.  When I add that to the mplayerhq generated config.mak file, the resultant mplayer does not render MP3s correctly either. 

Compiler bug?  Mplayer bug?  Who can judge?

Gcc 4.1.1 seems to be in the approved list for compilation.

Rgds,
