[MPlayer-users] 1.0rc2 - Precompiled Mac Version?

Tue Dec 4 01:04:34 CET 2007

I tried out the precompiled version from haque.net (thanks Mohammed!)
And it worked very well on my macbook with Leopard, for some wmv9 files.
I tried both the default video out as well as Quartz/Quicktime.

Many thanks,
Risto

Ah good that you are still on it. I do not know why MPlayer is not  
that popular at all, as it is way better than VLC. Now it runs without  
errors and I have sound, but unfortunately I get no video with the  
Mplayer OS X Video out module :-(
First there ist just the control windows with no sign of any video at  
all, but then I can resize the window at the lower right corner and I  
get a video window above the controls as normal, BUT it shows only a  
black screen while the sound is running perfectly. Although I can use  
of course the other video outputs as Quartz/Quicktime and CoreVideo,  
that would not make any sense, he ;-)
By the way I am not using 10.4 but already 10.5.1 Leopard.

Thanks a lot for your help and maybe you can find this problem too. If  
you need anything to help you I can give it to you, but at the moment  
as there is not even an error message I do not know what t tell you  
more,

Best regards

Nico
