You need to rebuild mplayer with either the codecs in the directory
mentioned in the README or specify where they are at. The ffrpza codec
is one that is included with ffmpeg so it doesn't always do as well as
the binary.

It might also help to have a sample file for others to test it with.

Good Luck

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Generating film strips
Message-ID: <46D8AE3C.5040006@gmail.com>

Hi,

i have recently been forced to move to Linux and there are only few
things which I miss. One of them is software for generating film strip /
video previews (media player classic does this very good).

I have tried writing my own bash script using mplayer and imagemagick,
the problem is that the only working way is to save ALL frames thru png
video output. This is not only completely stupid, but also very slow and
requires a lot of disk space.

I have tried calculating the required frames and then using "mplayer
-frames 1 -ss frame -vo png file" and "mplayer -sstep timestep -vo png
file" but the first one creates odd results (artifacts in screens) and
the second one sometimes jumps thru keyframes and doesn't generate the
desired number of frames.

So, is there any way how I can make video preview using mplayer, or is
there any chance that this feature will be added (should be a realy
small peace of code).

Thx for answers

I seem to remember some discussion on this list about using a
particular up-to-date version of mplayer but I don't remember what it
is.  So what should I go get and install?  If it matters, I'm running
Fedora Core 7 with an AMD Athlon 64-bit processor.

Thanks,

You should install a Subversion client, check out the latest development
source, compile that and install the result.

This is strictly required for submitting bug reports, and is recommended
for the MPlayer project in any case. (Not all projects advise running
the latest development code, and in some cases it may even be a bad
idea, but this one certainly does.)

OK, still the same problem.  I used subversion and downloaded r24313.
The README said to put the binary codecs in /usr/local/lib/codecs
which I did.  Then I did a straight
./configure
make         and
make install
and ran mplayer and it still used ffrpza and still failed the same way.

I threw out the old version of mplayer from Fedora Core 7 and

Do I have to do something special in the configure step or download

You're in a misunderstanding. I'm compiling it just from the source. I 
follow to the instructions from MinGWHOWTO. And all my questions are related 
just to nasm compilation. Though I saw similar errors in OGG and Vorbis 
sources compilation.

OK, now I have GNU make 3.80. Will seek for 3.79 one.

It wont play in VLC too if thats help.

As for mplayer useing "-vid X" with stream number provided does nothing 
as well.

Perhaps this can help both the viewer and the developers:
xine played it for me.  Usually mplayers plays more things
than xine. :)

I understand this as saying that you are attempting to compile NASM so
as to be able to use it when compiling MPlayer.

To state the obvious, NASM is not the same project as MPlayer; to state
the slightly less obvious, it is not developed by the same people. If
you're having trouble compiling a different project, you should ask on
the mailing lists for that project. We do not support anything but
MPlayer here.

Yes, the first 2-3 after a seek should be discarded.  In the past it
generated one less frame than requested, but that appears to have been
fixed, and you're just using an old version.

There are dozens of different ways to do it.

That was probably the wrong thing to do. By tilde, I assume you mean
` (backquote). When a command is enclosed in backquotes, the screen
output of the command is converted to a string which can be, for example,
stored in a variable.

No need to remove Cygwin totally. Just remove the Cygwin bin directory from
your %PATH%, and run configure again. I don't know if there is a "correct"
way, but you can simply delete the entire Cygwin folder. I do not think that
Cygwin makes entries in the Registry, or copies files to \WINDOWS\SYstem32

xvidcore also uses nasm.

You mentioned in an earlier post that you used "the latest version 
available".
I have never tried 0.99.01 (if that is the one that you mean), but I had no
problem building 0.98.39. I am using make 3.79.1.

OK, figured out how (more-or-less) to find my way around the archives
and found a long thread on how to compile with dvdnav support.
Eventually got it done but now get

 mplayer  dvdnav://  -dvd-device  /dev/scd0  -mouse-movements
mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libdvdnavmini.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

libdvdnavmini.so does exist in /usr/local/lib

[kizoku at natsumi ~]$ ls -la /usr/local/lib | grep mini
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root  86400 2007-09-01 09:58 libdvdnavmini.a
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     18 2007-09-01 09:57 libdvdnavmini.so ->

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root  94424 2007-09-01 09:57 libdvdnavmini.so.4.1.1

Looking in the archives some more I found a suggestion to use

[root at natsumi mplayer]# ./configure --libdir=/usr/local/lib

Which I did, with no more success.  To be certain what I had done, I
completely removed the mplayer and libdvdnav files and started over.

svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer
cd mplayer
svn co svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/dvdnav/trunk/libdvdnav
cd libdvdnav
./configure2 --with-dvdread=/usr/include/dvdread/
make install
/usr/local/bin/dvdnav-config --minilibs && echo I AM USING THE RIGHT
VERSION OF DVDNAV

it agreed that I had the right version

cd ..
./configure ?libdir=/usr/local/lib
make
make install

and re-ran mplayer.  It still cannot open the shared object file.  Any
idea what I'm still doing wrong?  Now mplayer itself fails with the
same message.

[root at natsumi mplayer]#  mplayer  dvd://1  -dvd-device  /dev/scd0
mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libdvdnavmini.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Thanks,
Jack

add /usr/local/lib either to LD_LIBRARY_PATH or to /etc/ld.so.conf
and re-run ldconfig. What broken distribution doesn't include
/usr/local/lib to the default library path??

I have no any issues thought that I'm running full libdvdnav2 not a mini 
version and I'm useing "mplayer dvdnav://1 -dvd-device /dev/hda"

You really should read the MingwHOWTO.txt and save yourself a lot of
headaches. There are a lot of good pointers on how to build the necessary
libraries like ./configure --disable-shared --prefix=/mingw

Check the software section HKEY_Current_USER, HKEY_Current_CONFIG. You'll
find the Cygnus Solutions Entry  in the registry. Again, Cygwin has its own
documentation on how to install and remove their software. You might be
better off reading their documentation instead of asking on this list.

Nasm 98.38 and 98.39 compile and work with mplayer

But if you really enjoy beating your head against the wall, disregard all
advice to read and follow the advice on the
MingwHOWTO.txt<http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/win32/contrib/MPlayer-MinGW-Howto.txt>

http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/win32/contrib/MPlayer-MinGW-Howto.txt

There is another caveat you have to watch when compiling with Windows Mingw
even if you follow the advice on the HOWTO.

 What's your user name in mingw?

If there are any spaces such as in the following:  Joe Blow at mycomputer ~.

This will cause compile problems with mplayer. Just change back into the
home directory and make a directory with no spaces: e.g.
/c/msys/1.0/home/JoeBlow and move your sources back into that directory and
compile from there or just change your username: e.g. Joe_Blow.

Hi,

You should not mix Cygwin and MinGW executables. You can have both 
Cygwin and MinGW installed at the same time by removing their respective 
bin directories from your Windows PATH environmental variable.

Also, the MinGW installer warns about placing make.exe under 
C:\MinGW\bin, you should move it to C:\msys\1.0\bin.

As far as groff in concerned, you can use the Gnuwin32 version and place 
the .exe programs in C:\msys\1.0\local\bin, don't forget the dep 
package, it contains the needed dlls. If you don't need the nasm docs, 
you can skip groff entirely, just don't let nasm configure find it (make 
sure "which groff" command doesn't point to it).

Building nasm should be straight forward ./configure && make.

Yes, agreed, nasm is needed but mplayer doesn't need it directly, lame 
and xvid needed it.

I'm running bash in Fedora Core 7  :-)

I don't even have a library path.  If I add it and run ldconfig then
mplayer runs, but I just get a black screen until I give up and kill
it.

Windows RC1 and dvdnav does not work, is there a setting to make the menus
appear?  Thank you in advance for any support.

mkey, I haven't any problem with dvdnav when I used libdvdnav2 from 
mplayer svn but when I downed libdvdnav, compiled it and installed it 
then mplayer config find it that it is version 4.1.1 but have no support 
for it:

Result is: no


But with libdvdnav2 I havent any problem - so?

Sorry, mplayer dvd:// works just fine when I changed out my DVD and it
works on my AVIs too.  mplayer dvdnav:// works as well as it ever has
(it shows the menu, but I can't do anything with it)  But at least I
can use mplayer again.

I made a script for myself which maybe you can find useful:
http://www.escomposlinux.org/rvm/temp/videopreview.tar.gz

Requires php4 (it's written in php), ImageMagick and mplayer.

You use it this way:

videopreview.php video.avi -tile 3x3 -o output_image.jpg

There are some other options:
 -step specifies the number of seconds that it should skip at the beginning of 
the video
 -w the width that the ouput image should have

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Audio filters (FIR / Noise reduction) for
	Mplayer/Mencoder ...?
Message-ID: <a2e74aa90709011720y6c43a534w74aa2713b6dca75c@mail.gmail.com>

Hello everyone.  I'm sending this email because I need some kind of
Noise reduction / FIR filter for Mplayer/Mencoder; is there any?


It has to be for (commandline) Mencoder, because no other software
I've tried is able to produce AVI files that play in my new MP4 player
(it needs a specific configuration: 22 fps, XviD, MP2 audio, and some
other things).

And I need that filter because I usually bump up the volume of my
converted files, since I'll end up watching those movies in a crowded
bus, on my way to work (and maxing out the volume produces a lot of
noise, of course).


With my old MP4 player (which only played "AMV" files), I used to
apply ffdshow filters (including FIR) on-the-fly, while converting,
since the conversion software (which only worked on win32) used
DirectShow. But Mencoder doesn't seem to have anything like that
filter.

I read that it can use LADSPA filters, but I don't know of any that
does what I need, and I guess it would be hard to configure anyway. So
I'm pretty much depending on you guys.


Greetings and thanks in advance,

Have you tried 'nailer' it is a C program that creates a preview of a
media file with film strip borders. You can get nailer from

I use just this document. Of course it "saves a time", but it can't help to
resolve the issue. The issue appears just when I follow to its suggestions!
And this is the only reason why I'm asking here! So, please everybody do not
advice "to read the howto". I'm already reading it... for a long time :(

Here are the lines where I'm getting the errors (described :in my initial
post):

As for cygwin removing and make.exe moving, OK, I'll check it all, and will
try to find nasm of the version 0.98.38. My user name in Mingv is Alex. So,
it has no blanks.

Thanks.

I had the same problem with libdvdnav-0.1.10, update to 0.1.11 
fixes this problem.

After reading few seconds of title 1, mplayer freezes.

I changed the DVD, (but still the same movie) but without any success.

I am using mplayer MPlayer 1.0rc1.
libdvdcss and libdvdread are installed.

Thanks.

No, even 4.1.1 works but it have featurless Makefile: it don't have 
"make uninstall" and "make distclean" don't cleanup as you can expect 
and after wrong "./configure2" you are forced to delete whole catalog 
and download it again to make good build.

It works now but I have strange mapping ;PPPp

Since I recently downloaded the latest and greatest dvdnav and mplayer
and my screen still didn't work right, I decided to try this fix.  I
get the proper screen, but nothing clicked with the mouse works.

/usr/local/etc/mplayer/config ?

I tried dvdnav://1 thru 13.  They all gave me different scenes,
extras, previews, etc.  I could get to the movie that way, but none of
them gave me the scene selection or setup windows.  FYI, "j" and "#"
didn't do much for me either.  No subtitles at all and the audio
selection only gave me unknown.

~/.mplayer/config   has
# Write your default config options here!

fs=yes
vf=screenshot
subfont-text-scale=3

and I don't have the /usr/local/etc/mplayer/config file

cat: /usr/local/etc/mplayer/config: No such file or directory

Thanks,
Jack

A slight correction.  The "j" and "#" keys DO work in dvdnav, if I
specify aid and sid first.

mplayer  dvdnav://10 -dvd-device /dev/scd0 -aid 129 -sid 1
will play the DVD, and allow me to change the audio and subtitles with
te keys, but won't give me the scene selection menu.  That's
dvdnav://1 and the mouse doesn't work.

Thanks again,
Jack

Well, just one step at at time: but what step are you stuck on?
nasm, lame, xvid, x264?

You can disregard some of the conventions you see in the HOWTO. It's kind of
old.
I'd leave out the drive names. I don't know if that's your problem, but the
current and testing mingw versions on the net don't require that you use
windows naming conventions for the drive letters.

./configure --prefix=/mingw

As for cygwin removing and make.exe moving, OK, I'll check it all, and will

If you want to verify your executables, just use the objdump program:

~ objdump -p /usr/bin/make-3.79.1.exe | grep "DLL Name"

That should show you which libraries your make program is actually using.
Shouldn't have any cygwin libraries: just KERNEL32.dll, msvcrt.dll

You can do the same with your gcc compiler
~ objdump -p /usr/bin/gcc.exe | grep "DLL Name"

I have to switch between make programs because some sources will not compile
with the newer make-3.81.exe. So I still use the original make-3.79.1.exe to
use with some of those sources.

Thanks.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] SVN compiling problem
References: <mailman.1208.1188670979.1664.mplayer-users@mplayerhq.hu>
Message-ID: <021b01c7ee03$18578550$1854000a@bibika>

Hi, All,

Finally I've resolved the nasm, etc. making problem:

-- I've removed cygwin\bin  from the PATH
-- I've checked the make.exe versions
-- I've renamed C:\MINGW\bin\make.exe to *.ex
-- I've renamed C:\MINGW\bin\mingw32-make.exe to *.ex

After these actions (I have C:\MSYS\bin\make.exe of version 3.79.1) all 
compilations look OK.

Nevertheless MPlayer making gives the next error and fails:
===================><8=====================
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `native/RTjpegN.o', needed by 
`libmpcodecs.a'.  Stop.

===================><8=====================

What could be the reason?

Appreciate it, if anybody will check my compilation logs at:

MPlayer ./configure screen output:
http://home.bokovikov.com/mplayer/configure.txt

MPlayer configure.log:
http://home.bokovikov.com/mplayer/configure.log

MPlayer make screen output:
http://home.bokovikov.com/mplayer/make.txt


Appreciate any help!

Thanks.

Are you sure? I only use them to receive streamed (audio and) video.

Sorry, you can't play the stream if your network connection is too slow.
(And there is no way to set the buffer if you are using live555)

That said, there are a few workarounds:
You can pause the stream with "p" the moment it starts: live555 library will 
continue to receive frames and they will be played back when you stop pause. 
Unfortunately, if you pause for too long, frames will get lost in live555's 
buffer.

You can play the stream once with -dumpvideo and once with -dumpaudio. The 
resulting files may be muxed afterwards.

Hi,
Please do avoid top posting if possible.

Check for the existence of libmpcodecs/native/RTjpegN.c . If the file is 
missing, your svn checkout is incomplete.

There might be something wrong with the makefile, try updating mplayer 
to the latest svn. Revision 24333 builds successfully using mingw.

The following is unrecommended but you may try to fix it by using the 
bellow command while in the libmpcodecs dir:

gcc -I../libavcodec -I../libavformat -Wdisabled-optimization -I. -I.. 
-I../libavutil -Wall -Wno-switch -Wpointer-arith -Wredundant-decls -O4 
-march=i486 -mcpu=i686 -pipe -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer 
-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE 
-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Ic:/mingw/include/freetype2 -Ic:/mingw/include   -c -o 
native/RTjpegN.o native/RTjpegN.c

After that continue by using "cd .. && make".

Hope that helps.

Hello,

Sorry, I use live555 to stream audio and video. Mplayer is used to receive
streamed auido and video.

>(And there is no way to set the buffer if you are using live555)

The network is LAN. So the network connection is fast enough. But
there exists jitter. So I want to use the cache in
order to play back the video more smoothly.
 I used the parameter "-cache xx -cache-min xx". But it does't work.

I'm not sure if this is still relevant, but I found a way to compile SVN on Mac
and fix the freetype problem.


Running:

./configure --with-freetype-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/freetype-config

fixed the problem for me. I have apple X11 installed, so I used their freetype.
This might be different for other people if their own version of freetype.


I hope this helps,
Sean

Hi, All,

I've downloaded the SVN-checkout-2007-09-03 and (after two miles of 
warnings) the make is finished and mplayer.exe and mencoder.exe are created. 
Previos SVN I downloaded, has missing file. Is it a normal situation (I'm 
about warnings large number)?

If you can, please check these logs, which I've got while making mplayer:
http://home.bokovikov.com/mplayer/mplayer-logs.zip

Especially it is interesting what are the lines in make-stderr.txt. There 
are some missing directories as well as a lot of warnings.

Also I've noticed, that mencoder, built from SVN, has different parameters 
list than RC1 one. Are these changes reflected in the docs, available at the 
website? If yes, then I'll definitely need to redownload the docs!

If anybody knows the correct command line to convert some format into FLV, 
please let me know a sample, because the old format (which included 
"i_certify_blah-blah-blah...") is obsolete now. Are there other changes 
here?

I can update the MINGW-HOWTO file, taking into account my recent experience, 
but I'd like to know, what version of packages should be used now, because 
the latest versions of some packages (like theora, nasm) are not built here. 
Can you, guys, let me know what exact versions of packages, mentioned in the 
HOWTO, are correct for mplayer building?

Personally I used the next:

libogg-1.1.3
libvorbis-1.1.2
libtheora-1.0-alpha4
libiconv-1.11
freetype-2.3.2
zlib-1.2.3
libpng-1.2.16
jpegsrc-v6b
libregif-4.1.7
nasm-0.98.39
lame-3.97
xvidcore-1.1.2
x264-svn-2007-04-02
live-2007-02-20

Appreciate it if you'll let me know what packages versions are correct now.

Thanks a lot to all, who helped me to understand what is my problem's 
origin!

check your man folders for mplayer.1 and mencoder.1 Should be present in
your compilation for the most recent documentation

Just use the latest that compiles and builds with mingw. Some of the latest
won't compile.

Personally I used the next:

> libregif-4.1.7
> nasm-0.98.39


 That's about the latest that will work. 98.39

lame-3.97


That's what I use

xvidcore-1.1.2




x264-svn-2007-04-02


 I use the  latest : svn  672

live-2007-02-20


live 2007 05 24 works

Appreciate it if you'll let me know what packages versions are correct now.


There's no really set answer as to what is correct. But I suspect new mingw
compilers would prefer to have an up-to-date HOWTO that would list the
latest working packages and list some of the more common pitfalls: e.g.
which version of make to use if the newer version fails, keeping spaces out
of the user name.

Hello *,

I'm new here. I plan to convert some SWF files (vector based) to mpeg4 or 
other format fully supported by mplayer. My intention is to use the Adobe 
Flash Player plug in to grab the frames and save them in one jpeg file each, 
and then to use mencoder to convert the jpeg files to a movie.

However before starting this kind of work I'd like to know a few things about 
mencoder and mplayer:
1. How long does it take approx to convert 30 seconds of jpegs into mpeg4 at 
800kbit/s and 30 fps, using a fairly slow CPU (Via C7 1GHz)?
2. Assuming 30fps and 30 seconds I should have 900 jpegs. Assuming I have, 
say, 1800 jpegs because the original swf had been made at 60pfs, is it 
possibile to ask mencoder to drop 30 fps, which is one frame every two?
3. What's the best quality/speed/fps tradeoff to have a decent mpeg4 playing 
smoothly with mplayer on a Via C7 1Ghz with Unichrome Pro IGP graphics 
adapter, openchrome drivers at 1024x768x32?

Thanks in advance,
Lucio.

If I had to guess, I'd say you can tune the options to make it take
anything between 20 and 2000 seconds.

That happens automatically when setting -mf fps to 60 and -ofps to 30,
but you might not like the result.
You can also use -vf framestep=2 (with -mf fps set to 30 I think).

I don't know how much this Unichrome model sucks, but on my old Athlon
800 I always had enough CPU left during MPEG4 decoding (though
resolutions were only around 720x576, but I'd expect it could have
handled 1024x768 as well).
But honestly, the only proper answer is: Try it out!

Yes. Apparently, keeping warnings to a minimum is not one of the developers' 
goals. You log file would hav been much larger if it recorded all the 
warnings, instead of just those generated during your final, successful 
attempt.

You can generate your output in a more useful format with:
make > make.txt 2>&1
This will redirect stdout and stderr to the same file, so that you can see 
the comand  followed by the warning or error message. That way you can be 
sure which command caused the message.

Something has gone wrong there. If you really want to find out what, you can 
run 'bash -x make > make.txt 2>&1'.
-x  Print commands and their arguments as they are executed.
In particular, you will see the values of variables used on the command 
line.

Assuming that the culprit is version.sh, it may be simpler to read it.

The documentation is generated daily from svn. It is possible to build the 
documentation with MinGW/MSYS, but a trick is necessary.

I do not have a proper procedure written down, but the following steps 
should work. See DOCS/xml/README for details on where to download the files.
Later versions may work, but these are the ones that I am using now.

1) Download and install (configure --enable-static --disable-shared 
--prefix=<your-usual-prefix>)
libxml2-2.6.27
libxslt-1.1.20

in that order, as libxslt depends on libxml2

2) Download docbook-xml-4.1.2. The trick is that, for some reason, xsltproc 
will not work properly if the path to the docbook files is an absolute one, 
e.g. /usr/share/sgml.... Instead, extract the ZIP file into DOCS/xml/usr, 
then edit configure so that it will find docbook in DOCS/xml/usr. In the 
configure script, whenever you see "Searching for ", add the path to the 
file in question, but write a *relative* path, i.e., usr/share/sgml

3) Do as above with dockbook-xsl. I am not sure which version I used, but 
the highest number I see here is 1.70.1

4) You *MUST* use make 3.80. Make-3.79.1 definitely does not work. There is 
a problem with make-3.81, but I do not remember what. Run

    make help

to see all available build targets and make your choice.

><cut> Can you, guys, let me know what exact versions of packages, mentioned

Listing only the versions that are more recent than yours:
libvorbis-1.2.0
libtheora-1.0-alpha7
freetype-2.3.4

I also use:
amrnb-6.1.0.3
amrwb-7.0.0.0
fontconfig-2.4.2
facc-1.25
gettext-0.16.1
libcdio-0.77
lzo-2.0.2
speex-1.2beta1
twolame-0.3.8
zlib-1.2.3

I have a few other multimedia libraries which  may be needed for ffpeg or 
something else, and not MPlayer.

Still trying to get my mplayer to work under xgl/compiz. I have
downloaded snapshot dated today and when compiling, i get this;
Checking for GUI ... yes

Error: The GUI requires libavcodec with PNG support.

Check "configure.log" if you do not understand why it failed.

I want mplayer to have gui support and play all video files (mpeg2, avi
and xvid) and audio files (mp3, lossless files and wav). I already have
MPlayer-1.0rc1try3-1.pm.1 rpm installed from packman site so why can't i
compile snapshot?

You need ping developer packages installed?

You need development packages installed. Not just runtime files. Read the
documentation on the required packages that you need installed. You might
want to compile and install the sources yourself instead of using your
distributions versions.

Hi,

Many of your libs are configured with --disable-shared. Have you 
considered using shared libs?

A bit OT, but how did you managed to get libregif? All I got was 404s, 
even going through TOR didn't help. Can you post it on a mirror?

Thanks.

The problem isn't the crappy graphics, it's the crappy underpowered
VIA CPU, which will perform more like a ~500MHz Athlon.

That's why hardware acceleration is so important for them, and they made
their own branch of Xine just to make sure Linux users could use it.

Are you suggesting that on a Via C7 I'm better off with Xine than mplayer?

According to some benchmarks I looked up it was a factor 4-5 times slower than
a Sempron 3400+ (xvid encoding was the test).
I'd think this puts it around the same level as the Athlon 800...
And graphics performance is a big issue, because a bad card means you
need easily more than twice the CPU power to play it.
Either way, MPEG-2 and xvmc is always still a possibility...

Hi!

I'm currently playing a bit with pulseaudio, one of the sound servers.
You can bind a RTP-sending sink to other sinks and I gave it a try,
but was unsuccessful to play such a stream with mplayer.

On the pulseaudio mailing list, I was told[1] that this just used to work
out of the box (mplayer rtp://224.0.0.56:46778), because the stream
content is put into the type descriptor. However, mplayer tries to
detect the stream type by content these days:

Any chance to force it to just use the type description, or to

Message-ID: <FAEC31C4478493479ED25051712DEBE86EF1B4@csecx01.netia-ad.local>

Hello, 

 

I am new here, excuse if my question is out of purpose.

 

Well, I'm trying to get an image at a given position but MPLayer always
extract first frame of the video...

 

Do you know what is wrong ? I'm using MPlayer 1.0pre8-3.4.2 on Windows
XP 32 bits.

 

Here is the commandline :

 

mplayer -ss 00:20:00 -vo jpeg -frames 1
"c:\temp\mplayerTools\avi_sample.avi"

 

mplayer should extract frame at 20 seconds, isn'it ? But I get the frame
of the beginning of the video...

 

I've tried on a mov, it's the same thing.

 

Do you know what is wrong ?

 

Thank you for your help !

 

Nelson

That surprises me: Does pausing playback for a moment help?

To quote myself: "there is no way to set the buffer if you are using live555"
Meaning: If MPlayer uses the live555 library to receive the stream, buffer size
cannot be set.

Allow me to add that it seems you tried none of the two suggestions I made
before.

What is wrong is that you are using a highly outdated version of
MPlayer. There is an official release more recent than 1.0pre8; for that
matter, it is recommended to use the latest development version rather
than the official release.

For a long time, there was a bug such that MPlayer would always give the
first frame of the movie first. If you use '-frames 2', then you should
get the first frame of the movie and the frame at 20 seconds.

This bug has, I seem to recall, been fixed. However, I do not think that
the fix was long enough ago that it would be included in the most recent
official release, 1.0rc1. If you want the fix (and many other
improvements!), you will need to obtain a copy of the latest development
source tree and compile it yourself. This will also help you if you want
to get help with MPlayer or MEncoder on these mailing lists.

For playback, particularly MPEG-4 playback performance, you are better
off with VIA's (unichrome-patched) fork of Xine.  I don't believe the
changes have made it back into vanilla Xine, but I could be wrong.

Seeking takes a few frames.  Just discard the first few.

I can't do it for some reason... I've got an error:

Have found them. That's OK. Though yet not installed them because of the 
below:

> 2) Download docbook-xml-4.1.2.

The only reference I've found leads to some file "docbookx412.tgz". Is it 
what I need? Also there is a link to some "docbook stylesheets". Should I 
install it too? Could anybody give me the direct link to the correct 
docbook's files?

I had a problem with theora alpha 7. A message appears, reporting an error 
of some type redeclaration (don't remember now it exactly), which is 
originally defined in libvorbis 1.1.2. Had you any issues with libvorbis 
1.2.0 + libtheora alpha7?

Also, (as you can see in my log, pointed above), theora and live are 
disabled for some reason. Why?

I don't need DLL's because I use MEncoder in another project. I use it not 
only for myself.

It was done a couple of months ago... Nevertheless you can find it here:

There is such a patched version of MPlayer as well, but the problems are
(unless something changed):
1) It is a heavily outdated version
2) The patches were never properly reviewed which usually means they are
quite buggy
3) The acceleration libs via uses only work as root, so you have to use
MPlayer as root.

As noted, 1.0rc1 is itself comparatively ancient (more than six months
old last time I looked, which was a while ago), and the fix if any would
be more recent than that.

I'm not intuitively familiar with it myself, since I've had no
particular reason to actually do it, but with a sufficiently up-to-date
installation of MinGW/MSYS and/or Cygwin it should be fairly close to
the same as compiling it under Linux. There exists a HOWTO on compiling
MPlayer under MinGW, but as has recently been noted hereabouts it is
apparently somewhat out of date.

Bash could not execute make, try 'bash -x make.exe > make.txt 2>&1'. 
Also are you using Vista by any chance?

The mingw installer recomends not placing make.exe under mingw, put it 
under msys instead.

I'm not really familiar with docbook, I'm still having problems getting 
it to work under mingw. The Cygwin version works without any problems, 
just fire up cygwin bash and build the docbooks from there.

Hi,

I removed "typedef unsigned long int ogg_uint64_t;" from lib/dsp.h to 
make it compile with ogg. Did you do the same?

You put the whole live555 dir as /usr/local/live. More info here:

http://www.live555.com/mplayer/

You may add --with-extraincdir=/path/to/live555 if the above does not 
solve your problem.

About the missing libtheora, for some reason configure did not pass 
-logg to gcc while testing linking to libtheora. Earlier header checks 
did not even specify libtheora.

You don't seem to have pkg-config, mplayer configure seems to make use 
of it for some of its autodetect routine. pkg-config makes checking for 
appropriate cflags and library dependency detection easy. pkg-config can 
be found here.

http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html

Put pkg-config.exe in your /mingw/bin dir. It requires the dlls from 
glib-2.12.13.zip and gettext-0.14.5.zip. You only need these runtime 
packages.

After that try recompiling libtheora, which also uses pkg-config so it 
finds libogg. Test libtheora by using the following command.

$ pkg-config --libs theora

It should return something like this.
-Lc:/mingw/lib -ltheora -logg

If it returns

Package theora was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `theora.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.

set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH to point to your libtheora install prefix 
libdir/pkgconfig, eg /mingw/lib/pkgconfig.

Well, its fine either way. Building a dll requires all undefined symbols 
to be resolved at compile time, ensuring the compile phase went 
correctly, all symbols expected from a library package is present and 
usable. Using dlls may cause further complications such as relocation 
address and base addresses, etc.

You can always remove the corresponding lib*.dll.a files so only static 
.a libs are used.

My mistake. That option is for running scripts, and make is not a script.
Look at the Makefile and see what it is trying to do. In my Makefile 
(Jul-10-2007), I have:

# rebuild at every config.h/config.mak/Makefile change:
version.h: config.h config.mak Makefile
	./version.sh `$(CC) -dumpversion`
CC shoud be equal to gcc, so type the following at the command line:
bash -x ./version.sh `gcc -dumpversion`
and you should get a better idea about what it is trying to do. On my 
system, I get the following output:

$ bash -x ./version.sh
+ test ''
++ LC_ALL=C
++ svn info
++ grep Revision
++ cut '-d ' -f2
+ svn_revision=24064
+ test 24064
+ test 24064
+ test 24064
+ NEW_REVISION='#define VERSION "dev-SVN-r24064"'
++ cat version.h
+ OLD_REVISION='#define VERSION "dev-SVN-r24064-4.2.1-sjlj"

Since you are having problems, I won't try to compile the current svn right 
now, although I suppose that I could easily revert to my working version.

I think so.

I think that the stylesheets are in docbook-xsl-xxx

Good question. If I encountered that error, I may have "fixed" it by using 
#ifdef or something, but I don't remember.

Perhaps you did not follow exactly the instructions for installing LIVE555. 
It is explained here:
http://www.live555.com/mplayer/
Also from the log, I see that configure was looking for LIVE in
-Ic:/mingw/include/freetype2/liveMedia/include

As for theora, you said that you had a problem with theora, so if theora was 
not built, then naturally support for theora will be disabled.

Try adding

Don't know why, but leaving that out seems to keep it from working.

Try

DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="--enable-gui --enable-menu" fakeroot debian/rules binary

Should build your own debian package

This answers how to compile it, but I would also be interested
in the other things he asked for. I did'nt bother to install
dvdnav because I couldn't find any info on it's usage and
configuration.

there's nothing to configure: you just have to run mplayer with
-mouse-movements to enable the item selection by means of
the mouse, or just leave it always set in your config file: 
~/.mplayer/config

mouse-movements=1

As for the rest dvdnav:// will accept -alang and -slang like dvd://

I've got this:

$ bash -x ./version.sh `gcc -dumpversion`

+ extra=-3.2.3
++ LC_ALL=C
++ svn info
++ grep Revision
++ cut '-d ' -f2

+ echo '#define MP_TITLE "MPlayer dev-SVN-rUNKNOWN-3.2.3 (C) 2000-2007

Assuming that "3.2.3" is my gcc version, I can suppose that something is 
wrong in gcc version. What version is correct now?

I've done it and now it goes upto the end, but some errors appear:

dump_video.o:dump_video.c:(.text+0xb45): undefined reference to 
`gettimeofday'
dump_video.o:dump_video.c:(.text+0xb63): undefined reference to 
`gettimeofday'
dump_video.o:dump_video.c:(.text+0xb6d): undefined reference to 
`gettimeofday'

What could be the reason?

Thanks.

Hi,

You can try updating your mingw install with the latest win32api and 
mingw-runtime.

Go to http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435 and 
download the following files.
w32api-3.10.tar.gz
mingw-runtime-3.12.tar.gz

Unpack them to C:\mingw.
You should probably update gcc to 3.4.2.

The new mingw runtime has gettimeofday.
Hope that helps.

Note that svn_revision = <blank>. It seems that 'svn info' did not work. If 
you run 'svn info', what do you get? Is svn in your path?

Your gcc version is OK, although as the other poster said, you need to 
update the MinGW runtime to get gettimeofday.

Seems that aclocal is out of date in mingw. Cygwin's is not that recent; but
it works.

dvdnav checked out from svn will compile as follows with mingw:

(1). Check out the source
      svn co svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/dvdnav/trunk/libdvdnav

(2). Change into the source directory and use Cygwin to generate a configure
file:
      ./autogen.sh

(3). Run configure, make, and make install as normal from mingw

The only problem I encountered was that I had to use make version 3.79.1 to
compile the source after running ./configure.      make-3.81 gave me errors.

Wouldn't it be easier/better to update aclocal?

Well, that depends. If you want to download, compile, and install automake
(includes aclocal). But if you already have Cygwin
...................................

But I wasn't sure that it would compile on MingW. It does. Now have aclocal
and automake 1.9 on MingW.

Automake and friends are scripts, so they are almost bound to work as long 
as you have perl or whatever it is that runs them.

sorry Carl, it is my fault. There are problems with the server. The server
sent
the video not at 25 frames per second. So the playing back is not smoothly.

*However, it would be fine if the buffer can be set when we are using
live555.:-)
Thanks for your advice and help.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] DVB streaming buffering
Message-ID: <08d601c7f094$3096e550$120ba8c0@es>


Hello. I have a kinda difficult problem here
so I appreciate any input.

I am using a PC sat receiver with skystar2 and m-audio (pci audio card).
I play streaming satellite radio using mplayer and arts.
I need arts in order to easily mix audio files stored locally and satellite
 radio.

 All this works just fine. However, when the satellite reception is not good
over some period of time
and gets back to good, I always have a delay (buffering) of 5-10 seconds on
the streaming radio as compared to a Neta.

 My tests showed that mplayer is the culprit and not arts, since I have the
 problem even without arts.
I also modified the size of the buffer in the
 /MPlayer-1.0rc1/stream/stream_dvb.c
but the problem persists.

 Moreover, when I cut sat reception for a long period (say 5-10 minutes),
 mplayer hangs and the streaming audio
does not restores itself when I restart mplayer having reconnected the sat
 reception beforehand. In order for the streaming audio to work again I have 
to
unload/reload b2c2 drivers and then mplayer.

 Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

	I was happily using mplayer 1.0rc1 together with live555 package.

Right now I wanted to build the newest version of mplayer so I have 
downloaded mplayer-checkout-snapshot.tar.bz2 (dated 06-09-2007) from the 
ftp side since I can not use the svn (due to my side restriction).

I have noticed that there are some changes in the configurations and some 
switches are not accepted:

With the previous version I was using the following configuration:

./configure  --with-codecsdir=/usr/lib/codecs/ --enable-live --with-livelibdir=`pwd`/live

Right now I can not use the switches: --with-codecsdir --with-livelibdir

How to specify then the location of codes and live555 package?

Best Regards

Mirek

Please do not use --enable-live (or, if you use it, don't report problems)!
If autodetection does not work although you are using
--with-extraincdir=`pwd`/live, please report.

Additionally, --with-codecsdir=/usr/lib/codecs should not be necessary.

I believe they suggest just moving the whole live directory to /usr/lib/
after you have run make.

mv -fv live /usr/lib/


When you do this you don't have to use any extra options: live555 should be
automatically detected..

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Digital Photo Frame possibly using MPlayer
Message-ID: <1189107173.28779.1.camel@localhost.localdomain>

I recently bought a Denver DPF-407 digital photo frame:
http://www.denver-electronics.com/pages/webside2.asp?articleGuid=30989

On the main board of it I found a JTAG connector and managed to do a
full memory dump while it was running.
The dump contains funny little strings like this:

VIDEO:  [%.4s]  %ldx%ld  %dbpp  %5.3f fps  %5.1f kbps (%4.1f kbyte/s)
64bit file, but you've compiled MPlayer without LARGEFILE support!
Please contact MPlayer authors, and upload/send this file.
*** constant samplesize & variable duration not yet supported!
***Contact the author if you have such sample file!

At the moment I'm in contact with the company, which is doing the import
of this digital photo frame in order to have their version of the story.

Wording was wrong here. Pulseaudio implements RTP over multicast, as
well as SAP announcements.  The impression[1] on the pulseaudio mailing
list is that RTP's payload type field shouldn't be ignored. Indeed,
libavformat (Debian source package) seems to contain tables to decode
the payload type (which is 10 in this case) in
./libavformat/rtp.c:rtp_get_codec_info() .  However, this function is
only referenced in ./libavformat/rtsp.c:sdp_parse_line(), which is
used to read a SDP block dumped to a text file.  I just tried to
locate a good place to put another call to rtp_get_codec_info() to,
but it was somewhat hard following the initialization procedure in
such a large main() function...

mplayer keeps on reading from the dvr0 device up to a maximum of
5 consecutive read errors (using a poll-based mechanism, thus with
non-blocking reads), thus I tend to blame the driver for not
signaling either the read error or the right poll status

Message-ID: <80d985600709071642r183cc957s7c267998b6e9fe71@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I have an entry for mplayer in ~/.lircrc.I just set up an IR receiver +
remote and the lirc software and all of it is working correctly. Now I am a
bit unsure how to get mplayer to work with lirc and I read the documents
page (Docs:Control). On that page it says:

"If you have the LIRC package installed, configure will autodetect it. If
everything went fine, MPlayer will print "Setting up LIRC support..." on
startup."

I am not sure what this means. There doesn't seem to be a flag such as
"mplayer -configure". Can anyone elaborate on what I am supposed to do with
mplayer?

I believe you're supposed to compile the source code. When you run
./configure from the root directory to compile the source code, then mplayer
will compile the files necessary to take advantage of lirc. It should detect
that you have lirc up and running when you run ./configure.

Hello,
this should be done in reverse order:

CFLAGS="my extra cflags" ; ./configure

Otherwise, you try to pass a parameter for configure script.

Without the ; unless CFLAGS is exported.

i.e.

export CFLAGS="-someflag"
./configure

or

CFLAGS="-someflag" ./configure

Hi,

Thank you for your info.
How to provide FLV video support to mplayer?

Actually my requirement is i need to play .swf or Flash format files
in mozilla web browser which is DirectFb backend. I could not find any
flash players having DirectFb support.

I am using Mplayer which is having DirectFb backend. I thought if i
can play swf or other flash format files in mplayer then with the help
of mplayer-mozilla-plugins i can play these flash files in mozilla
browser.

If u have any idea how to play flash fles using flash player with
directfb or with mplayer with directfb backend.

Thanks,
Sreenivas

SWF files are not a video. That is an animation format. Neither ffmpeg nor 
MPlayer can play SWF. Why not to use usual Macromedia/Adobe players to play 
SWF? Also there are many tools, converting SWF to MPEG/AVI, etc. You can use 
them and play the result by MPlayer.

HTH!

Although I am able to play flash animations fine using either the Adobe

mplayer and its web plugin, I need to play some weird animations 
embedded in Quicktime files.

See:
http://www.indiana.edu/~anat550/cvanim/htube/htube.html

Mplayer identifies and opens the container, but reports "no stream found".

Any chance of making this work?

If not, is there any other way I can extract the flash animations out 
directly?

Thanks,
Austin

I distinctly remember an earlier release of Mplayer being capable of
playing SWF files.  Can you point us to some SWF converters?

As I've already written: MPlayer can play SWF if, and only if it contains
FLV video.

Use a (hex-)editor and remove everything before "FWS".
The only other way I know of is
http://sourceforge.net/projects/extractor-gtk/
but that's somewhat overkill (esp. since I'm not sure if the user

Only FLV videos can be played by MPlayer, not normal Flash animations. 
If you're having a problem with FLV try upgrading to latest SVN before
reporting a problem (and then provide the verbose -v output).

Today I tried to play a dvd in windows with this command:

mplayer.exe -dvd-device E: dvd://1

But it failed:

But if I use -dvd-device E:/ instead of -dvd-device E: then it plays.

This dvd was created by my dvd-recorder. I tried then with another disc also 
created by dvd-recorder a few days ago. The strange thing is that this disc 
plays with both E: and E:/. Tried also with a commercial dvd and plays too 
with E: and E:/

So why doesn't the first disc play with E:? What's the difference between 
using E: or E:/?

Tried on linux, and this time the disc plays with -dvd-device /dev/dvd but not 
when using -dvd-device /dev/dvd/

I also realized that when trying to play in Windows a dvd from a folder in 
hard disc (passing the directory where VIDEO_TS is), it works if the path 
doesn't end in "/" but fails if it does.

Hi all,

I recently moved to Fedora 7 with my new 64bit machine. Unfortunately when I
tried to run mplayer with a real audio stream the program hangs. This is
what i got...

Does anybody have any idea what is going on? I can play the same link in
RealPlayer... no problem there. Mplayer can also play local videos and
windows media streams. I am wondering if there is any problem with the 64bit
architecture. I installed also the player through the source code and the
freshrpm repositories and obtained basically the same result.

I really appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks.

Please do not mix SWF and FLV. The first is an animation format, and it has 
no relation to MPlayer. The second is a streaming video/audio format, and 
MPlayer can play it, whereas MEncoder can encode it. As for SWF to Video 
converters, just open download.com - Flash tools, and you'll see some tools 
like SWF2Video or Flash2Video or something like that. Or just try to search 
in Google for "SWF2Video". There are a lot of such converters. All of them 
snap SWF movie frame-by-frame and convert resulting bitmaps into MPEG. As a 
result, 100 KB SWF is converted into 100 MB AVI :-)

Unfortunately, native Adobe player can't play FLV for some reason. 
Nevertheless there are a lot of custom FLV players, which are SWF movies, 
opening FLV stream, and playing it in a window. I also have my own (very 
simple in GUI) FLV player in Windows EXE format, but it's working in MS 
Windows only of course. FLV players in SWF format are platform-independent.

HTH!

Subject: [MPlayer-users] [Bug]:? Flash Video VP6 playback: "alternative
 entropy decoding not supported"
Message-ID: <46E3BF40.9000901@datenparkplatz.de>

Hi!


I'm using the latest SVN version of MPlayer compiled and running on an
AMD64 machine under Kubuntu Feisty AMD64 with a vanilla Linux 2.6.22.1
kernel.

If I go to:

> > http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer9/fullscreendemo/

and choose and download (e.g. copying the file directly from the browser
cache after buffering is complete) the H.264-version of the sample
video, it plays normally in MPlayer.

But if I choose the VP6-version, the video starts to play, but after the
first seconds of playing, the image gets crippled, and the following
error message is repeated frequently:

> > [vp6f @ 0xe9a440]alternative entropy decoding not supported.5% 4 0

I've attached the output of "mplayer -v adobeDemoOn2.flv &>
mplayerCmdLineOutput.txt". Two sample screenshots of the distorted video
can be found under:

> http://datenparkplatz.de/bilder/screenshot1.png
> http://datenparkplatz.de/bilder/screenshot2.png


Is this behaviour a bug or simply a missing feature or wrongly
encoded video file?

Ulrich

I can play with -dvd-device E:/. The thing is that it seems that some discs 
play with -dvd-device E: while others require -dvd-device E:/. I don't 
understand why.

Must be some kind of bug.

No doubt an unsupported feature in the ffvp6 codec.  Assuming you have
MPlayer compiled as a 32-bit binary, perhaps adding  -vc vp6 will work.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] TGA output (-vo tga) buckels sometimes
Message-ID: <46E46728.9000507@indiecam.com>

Hi,

I'm using mplayer to decode a rtsp stream (enabled live555 when compiling) to a 
sequence of tga files with the -vo option.

Everythings working fine, but the output frames are bucking a little bit. 
Sometimes more, sometimes less. Bucking means that the mtime of the files varies 
a little bit ;-(

mplayer -cache 65536 rtsp://192.168.0.2/mpeg4/media.amp -fps 25 -vo tga

I tried different cache sizes, even no cache, but no change.

Has someoune any idea?
Or is this more a live555 problem?


Viewing the same stream with vlc works fine with a constant frame rate.

Thanks Johann

Well in first look you need this is quotes. either that or \ the &.
That is the reason you see the two lines underneath. It is trying to
span processes of mplayer and of proto=rtsp then try to run the
command rbnkey=1

Also it doesn't look like you leave the full mplayer output. It will
typically go past the part where it complains about no remote.

Hi,


I've compiled mplayer under the "native" 64-bit-environment.

For further testing, I've set up a small 32-bit-chroot and installed the
mplayer binary included in my distribution together with the latest
"essential" binary codecs package from mplayerhq.hu.

With this setup, "mplayer -vc vp6 ..." doesn't play the video at all.


Because I consider playback of this video format less important for me,
especially after Adobe's recent commitment to H.264, I think I'll
dispense with a more complete examination. I'd have to install a
complete 32-bit build environment for that.

Of course, if someone wants to look into this and needs more information
or testing, I'll be happy to help as much as I can.


Best wishes,
Ulrich

Mplayer will play flv's but you would need to get the flash player
plugin from adobe to play swf's.

Folks,

I'm looking for some help setting up a system that needs to just continuously 
play video clips in a loop.

I need to be able to start them at boot... and change the playlist if you like 
by uploading new files remotely to the system.

I need to know when a new one starts so I can log some information about it.

Can someone give me some clues as to the best way to do this?

Not sure if I should use a play list and just change it from under mplayer, or 
run a script that just loops through files in a directory... any input 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Peter Nunn

swf is proprietary format that can only be played with adobe's flash
player plugin. There are converters that will take a swf and convert
it into a video format but it would be much larger.

flv's are video files that use an swf player online to play them.
mplayer or ffmpeg can play flv's.

mplayer or ffmpeg are unable to play swf's.

Use the slave more. It's explained in DOCS/tech/slave.txt (from the

Or, if you want a script here's a quickie I wrote in Perl for my Linux
system.  Perl came with the O/S.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

while(1) {
    `mplayer *.wmv`;
}

while(1) is an infinite loop that loops over all of the WMV files in
the directory you run the script in, in alphabetical order.  You could
also add more mplayer lines between the curly brackets and make it an
actual playlist in any order you want.  Don't know how familiar you
are with scripts (or even what O/S you're running) but in Unix you
would create the script, naming it something like "repeat", make it
executable

chmod 755 repeat

and run it by

./repeat

Since it's an infinite loop, you'll have to break it to get it to
stop.  Ctrl-C worked for me.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] How to cyclic switch Audio with LIRC ?
Message-ID: <fc0q8a$k9n$1@sea.gmane.org>

Hi *

I have problem witch configuring LIRC to cycle switching DVD audio tracks.

I put following statement into LIRCRC file:

begin
   prog = mythtv
   button = audio
   config = #
end

Pressing "#" key on keyb switches audio, but pressing audio key on 
remote doesn't. Remote is working OK - I tested audio key with other 
mplayer command.
I think it is problem of "#" char - which is interpreted by LIRCD as 
comment sign - not char to be passed to mplayer.
How can I then configure LIRC to pass "#" key to mplayer ?


thx in advance for help

I recently installed Mplayer to be able to play some CDs I have with 
.avi files.

The program found the file, but when I tried to open it I got the 
following message:

"Error opening/initializing the selected viod-out (-vo) device."

So following the instructions I found in the help section, I did the 
following at command line and got the result:

First of all, if this is copied string, it's quite strange (typo). Anyway it 
doesn't give any informations for us. Please provide full "mplayer -v 
played_file"
where played_file is your file.

You should first test outputs xv, next x11 and xover. Later try gl2 or sdl. Of 
course first output should be "correct" in most cases, if not send verbose 
output.
Anyway, try to compile current SVN, rc1 is... an antique?? If you don't know 
how, google for it, you will need devel packages from libs. Good luck!

Try mplayer -vo xv file-to-play.mpg

If this doesn't work post the full output.

I suggest you ask on the LIRC lists, since your problem has nothing to
do with MPlayer.

This actually works:

$ mplayer -demuxer rawaudio -rawaudio channels=2:rate=44100:samplesize=2:format=0x10001 rtp://224.0.0.56:46520

However, it was somewhat hard to find the correct value for the
`format' parameter. This value is from libavcodec/avcodec.h, maybe
there's an easier way to find it?

Message-ID: <200709102059.22826.flessard@novacom.qc.ca>

Hi !

I am building a looping video server on Ubuntu 7.04 server using the provided 
apt mplayer package (since it is at 1.0rc1) My project has to ;

- output fullscreen TV out (overscan did not work yet)
- fully controllable remotely by ssh
- fully automated, being able to play for weeks in row.

I use "screen" as root to start mplayer with this exact command

mplayer -vo fbdev -double -vf 
crop=640:480:40:0 -playlist /mymedia/mylist -loop 0

This project is working almost perfectly for hours (10+) then the sound goes 
out ! mplayer complains about too many open files. Using lsof, i found out 
that mplayer creates a new line like below, each times a video plays. After 
many loops, i belive the system is getting saturated by those : 

mplayer   4816   root   40w      CHR        5,0                4915 /dev/tty
mplayer   4816   root   41w      CHR        5,0                4915 /dev/tty
mplayer   4816   root   42w      CHR        5,0                4915 /dev/tty
mplayer   4816   root   43w      CHR        5,0                4915 /dev/tty
mplayer   4816   root   44w      CHR        5,0                4915 /dev/tty

Is there any way to fix this behavior ? I have tried to run mplayer out of 
screen, still the same error. 

Any advice ? 

Thanks 

Francis

Well, the gnash devels had this to say:

Personally, doesn't it seem more logical to have mplayer handle the 
quicktime container, but call libgnash to decode and play the animation, 
than to have gnash learn to open quicktime files?  I mean, even for mime 
type simplicity?

Thanks to the help of Gullaume and Jack I've got closer to where I need to be 
with this scripting problem I'm having.

I've managed to get a script running as....

#!/bin/bash

loop=1
while [ $loop -gt 0 ]; do
        for X in ../Download/*.mp4
        do
                ./getfix
                echo $X>>fixlog
                #mplayer -vo xll -really-quiet -noboarder -fs $X
                mplayer -vo x11 -really-quiet -noborder -fs echo $X 
&>/dev/null
        done
        #for debugging
        echo $loop>>fixlog
        let loop=loop+1
done

which happily plays and logs the files in the directory.  However, between 
each movie, it drops back briefly to the background screen which I can't let 
happen.

So.. I started looking at slave mode.

I used the command line

mplayer -fs -fixed-vo -slave -idle -input file=/home/pnunn/.mplayer/pipe

after creating the pipe and by sending a file to the pipe with

 echo "loadfile /home/pnunn/Download/robot-chicken-gummy-bear.mp4 1" 
> /home/pnunn/.mplayer/pipe

the first file plays just fine.  When it ends, the screen stays up and I 
thought I was nearly there.

however, when I send another file to the pipe, it plays in a small window in 
the top corner of the screen (not full screen).. also, I need a way for the 
script to be able to determine when the playing file has finished so that it 
can log the information I need and start the next one.

Any more ideas please... I really need to get this last bit sorted soon...

I'll keep digging too.

Thanks so much.

Peter.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] DVB streaming buffering
Message-ID: <018601c7f44b$588feba0$120ba8c0@es>

Hello.
I use skystar2 and mplayer to play sat streaming radio.
Due to the buffers used by linux-dvb drivers and mplayer
I have a variable delay on my sat streaming radio as compared to a Neta
which seems to be buffer-free.

Is it possible to downsize these buffers? How?
Thanks.

Xembed is an unacceptable hack. If gnash can decode into a memory
buffer, frame by frame it is possible, but it will still be extremely
ugly since the flash data is _not_ in a video stream but in a "generic
track" one...

There is no need to make it learn Quicktime files, it must only be
extended to handle files that have trash before the flash data - in the
simplest case that can be done by brute-force searching for the string
"FWS".

Hi,

 I am having unexpected trouble saving the following streaming

http://movies.apple.com/movies/wb/the_brave_one/the_brave_one-tlr1_480p.mov

 using the following version of mplayer:

Compiled for x86 CPU with extensions: MMX MMX2 SSE SSE2

with the all-20061022 codecs installed. I have tried several differemt
types of syntax as well as banging my head on the keyboard, but I
thought the following basic syntax should work at least:

mplayer -dumpstream filename.mov

I would be grateful for some advice on this one,

Thanks for the solution to this puzzle which has obviously little to
do with mplayer :-)

My apologies I did not realise this. As an mplayer noob I shall

I built
1) swfdec-0.5.1 - Flash player dependant on GTK. I am able to play

After launching firefox Mozilla firefox detecting plugins. But it was
unable to play flash content of any URL.

Can any one have idea How to solve this issue.

You'd better ask on swfdec mailing list. None of your problems are
MPlayer-related.

Hi,


if the SWFs only contain flash video, mplayer can play it in some cases.

For example, I was able to view some of the sample trailers from this

Unfortunately your sample consists only of black frames so I can't
check if the colours are correct, but it plays with attached patch.

I ran into the same problem and have some more information that may help
you. Playing back raw IYUV ASF files worked fine in 1.0pre8-3.4.2, and it
seems the problem occurred in the software scaler subsequently. I can send
you sample video files, or you can make your own by encoding to Uncompressed
with Windows Media Encoder (I was making screen captures but I don't think
it matters).

Following are the two output listings (on Windows) for 1.0pre8-3.4.2 and
1.0rc1-3.4.2 respectively. I don't have the facilities to build your patch
for Windows, so if somebody could direct me to a build containing it, I
would be overjoyed.

Send a sample or get a build of revision 24436 or later (which should at
least make it play again, though not sure if the colours will be right).

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Strange problem when merging two avi
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.62.0709121629040.8143@localhost.localdomain>


Hi all,

I have a strange problem when merging two avi.
First, let me say that the two files have the same parameters: both are 
produced from two quicktime clips produced by my videocam using the 
commands

mencoder -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr -ovc lavc -lavcopts
   vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=3000:vpass=1:mbd=2:trell:v4mv:autoaspect:cmp=3:subcmp=3:mbcmp=3
   -demuxer lavf -ffourcc DIVX    in.mp4 -o out.avi

mencoder -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr -ovc lavc -lavcopts
   vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=3000:vpass=2:mbd=2:trell:v4mv:autoaspect:cmp=3:subcmp=3:mbcmp=3
   -demuxer lavf -ffourcc DIVX    in.mp4 -o out.avi

Done this, I merge the two 1.avi 2.avi with

mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy -o 1-2.avi 1.avi 2.avi

Well, what happens is that when I look the merged file 1-2.avi, then in 
the point where the two files join for a few seconds the second one looks 
somewhat "corrupted", like if it where taken with a much lower resolution. 
After 3-4 seconds, then it looks good again.

What can I do?

Another try I did, is to use avimerge to merge the two files, but then the 
second one gets the audio out of sync, and I couldn't resolve this.
I have seen this is a FAQ, but I didn't find an answer for my case...  :-(((

Thanks a lot

Fabio

Subject: [MPlayer-users] .TY+ parsing / junk data not skipped over
Message-ID: <9da483cb0709121730j25a69a4fsa799c509b9e3b03c@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I have been miffed for months (a year almost) about playing locally
downloaded .ty+ files from my tivo.  These were transferred using
mfs_ftp, and for the most part play fine.  Except when there
apparently is a segment change (the tivo uses multiple file segments
for recording a show) mplayer apparently plays "junk" that exists in
the .ty file, but it seems should just be skipped over.

This means, that you can watch a movie rather well for about an hour
(on my directv series 2 tivo) and after that, you get about a half
second blip of some other show/some other shows audio, and then it
tiles back into the movie where it left off.

I have, upon the suggestion of someone on the DealDatabase forums,
converted these .ty+ files to mpeg files, and indeed the 'junk' is not
present; the movie plays fine.

What would you need for me to provide to show you what is happening?
(The best i have is a 1gig file thats 1 hour long, at minute 56 it
blips).  I could camcorder it blipping for you, or somehow send you
the last bit of the file if you wanted (using dd/skipping bytes)

On what platform did you run mplayer? What version was your mplayer?
Which avi file caused this problem? Did you use any hwac3 or hwdts
config parameters?

This works, but the freetype version is old enough so ass will not be supported.
X11 seems useless for OS 10.4.* users, so to compile a mplayer will
full features, I renamed the X11 directories and use --disable-x11
flags to configure. Also, I installed freetype with macports, and add
following flags for configure:
--with-freetype-config=/opt/local/bin/freetype-config
--with-extraincdir=/opt/local/include
--with-extralibdir=/opt/local/lib

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Correct syntax pcm:fast pcm:file=filename?
Message-ID: <20070913042601.GA27205@ilium.lan>

Hi,

 I am downloading and saving a real audio stream using:

andrew at ilium:~$ mplayer
MPlayer dev-SVN-r24430-4.0.3 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team
and codecs all-20061022

using the following syntax:

mplayer -playlist address.ram -ao pcm:file=filename.wav -vo null -vc
null

But mplayer when running this command advises also -ao pcm:fast to
increase speed of audio dump. Can I ask 2 questions:

1. Will this actually yield any _real_ increase when dumping a Real
Audio stream?

2. What is the syntax if I already have pcm:file=filename.wav? I have
experimented with this a little and failed.

Thanks for your trouble,

   Andrew

Platform: Ubuntu 7.04/AMD64
MPlayer version: 1.0~rc1

This is a DTS 5.1 video clip which stops after a few seconds with a 
fatal error: MPlayer interrupted by signal 11 in module:decode_audio

I am not attempting DTS with SPDIF passthrough, but am trying direct 
analog DTS output.

Btw, Totem is able to play the clip, while there is no sound on VLC.

Thanks

Pressing "q" will exit mplayer giving a return code of zero.  Is there
anything that will exit with a non-zero return code?  I'd like to use
it in a calling program.

Thanks,

Send a sample or get a build of revision 24436 or later (which should at
least make it play again, though not sure if the colours will be right).

Can you put your whole mplayer output before the signal 11.
The clip you said, is it a avi file?

I compile with freetype 6.3.16, it all works. Install it in /usr/

True, I just thought that if there was no way of properly splitting
the file, that a demonstration would help somewhat.  I do
troubleshooting work personally, and am somewhat of a nitpicker/detail
noticer; for me, actually seeing the result usually helps me
immensely.

OK, I just was not entirely sure that the stream would still be
playable if i just chopped it at some random byte, as opposed to a
sequence split/GOP split/ whatnot.
I'll test this and then upload it to the public FTP.

Plays without problems with latest SVN (at least on linux, but I doubt
Windows will be any different in this case ;-)).

File is uploaded.  "test-dtivo-junkskip.ty+"

I am noticing a slight effect of me making the file so small; there is
severe desync with the audio at the beginning that sloooooowly
corrects itself over time.  It doesn't have time within this 5 meg
file to correct before the blip happens.  Also curious if this is this
a known issue (large audio desync in ty demuxing) and if so, are there
any ways to fix it?

That's great news. Well done on your fix. Do you know of anybody reliably
maintaining complete Windows builds of the latest SVNs (or at least
providing a build of revision 24436 you mentioned earlier) that you can
point me to? The builds mentioned on the projects page seem either out of
date and/or fragmented.

Kind regards,
Francois

Plays without problems with latest SVN (at least on linux, but I doubt
Windows will be any different in this case ;-)).

I try to transcode aac stream to mp3, but i have trouble: when mplayer
out sound to soundcard, all works fine, but when I try to send
raw-output to lame, encoding work with a jerks: mplayer recieve some
portion of a stream (~2sec) and freeze (~0.5sec), and it's repeated and
repeated. I use construction "mplayer->lame->ezstream" to send encoded
mp3 stream to icecast, and in freeze time i listen noise. I try to use
-cache and -cache-min with no effect. Where is a bug?

Maybe your processor just isn't fast enough to do this in real time? "-q 
0" is the highest quality/most
cpu intensive choice in lame. Try "-q 9". If that works, just keep 
decreasing the q value until you get
the best compromise between quality and cpu usage.

Well, rewrite the demuxer to make it less of a mess?
You could help with this by
1) providing also the first 4 MB or so of a .ty file
2) Do the same for a .tmf file
because currently our samples server doesn't seem to contain even a
single sample, which makes it near impossible to fix things without
having it break left and right.

Lame doesn't know how to encode MPlayer's banner, status line, and all
the other junk it's writing to stdout interleaved with your raw PCM
data.

I recomend using a fifo instead.

Even when I try to record stream in a local wave file, mplayer buffer
stream, write data without jecks (~3sec), but after this i see:
mplayer buffering stream 2 sec, quickly write downloaded stream to file,
repeat 2sec-buffering, repeat fast write. Looks like, in this point
mplayer work not in a real-time, but in "long buffering - fast write"
style, althought I need decoding on-the-fly.

I have a (reencoded, the original I don't have anymore) AVI file, where 
I have 1:02:12 of Audio and 1:02:06 of video.

When joining this file with the next file, which is again in perfect 
synch, I use avimerge, but with neither -c or no modifier at all the 
additional audio is dropped. Is there a way to do this (with mencoder, 
instead of avimerge, since its man page only talks about audio too 
short, which is not a real issue)

I assume that the cache you specify is big enough to permit a smoot
playback. If not a stop is normal.

Apart from that, you can use the command line in this way in order to
feed properly the raw audio stream to lame (requires bash or a bourne
compatible shell):

mplayer <options> -vc null -vo null \
  -ao pcm:nowaveheader:file=/dev/fd/4 4>&1 >&2 | lame <options> ....

For even faster decoding replace -vc null with -vc dummy.
-vc dummy may not work all the times, but in this case it should.

Ciao
Giacomo

If I give the file the "channels 6" switch, the sound is a barely

Any ideas?

Hi,

I have two Fedora6 machines. One is named server with IP address 
169.254.15.100/16. The other's hostname is workstation with IP address of 
169.254.15.53/16. They can ping each other. My mplayer is v1.0rc1. I can 
play video files (.avi or .MPG) locally on workstation. 

But my goal is to steam the video from this simple network. That is to 
start mplayer on workstation with video file being saved in server. 

The video file (test.MPG) is saved in the server at 
/root/video

On workstation, I typed
mplayer http://server:80/root/video/test.MPG

I got 
Connecting to server 169.254.15.100 [169.254.15.100]:80...
Connect error: Connection refused
File note found '//server:80/root/video/test.MPG'
Failed to open http://server:80/root/video/test.MPG
Existing ...

I got the same error "conenction refused" when I used
mplayer rtsp://...
mplayer ftp://...

I logged on using root.

I have no firewall or any security enabled on any machines. Would you 
please help me?

Thanks,
Frank

I don't think that's the point.
Actually, on this list, full quoting (including long mail headers), not using
">" for quotes is considered as rude as breaking threads (what I do myself from
time to time, and you did it when writing this mail) and that's something else
than "generally not prefered" - at least IMHO.

Except for breaking threads, you can and are expected to manually fix your mails
before sending to this list (and hope you don't get flamed;-)

With the google summer of code E-AC3 contribution 
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=129050  (thanks!!!), I've had 
good success with mplayer and command lines such as

./mplayer -vc ffvc1 -demuxer lavf -fps 24000/1001 -ac ffeac3 -aid 3  
/movies/BLUE_PLANET_DREAM_ALIVE_HDDVD/HVDVD_TS/feature_BLUEPLANETVC1_HD1.EVO 


However, I've had a problem with Norbit and Black Snake Moan which report:
Forced video codec: ffvc1
Cannot find codec matching selected -vo and video format 0x3267706D.

Trying to force AVC instead of VC1 with -vc ffh264 gives:

Forced video codec: ffh264
Cannot find codec matching selected -vo and video format 0x3267706D.

The audio works fine on these (with -vo null ...)

As it's an HD-DVD it must be VC1 or AVC, right?  (Unless it's MPEG-2 
which would be dumb but no problem to detect and play), and AVC is well 
supported so I'm scratching my head.

Any hints/suggestions?

Never mind.  Turns out a <shift>Q does what I want.  No idea why I tried it.

Doesn't that work without -vc ffvc1 (at least for h264, it does for me)?
And without -ac ffeac3 (I never tested that)?

I guess it can't autodetect MPEG2 as long as you add -vc (or at least -vc
different from mpeg12, ffmpeg12 and ffmpeg12mc - you may want to compare
performance).

I noticed this also, except it's still there after recoding into mpeg or
h264.  Had no idea what it was.  In the midst of a movie, a few seconds of
broken up video of some completely unrelated video is seen.

First of all did he started any server on "server" machine? For 
"http://server:80/..." it could be Apache2, on "server" machine side.

Hi ,
  
   I am new to this group.
   I am very new to video standards and working on a project.
   How do I use mplayer to transform mpeg video stream file into a series of uncompressed bitmap images or RGB images.
   What is the command to save these uncompressed bitmap images to a file.
  
   Can anyone help me in this please.

Thanks

Try mplayer -v with also channels parameter to see what's the output.
And maybe you can try ao=alsa

I make mistake: mplayer cache 2 sec without out to lame, after caching
it write cache to stdout in lame input.

I try 32k-cache and zero cache-min with no effect. 

Situations:
- Playback. Mplayer precache stream, after this it decode aac and out
stream to soundcard on-the-fly, without jecks.
- Store wav. Mplayer cache stream, write to file, cache stream, write
to file,... Mplayer doesn't write stream at cache-time, it's a problem.

Indeed going through mencoder proper, as its based on the same
demuxing code that the player uses, will still bring odd blips.

I had to run my file through a program called 'tytompg' which is
available for no cost, but is closed source.  You can probably google
for it to find a download; they have precompiled versions for
win32/x86-64 as well as linux(something recent)/32bit and
osx(10.4+)/universal binary.  This utility will extract the mpeg2
video and corresponding audio stream and re-multiplex back into a
rather normal mpeg file with proper headers and whatnot.

It would seem the author of this tool is rather protective of his
rather good work, and couldn't care less about helping out the free
software community, so sadly heres nothing to even try and reimplement

Hi Carl,

Although this is off-topic in my opinion, in my opinion I'm entitled to
voice my opinion at least once (as is everyone else) and so I'll do.

I don't think much can be done to prevent "breaking threads" unfortunately -
even manually correcting the subject doesn't work on any of the mailing
lists I've tried it.

In general however, in my view it's stuck-up and self-righteous in the
extreme to behave so rigidly in defense of entirely unjustifiable norms.
Sure it's nice to receive all your emails arranged and formatted the same
way - it saves time amongst others. But when the mailing list carries only a
few tens of messages daily? To fanatically expect everyone to manicure their
messages to perfection and to vigilantly enforce that practice probably take
more time, energy and aggravation than you save.

To drift further off-topic, this topic originated from my use of MPlayer to
play high-quality full-motion Uncompressed (Raw) ASF screen captures made by
Windows Media Encoder. The specific resolution I'm capturing them in (800 x
600) is unplayable on my system by every single player (because they all use
the Windows infrastructure which has a bug at that resolution) and the
captures are only usable by VirtualDub-MPEG, which fortunately is where I
need them to be used. However, I had no way of checking captures before
processing them in VirtualDub, until I discovered that the only, THE ONLY,
player capable of rendering those captures is my MPlayer! Congratulations to
all on a job well done.

Kind regards,
Francois

are you kidding??
you break threads when you reply to received messages
posting unrelated subjects.
When you want to write of something not related to a thread
simply create a new message, not a reply

yes and do you know why? To keep the mailing list archive
tidy and readable few weeks/months/years from now(),
in order to permit searches by topic

...what are you talking about?

That's thread hijacking, not breaking threading.

Breaking threading happens when the In-Reply-To header is not set
correctly, and happens worse when the Subject line is also modified at
the same time.

> create a new message, not a reply

That's because threading is not done based on the Subject line, but on
the rather more esoteric In-Reply-To header. Here's what will (or
should) work:

Look at the list of all headers for the message you are replying to.

Find the Message-ID header. For your most recent post, this was
"<532B77054B89D711B8D70002B3A0F75D05F122B2 at panda.datavoice.co.za>"
(without quotes).

As the very first line of your post, before any quotes or other new
text, add an In-Reply-To header by hand (which is possible because mail
headers are simply plain, unformatted text with a particular syntax) and
give that Message-ID.


Unlike all of the in-message formatting which we ordinarily request that
people do, this *is* more hand work than is necessarily appropriate.
That's why the fix we normally suggest for people whose replies break
threads is to start using a different mail program, and if necessary a
different mail account. (Or, at least, configure their mail client to
correctly set the In-Reply-To header - but I'm not entirely sure how
that would be possible with most which do not do it by default.)

I do happen to know that it is entirely possible to have Outlook,
normally the worst mail-formatting offender, set that header correctly -
because the replies I receive from co-workers in my work environment,
where everyone except me uses that program, are threaded correctly 90%
of the time. However, I do not know what the difference is.

>> In general however, in my view it's stuck-up and self-righteous in

>> unjustifiable norms.

It *is* justifiable - in that it makes it much easier to follow a
discussion, and it induces more correct snipping.

Top-posted discussions are harder to follow than ones which are not
(particularly long after the fact), because you have to manually locate
the beginning of the oldest message (near the bottom of the post) and
read it downwards, then go up again to the beginning of the next message
and read it downwards, and repeat.

Non-top-posted discussions which do not use a recognizable form of
quoting are harder to follow than ones which do, because it is not as
easily possible to determine at a glance exactly which stage of the
discussion a given quote came from or exactly who said it.

My .sig from work may be slightly relevant on one of these points:

==
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.

You could also argue that it would take proportionally *more* time,
energy and aggravation to do this on a higher-volume list, and so argue
against doing it at all.

The facts are that there are more-or-less solid reasons for these
requirements, and that top posting is considered at best a faux pas in
virtually all of Internet society except that fraction which learned all
of its rules from Microsoft.

Failing to follow these norms makes it harder and more aggravating for
us (read: "the people who actually do the work", which has not
technically included me for some years) to read your posts, and leaves
us less inclined to bother doing so. Unlike with e.g. the rules for
submitting patches or bug reports, we are not hard-line about refusing
to pay attention to posts which break them, but the reasoning is partly
the same and some of the same principle does apply.

Not sure if this is what's needed for mplayer, since I don't have any
"remote" machines working to try it on, but can he log in across his
network and get an Xwindows connection on the machine he intends to
run mplayer on (the server)?  I'd _guess_ this would be a minimum
requirement.

I had interesting difficulties with capturing a "short" clip to test.
As I wanted to provide you guys with an entire .ty+ file, so as to
give an example of XML appended to it, I decided to record a small
clip to provide a file that was complete.

The issue I ran into: It appears that doing a manual "live tv"
recording of the current show produces a different file than a
"scheduled" recording.

I tried multiple times to do a "record live tv" and then stop after a
few seconds, upto 1 minute.  The files produced were between 8 and 36
megs in size.  None of them played properly. On the smaller end, it
wouldnt find anything, but in the 36 meg file it was able to find the
audio.

Doing some investigation, I noticed in tivoweb plus' info for the
recordings that there was a status of "Converted from live."  Based on
my inability to get a 1 minute 'live' recording to even play back, I
tried scheduling a 1 minute recording.  This produced a 'normal' file
that is instantly picked up / playable, albeit with the telltale audio
desync for the first 10 seconds and possibly more when skipping back
and forth.

"Converted from live" verbose output: http://pastebin.com/f7ab16137
"Scheduled" verbose output: http://pastebin.com/f64618fa5

The 36 meg "audio only" playback output, and files i tried, have been
cleared out by more of my testing but if you would like me to
reproduce, I would be able to.

Note, these are coming from a DirecTV Tivo not a standalone, so the
mpeg bitstream was originally encoded by DTV.  I am not certain, but
inferring from posts on the tivo discussion forums standalone
recordings differ slightly, possibly with regard to AC3 streams on D*
premium movie channels, but it may be other things too; I simply don't
know for certain.

I tried going to ftp.mplayerhq.hu and didn't see an incoming dir  as
normal, but trying ftp1.mplayerhq.hu showed the .  If you want them
somewhere else, let me know.

The files were uploaded as "scheduled.ty+" "liverec.ty+" and also
included is the scheduled.tmf file

Within the .tmf file (which is basically a .tar archive) you get a
video stream .ty file and metadata as separate xml file. The extracted
.ty from this archive will -not- contain the "ty+" medatada embedded
into the end of the file. (diff -a confirms that the footer is all
that has changed)

Also, unless you extract the stream file from the .tmf archive,
mfs_ftp does not actually serve up different files when it comes to
the "ty" vs "ty+" extensions; they are all ty+ format with metadata.
However, other tools, like 'tytool' produce simple .ty files without
metadata.

Folks, 
Many thanks for your responses. I reply your questions in one email. 

1. Masaru, I don't know what LIVE555 is. I simply followed the manual, 
unpack the tar, configure, make and make install. That's it. 

2. Krzysztof's comments on Apache made me to recall that I probably don't 
have it. I need to check. Would Apache2 web server affect RTSP as well?
I got the same "connection refused" error when I entered "mplayer 
rtsp//server/..."

3. Jack, you asked "can he log in across his network and get an Xwindows 
connection on the machine he intends to
run mplayer on (the server)?  I'd _guess_ this would be a minimum 
requirement."
I don't understand this question. My goal is to start the mplayer at 
'workstation' machine, but play a video saved in 'server' machine. 

Frank

I misunderstood, forget what I said.  :-)  As an alternative solution,
how about mounting the video directory from the remote machine locally
and playing it from there?  mplayer would think it was local.

If you have installed LIVE555, ./configure detects it autonamtically.
About LIVE555? Use Google.

mplayer require LIVE555 for playing RTSP/RTP stream files.

I've only replied to question.

If ONE want to play file by "mplayer 
http://server:80/path/to/the/file/file.mpg" then ONE need HTTP server up 
and running and html document or web folder with this file.

If ONE want to play file by "mplayer ftsp://server/file.mpg" then ONE 
need LIVE555 server up and running and streaming this file first of all 
(try live-tool maybe?)

If ONE want to play file by "mplayer 
/shared/folder/on/remote/machine/file.mpg" then ONE need some net 
filesystem up and runnig (NFS for both linux machines or samba for mixed 
linux-win machines).

And one thing - mplayer can't stream file from one machine to other so 
it can't be used as "server".

It is DTS 5.1, but mplayer is downmixing it to 2ch

That is okay, but you should better use upload.mplayerhq.hu (which
currently is the same as ftp1.mplayerhq.hu but that may change).
ftp.mplayerhq.hu is a DNS-round-robin, so you might end up on one of our
mirrors which do not have incoming.

Moved to samples.mplayerhq.hu

Concerning your A-V sync problems, please try again with latest SVN (and
possibly -mc 10), the demuxer previously generated bad timestamps
previously.

If you have a soundcard with 6 speakers, you need to pass the options
-channels 6 -af channels=6
in order to have a 6 channels output.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] MPEG parsing
Message-ID: <904646.91847.qm@web31105.mail.mud.yahoo.com>

I'm starting a research project which involves data compression, so I want to
be able to parse MPEG streams (e.g., MPEG-2 files) in order to manipulate the
DCT components, motion vectors, and other data.  Ideally, it would be good to
have C functions to examine these, write them out into individual files, and,
optionally, put them back together again after manipulation.  (I actually don't
care so much about the last step for what I'm doing; it has to be possible, but
not necessarily easy.)  Anyway, since tools already exist for such actions, it
doesn't make sense for me to purchase a copy of the MPEG-2 standard and
reimplement it from scratch.  On the other hand, mplayer has a huge codebase
and I don't know how well the source code itself is documented; I'd certainly
rather not have to understand lots of arcane parts I'll never use before using
the (different but possibly still arcane) parts I will.  In past projects, I've
been changing an existing MPEG codec that's been set up for me, but these
projects worked with proprietary source code, so I can't use that source code
here.  Do you have any ideas how to start and whether or not to use mplayer -
and whether there's another open source tool I could or should use instead?

(My apologies if such abilities are listed in the documentation, but, after a
fair bit of time pouring over this documentation, I couldn't find any such
abilities described.  Also, let me know whether another mailing list would be
more appropriate; I didn't want to mail MPlayer-dev-eng, since, although I
might get an answer, it didn't seem to be an appropriate forum.)

On my System though, I have to additionally specify the correct alsa 
channel. Only one (0,1) accepts 6 channel input, the other two (0,0 and 
0,2) accept only 2 channel input, and play the 6 channel input at 1/3rd 
speed, as always three channels get sequentially mixed into one

in addition to -channels 6 -af channels=6 try -ao alsa:device=0.0 or 0.1 
or 0.2 (IIRC the syntax, don't have access to my machine right now).

By default, mplayer tries to open the device "default" for 2 channels, and
the device "surround51" for 6 channels (with a fallback to "default").
Therefore, you just have to set up your .asoundrc so that surround51 points
to hw:0.1.

On the other hand, I do not see the need for -af channels=6: on my system,
everything is fine without it.

now I (partially) remember, the correct command line is something like 
-ao alsa:device=hw=0.1

And yes, I was able to play DTS 5.1 (from DVDs, no AVI though since I 
never encountered them), but I mostly stay with AC3, as DTS still 
sometimes has some issues and I don't bother inquiring them that much as 
I should :(

Another thing, -af channels=6 was not needed for my on-board sound 
solution (nvidia nforce4 ultra chipset, don't know the make of the sound 
chip anymore), but due to a lightning stroke this thing gave up and now 
I'm using a terratec, where -af channels=6 is mandatory, as otherwise 
surround comes only from some loudspeakers, (IIRC rear right, front 
right and center or whatever), and definitely not in the right order.

Oh, and I did forget: the moment you specify -af <something>, audio 
track change with the # key won't work anymore, as internally the 
channel number is set to zero (at least at the point where the channel 
is changed) and mplayer exits with an error. I fixed that by hardcoding 
6 channels into that very special place, but this is merely a hack, but 
noone else had any problems with it, so I don't know if there will be a 
fix for this anytime soon.

@devs,

Thanks for all the hard work, I've got a small feature request though.

Matroska container format allows you to set a title for the filename in the 
metadata.  Using slave mode, get_meta_title doesn't return anything ... could 
someone change that to pull out the title in the MKV metadata instead?

To create a titled .mkv,

$ mkvmerge -o foobar.mkv --title "Foo Bar" foobar.avi

$ mkvinfo foobar.mkv

Thanks :)

Steve

Hi, Krzysztof and all,

Thanks for the info. 

1. I am able to play video files in mounted directory via NFS. 

2. I dowloaded the Live555 media server and made it running at my 'server' 
machine. 
The following output shows the LIVE555 server is running at 169.254.15.100 
that is my 'server'

See http://www.live555.com/mediaServer/ for additional documentation.

However, I am still get the error of "conenction refised" at 'workstation'

I've only replied to question.

If ONE want to play file by "mplayer 
http://server:80/path/to/the/file/file.mpg" then ONE need HTTP server up 
and running and html document or web folder with this file.

If ONE want to play file by "mplayer ftsp://server/file.mpg" then ONE 
need LIVE555 server up and running and streaming this file first of all 
(try live-tool maybe?)

If ONE want to play file by "mplayer 
/shared/folder/on/remote/machine/file.mpg" then ONE need some net 
filesystem up and runnig (NFS for both linux machines or samba for mixed 
linux-win machines).

And one thing - mplayer can't stream file from one machine to other so 
it can't be used as "server".

Download LIVE555 client source, compile it, install it, download MPlayer

        let loop=loop+1
done

which happily plays and logs the files in the directory.  However, between 
each movie, it drops back briefly to the background screen which I can't let 
happen.

So.. I started looking at slave mode.

I used the command line

mplayer -fs -fixed-vo -slave -idle -input file=/home/pnunn/.mplayer/pipe

after creating the pipe and by sending a file to the pipe with

 echo "loadfile /home/pnunn/Download/robot-chicken-gummy-bear.mp4 1" 
> /home/pnunn/.mplayer/pipe

the first file plays just fine.  When it ends, the screen stays up and I 
thought I was nearly there.

however, when I send another file to the pipe, it plays in a small window in 
the top corner of the screen (not full screen).. also, I need a way for the 
script to be able to determine when the playing file has finished so that it 
can log the information I need and start the next one.

Any more ideas please... I really need to get this last bit sorted soon...

I'll keep digging too.

Thanks so much.

Peter.

I ran into a small screen/full screen problem myself if an older
screen doesn't go away.  If you do a ps -ef | grep mplayer do you have
two of them running?

MPlayer isn't a library.  However, libavcodec, which MPlayer uses for
most of it's video decoding/encoding, is in fact a lib, used by many
people/projects.  You're likely to find info on using it
at http://ffmpeg.sf.net

	while mplayer is trying to	contact the previous one?
Message-ID: <1189835591.5581.27.camel@localhost.localdomain>

hi all

i am working on a setup, where i use mplayer as a backend to be
controlled by another software over a fifo. the aim is to let mplayer
play some webstreams. the problem i encounter is, that mplayer only
responds on a new 'loadfile <some_url>' input, when it is actually
playing a stream, but not when it is still trying to contact the
previous stream server. let's say the streamserver doesn't respond for a
while and i would like to try another url, i have to wait until mplayer
decides, that the stream is not available. is there some way to make
'loadfile <some_url/file>' work immediately, even if the remote server
of the previous url is not responding? or are there any workarounds
(probably without having to quit mplayer in such a situation, which
works, but is definitely a bad hack)?

Subject: [MPlayer-users] mencoder: interlaced mpeg2 to interlaced mpeg4?
Message-ID: <200709150327.07500.kde@timotheegroleau.com>

Hi all, 

I'm currently archiving the videos taken from my Sony DCR-SR200E video camera 
(MPEG2, interlaced, anamorphic: 720x576 -> 1024x576). I am converting them to 
mpeg4 to save space, while keeping the interlacing.

Using mplayer and the yadif deinterlace filter, I could play both original and 
converted video properly deinterlaced. I wanted to check the result in 
another player and I used Xine. Xine could also play both videos but, while 
the default Xine deinterlace filter worked perfectly on the original mpeg2 
video, it had no effect on the generated mpeg4 video.

I am kind of clueless about interlacing. Is there something wrong with the 
deinterlace filter of Xine or is there something wrong with the mpeg4 video I 
generated? 

The reason I ask is because I will eventually delete the mpeg2 originals and I 
want to make sure my mpeg4 copies are good. Thanks in advance for any 
explanation on this.


I'm using mencoder 1.0_rc1_p20070622-r4 on gentoo and the mencoder command I 
used for the conversion is below:

# vopt="aspect=16/9:vbitrate=1400000:mbd=2:v4mv:ilme:ildct:trell:mv0:vqmin=3"
# 
# mencoder -ffourcc XVID -oac mp3lame -lameopts preset=standard:vol=3 -srate 
44100 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vpass=1:turbo:$vopt -passlogfile 
mpeg4_2pass.log -o /dev/null m2u00037.mpg
# 
# mencoder -ffourcc XVID -oac mp3lame -lameopts preset=standard:vol=3 -srate 
44100 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vpass=2:$vopt -passlogfile

Can someone point me to somewhere? Thanks a lot!

These all looks like warnings. The binary "mplayer" whould have been
created at the root of your source tree.

Maybe add

- -vo x11 -zoom

to your command line?

Attached patch works for the sample you uploaded, but I'm not sure it is
quite right. If there are some files where it does not help (or breaks
normal playback) please make the available to me as well (cutting out
only the interesting part).

Message-ID: <bcbfeb7f0709160524u62296bc1q21179f4a2bd1620f@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I wish to use command-line mplayer on my laptop under Windows Vista
(sorry...:). I can play movies of different formats without any problem on
the laptop screen. However, when I connect a beamer to the VGA port I don't
see anything. The movie starts playing I hear the sound, but mplayer window
is just green. In full screen mode it shows just a blank screen.

If I use Windows Media Player everything works fine. But I don't want to use
Windows Media Player, with all its useless functions and poor performance -
and also it does not play all the formats that I want to use.

Any ideas what is happening?

Kind regards, Lucas

Use either -adapter or -vo gl (for -vo gl also read up on the options it
has, if you have a proper 3D-capable card they can provide a lot of
speedup. Also with Vista you should probably use -noslices since texture
upload seems to have become an operation with extremely high overhead on
that).

Just for reference, I'm a native English speaker. In case anyone else is
confused, I think that the meaning of the word 'beamer' which you intend
is what we usually call a (video) projector. 

***** (The rest of this post veers off-topic) *****

I know of two native English uses of the word 'beamer':

1. Slang for a car made by 'BMW'.

2. Slang for a ball bowled in cricket which flies directly at the
batsman's head, without bouncing. It is dangerous, illegal, and it
usually happens by accident when the ball slips out of the bowler's hand
early.

*****

I have only heard the word 'beamer' used to mean a projector once
before...

I was on training at IBM in Germany. The German instructor and I had
just been chatting about his (English) Massey Ferguson tractor engines,
and my (German) Volkswagen cars, so when he mentioned his 'beamer', I
thought he was talking about a German car...

*****

I've just looked this up to make sure I'm not just talking nonsense:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beamer

I find this page quite interesting. It seems that there is also an
outdated slang interpretation - an IBM employee (like me!)

*****

Sorry for the bandwidth waste... I just find languages and words very
interesting.

Well, that is probably because "Beamer" is (one of) the German names for
projector. Also in the category of German invented names that sound like
English but are not: "Handy" for mobile phone.
And most English-speaking Germans are aware that those are not English
words, but they still can slip in without noticing because the sound so
English ;-).

In The Netherlands, we call it a beamer too.

Wikipedia says:

Beamer is slang for:

Video projector, a pseudo-anglicism in a number of languages including 
German and Dutch.

And there's also:

http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beamer

which redirects to Videoprojector :) (which is one word in Dutch)

Message-ID: <20070917100522.ivkmh601moww0g0w@wmlab.csie.ncu.edu.tw>

Hello:
      I have any questions to ask. But I already sent some mails for  
you before. I don't
get some response to these problems' informations or solutions. I am very sad.

My problem is about to cross-compile with --enable-win32 problem. I  
want to cross compile
to arm platform. But I encounter some questions. The error  
informations as follow:

# error message... (start)

cc1: error: invalid option `no-omit-leaf-frame-pointer'
make[1]: *** [ldt_keeper.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/home/aix/MPlayer-1.0rc1/loader'
make: *** [loader/libloader.a] Error 2

# error message... (end)

I don't know what happened to this situation. Can you give me some  
suggestions,
informations or solutions?

I look up the mplayer problem subject list, someone says mplayer can't  
cross compile to
arm with --eanble-win32(dll) in a article. I think it is impossible to  
corss compile to
arm with --enable-win32(dll), it should have other methods to solve(I  
think). Base on
this thought, I send this mail, I try to get some informations from  
you(mplayer).

My purpose is that I want to use mplayer using win32 dll on arm  
platform. Do you feel
possible? I don't know the result. But I need your helps and suggestions.

Regards, thank you for your reading.

Absolutely not.  win32 codecs are binaries, compiled for 32-bit x86
CPUs.  They can't work on arm without a full x86 emulator.

At this point, with very nearly all common codecs available natively in
libavcodec, I don't consider lack of win32 DLLs much of a loss.

Also, you should use a snapshot from SVN, the last release version is
quite old.

This would be because it starts with the file(s) and/or playlists which
you specify at start time. If you want it to have a particular playlist,
you need to specify that playlist file when you start the program.

As far as track position - I can imagine how that would be implemented
(if you mean "position in the track which was last being played"), but
I've never seen a player which did it. Neither of these is a "basic"
feature.

> 2. How can I minimize the player to the tray? How can I make it
> start-minimized (to tray!)?

That depends on which GUI you are using. It is entirely possible that
some - including, I would guess, the built-in GUI - do not have this
functionality at all.

MPlayer itself is designed as a command-line application, which runs
only while it is actually playing something and does not inherently have
an independent window; obviously, "minimize" is not an action which
makes sense for that type of program.

Also, MPlayer is designed with a Linux environment in mind, and there is
not necessarily a "system tray" in that environment - so there would not
necessarily be a tray to minimize to in any case.

> 3. Is it possible to configure global-hotkeys (play, prev, next,
> pause, mute, etc)?

Depends what you mean by "global". Keybindings for when MPlayer itself
has focus can be configured in the input.conf file, but where that would
need to be stored on a Windows system such as I infer you are using I do
not know.

Commands which would have an effect when MPlayer is not the "active"
program are another matter, and most likely would have to be set in your
window manager - which, if you are in Windows, you have no control over
and may not provide this functionality at all.

> Where can I find a developers project page to submit bug-reports and
> feauter requests?

There is no "page" for that. Bug reports go here on this mailing list,
following the guidelines of DOCS/tech/bugreports.html (and if you can't
find that, you are probably not competent to submit a usable bug
report); feature requests also go here, unless you plan to include a
source patch to add the feature along with your request.

foobar2000 did this for example.

"global" means if MPlayer has no focus.

But how can I watch my bug-reports and feauter-requests if I put them on 
the list manualy? Watching the list? Oh no!

Never heard of it.

Then, if I'm not greatly mistaken, that's a window-manager issue;
MPlayer cannot take control of input if it does not have focus, any more
than any other program can

Oh - you were thinking of a bugtracker. Yes, there is
bugzilla.mplayerhq.hu - but how many people actually pay attention to it
I am not sure.

Watching the list does not sound like a hardship to me, but I'll admit
that many people might not have enough time to sift through the general
traffic if all they are interested in is one issue.

Do, please, be certain that you follow the guidelines in the
bug-reporting document I mentioned if you actually submit a bug report -
whether on the mailing list or on the bugtracker.

> What is about the bugtracking system provided by SF?

MPlayer does not have anything to do with SourceForge - AFAIK,
intentionally so.


Based on the fact that you A) appear to be assuming that the player is
inherently graphical and B) consider the features you describe to be
"basic", you seem to be operating on assumptions about what a video
player is and how it functions which are not compatible with the design
of MPlayer. I would not consider these features to be at all "basic"
(which I understand as meaning roughly "should be present in even the
most minimal player"), and some of them do not seem to even make sense
with a non-persistent-state, non-graphical program - which, at its core,
is what MPlayer actually is.

On Ubuntu, when we open multiple files with Mplayer we get multiple

in the previously open instance, replacing whatever is currently

Write a program/script to do so, controlling MPlayer via slave-mode.

Or you might take a look at any of the MPlayer front-ends listed on the
website, to see if any of them already has such a feature.

Hi,

It appears that recent versions of Mplayer always scale to the whole 
display in fullscreen mode. With virtual display this is inconvenient as 
only a small portion of the image is displayed at once. I can't imagine 
anyone would prefer this kind of behaviour. :)

Earlier versions didn't do this. I can't say exactly when I first 
noticed this behaviour, but it did not occur later than the snapshot 
from 2007-05-24. I guess some options, like fsmode have been removed at 
the same time?

Anyone else noticed?

Krzysztof, 


I did downloaded the Live555 client source codes, which is 
'live.2007.08.03a.tar.gz'. Following the instructions, I did 
unpack the tar, 
genMakefile linux, 
make 
I copied the live directory to /usr/local/lib
All looked OK. 

Then I reconfigured my mplayer, make, and finally make install. The output 
of configure, make and make install of mplayer is attached. 
As you can see, the ./configure automatically detected the live555. The 
output showed
' Checking for LIVE555 Streaming Media libraries ... yes (using 
/usr/local/lib/live)'
However, errors occured as pasted below when make and make install. Note 
the "undefined reference" and "make: *** [mplayer] Error 1".

This much sounds OK at first glance. I haven't bothered with live555
myself so I don't know for certain.

Okay, this is your problem; you ignored one of the most important parts
of the instructions you were given.

You need to use the latest SVN source of MPlayer, not the source to
1.0rc1. 1.0rc1 is more than six months out of date, and very likely is
not compatible with the latest live555.

--enable-dshow doesn't even show up in the ./configure --help section.
Therefore, it's probably not supported in the version that you are trying to
compile. Run --./configure --help to see what options are available in the
version you are trying to compile.

Thanks, I thought I had an upto date version but I used the svn package and
it found the win32dlls.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] sound quality with oss/alsa/aoss/artsd
Message-ID: <04c301c7f9cb$b760a4f0$120ba8c0@es>

Hello.
Could you please help me understand why my solution works?

I play streaming radio by satellite with mplayer.
I also want to be able to mix the sat stream with locally stored audio files.
I simulate sat reception problems by deconnecting/reconnecting the sat cable.
I want my audio output not to be sensible to these simulated sat problems.

I have modified mplayer to use 256 bytes of streaming buffering instead of 2048 bytes
and not to quit trying to receive after 6 sat problems.

Here are the solutions I have tried : 

a/ 
mplayer -ao alsa dvb://channel 
mplayer -ao alsa localfile.mp3
also have a .asoundrc file
results: mixing works fine, but streaming sound quality is very bad following sat problems

b/ 
mplayer -ao oss dvb://channel 
mplayer -ao oss localfile.mp3
results: unable to mix with oss, but perfect sound quality even after sat problems

c/ 
artsd&
mplayer -ao arts dvb://channel 
mplayer -ao arts localfile.mp3
results: perfect mixing and perfect sound quality even after sat problems, but buffering of streaming radio occurs often which results in a delay of up to 15 sec compared to the broadcasted stream, and this buffering is not always constant

d/ 
aoss mplayer -ao oss dvb://channel 
aoss mplayer -ao oss localfile.mp3
results: perfect mixing, but sound quality presents some minor but still audible defects (little cracks) after sat problems

e/ The solution that works for me
aoss artsd&
mplayer -ao arts dvb://channel 
mplayer -ao arts localfile.mp3
results: perfect sound quality and mixing even after sat problems, little but constant streaming buffering

I appreciate any input.
Thanks.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Low voice with 6 channel DTS and libdca
Message-ID: <loom.20070918T151011-919@post.gmane.org>

I've played the sample from
http://www.sr.se/laddahem/MultiKanal/Dts/SURROUNDTEST_011212.zip with the not so
long ago added libdca decoder, which is the default DTS decoder now in MPlayer,
and noticed that after a view seconds of playing the voice get very low and
barely understandable. I think this affects only one particular channel because
before the voice was fine. Can somebody confirm this? Maybe someone who speaks
Swedish can tell which channel it is.


Here's my mplayer output in case someone is interested:

My efforts to play DTS 6 channel have failed, and the only player I have 
found capable of playback is Totem-xine.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Audio stream problems
Message-ID: <20070918145123.238030@gmx.net>

Hello,

I?m trying to run the following stream:

mplayer http://realserver3.hdm-stuttgart.de:8080/horads.ogg

After a while there?s just mickymouse-sound output - sorry..can?t explain better. The stream works sometimes for 1 hour, sometimes just a few minutes until my problem comes up. Any Idea what should I do to have a continued stream? Is there any posibility to reconnect a stream after e.g. 10 minutes?

Best regards
Tom

Message-ID: <81b02f020709180756r2c728183r5ccf284caaff973c@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I installed an ubuntu 7.04 on my iMac G5, and compiled the svn version
of mplayer. But I found the fullscreen not work, although movie
windows is fullscreen size, the real movie is just in the center of
the screen and in the original size, here's  log:

I also found -zoom option after some search, it can do fullscreen, but
the movie in the screen is splited into many columns, there are gaps
between columns.

Never seen that, however you could try alternate vo's

mplayer -vo help

will give you a list of options

mplayer -vo xv

mplayer -vo gl

Are some of the more common useful options.

Thanks, looks this is a common question.
Finally I found -vo xv works fine without problem, I think it is the
recommend vo to be used under *nux.

I can play the sample without problem.
Both downmixing to two channels and decoding all the six channels
and listen to each channel separately (I don't have a 6 channels setup).

I don't know Swedish but if you listen in stereo any pay attention
to the words it is easy to tell which channel you are listening.
In the sample the order is L C R Ls Rs LFE.

I can test only on 32 bit intel cpu. It would be good if somebody
else can test on AMD cpu and or 64 bit mplayer.

Ciao
Giacomo

You might investigate the MPLAYER_VERBOSE environment variable, as
mentioned in the man page under the -msglevel option.

I'm not entirely sure that that environment variable was supported (at
least to the necessary degree) in the version you are running, but it is
the only way - short of redirecting all output to /dev/null - to prevent
MPlayer from printing anything at all.

I tested it on Opteron 165/Dual core and mplayer 64 bit and 5.1 sound. 
Doesn't work, getting only 2 front channels.
Totem-xine plays it correctly.

You're right, this is indeed the order in which the channels are 
presented in the sample.

I've already found out why one channel is played at such a low volume. 
It's because the center is played back through the subwoofer.

To play DTS 5.1 sound correctly I have to remap the channels. Using the 
following option it works as intended:


-af channels=6:6:0:4:1:0:2:1:3:2:4:3:5:5


I wonder if it's just me that needs this remapping or if it is a general 
problem? If it is, maybe this remapping could be done automatically. It's 
annoying to have to do it for yet another codec besides AAC.

The channel order for multichannel audio codec are a mess
(except for ac3). There were two distinct patches that fixed
the problem but none of them has been applyed.
I'm planning to resurrect the thread again in the future once I 
have more spare time for coding.

I've just noticed that I've posted the wrong remapping for DTS. The above 
is actually the one for AAC.

The right remapping for DTS is the following one:

-af channels=6:6:0:0:1:2:2:3:3:5:4:1:5:4

teaches him swimming. Then, a sunny, happy-go-lucky girl named Amuro
Ninagawa who was transferred from Okinawa joined the club. Her
extraordinary underwater speed and unorthodox swimming style (plus her
personal habit of nude swimming?a powerful magnet to teenage boys)

empty, Hiro wanders around town looking for Sawawa. Instead, he runs
into the new resident of the mansion, and ends up pushing her out of
the way of some falling steel beams. Unfortunately, he loses his own
life in the process. Luckily, or perhaps unluckily, the person he
thought he saved turns out to be a princess of the monster kingdom,
and she grants him a second life...but only for as long as he will be
her servant.

Hi,
I installed the subversion snapshot. There is no more "connection refused" 
error but still not be able to run stream. 

For a recap, my setup is:
I have two FC6 boxes. One is named server the other called workstation. 
They are back to back connected via a Gigabit ethernet link. There is no 
switch, router or any firewall in between. The network connectivity 
between them works fine ( I can ping, I can mount a directory using nfs, 
etc...). 

My goal is to stream a video from the server to workstation using mplayer. 
The video clip is called hd.avi and is saved in /root/share. 
One Server, I downloaded the Live server (live555MediaServer for Linux), 
and made it running. 
On workstation, I had built and installed (copied) the live555 client 
(that is live.2007.08.03a.tar.gz). I donwloaded the mplayer source (the 
latest Subversion snapshot). Configured it and saw it detected the live555 
libs. Then did make and make install, no error. I can play the same video 
file locally on workstation. The mplayer works fine. 

But when I ran mplayer stream. I got the "unsupported RTSP server" error 
as below. Any idea what's wrong?

Because it continues on afterwards, this line is probably not the error.

This line very likely is. It does not see the file in the location where
you asked it to look.

Am I correct in inferring that you have, in root's home directory
("/root/") on your server machine, a directory called "share" which you
are using as the root for your RTSP server?

If that is the case, then if your RTSP server follows the same standard
as most file server programs I've seen, the file "/root/share/filename"
would be accessed by the URL "rtsp://server/filename". You do not want
to specify the full path as you would use it on the server machine; you
want to specify the path relative to the directory your server program
is using as its root.


Again, I am not an expert in these matters, but that is what I would
expect to be the problem.

I always log my machines as root. when I do pwd, it returns
/root/share
Here is my the video clip stored on server. 

>If that is the case, then if your RTSP server follows the same standard

Yes, the file (hd.avi) is stored in /root/share

Sorry, I am not sure I understand this point but I fee it is crucial to 
the problem. 
what directory does my Live server uses? The live server is saved in 
/root. Since it is executible file. I always run it by entering
/root/livemediaserver

I am not a linux guru although I wish to be one.

Have you tried: >/dev/null 2>&1

This is very dangerous (assuming you mean "log into"), but it is not
related to what I was talking about.

There are three different things being referred to with the word "root"
here: the root directory of the computer (which has the filename "/"),
the root user of the computer (which has the username "root"), and the
root directory of the server program (which can be any directory on the
server machine).

In the quote above, I was referring to the second and then to the third
of these.

That is not quite what I was asking.

The question is, what directory is your RTSP server configured to treat
as if it were the root directory?

That was obvious from the URLs you tried; it is not what I was talking
about here.

As an executable file, it should properly be in a bin/ directory
somewhere which is also in your PATH. It should very likely not need to
be run as root (this is a general principle), and therefore to avoid
security issues it should not be run as root.

> I always run it by entering

That is the server binary. What about its configuration files?

In one of the configuration files you should find a line indicating what
directory the RTSP server program will use as its root directory; this
is almost certainly not the same as the one the binary is in.

You need to put the files you want to serve under that directory
(subdirectories should be fine), and then leave out the path to that
directory when you are forming your URLs.

If, for an unlikely example, your RTSP server's root directory were
"/root/", then instead of "rtsp://server/root/share/hd.avi" the correct
URL would probably be "rtsp://server/share/hd.avi". Does that make sense?

If you do not know what the server program is configured to use as its
root directory, then you need to find out before you can make any files
available.

> I am not a linux guru although I wish to be one.

An admirable goal, though you seem to have quite a ways to go.



All of this discussion, incidentally, would be more appropriate on e.g.
a Live-related mailing list rather than on the MPlayer user list; so far
as I can tell your remaining problem appears to have nothing to do with
MPlayer directly, only with the way you are using the server.

There were some transmission errors, and then a crash.

Older versions of mplayer never crashed on a transmission error, they 
just skipped it.

This is CVS from 2007-09-03.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Audio buffer overflow on raw audio file
Message-ID: <B0E0661A0B6B4B7E2AE9FC8E@FF7E304708B5601B02DB12FA>

I've got an MXF file [1] that MPlayer won't play [2] so I split it into its 
component parts with mxfsplit and I would like to play the parts.

The video stream split from the MXF is easy to play, its IMX 30, so MPlayer 
can play that with no problems.

The audio is raw 24 bit, 48K stereo. I presumed that the following commend 
would play the audio ok but I get choppy sound and buffer overflow warnings.

mplayer _0001-G16010102.Stream -demuxer rawaudio -rawaudio 
channels=2:rate=48000:samplesize=3

I am running an MPlayer on Windows that I have compiled myself so it could 
be something wrong with my build environment, and I am also an SVN build 
from a month or two ago. Sadly I am at the Lib Dem conference in Brighton 
and will only be back at my build environment for one day before I go to 
the Labour conference in Bournmouth, so I hope I've done something stupid 
rather than needing to rebuild MPlayer.

Here's the output:

Message-ID: <e88b70fc0709190124p35e9a0d5g9790c8915d9b6728@mail.gmail.com>

hi all
i use Mencoder in order to cut .avi file.
But if I want to cut an interval between 20 secs and 50 secs, it doesn't work.

I use this syntax:

"mencoder -ss 00:00:20 -endpos 00:00:50 -ovc copy -oac copy
bigvideo.avi -o result.avi"

and it copy from 20th second to the end of file. There is a solution?

It seems the dsound driver is not able to do a fallback to a supported
format and probably your sound card driver like most today has only very
crappy waveOut support.
Try adding "-af format=s16le" to the commandline.

MXFlib supports files that are far, far outside the specs, and many
tools that create MXF files are still based on very early drafts.
Some bugs of even the products from the bigger players were found with
the help of MPlayer's demuxer.
Please upload a sample to ftp://upload.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incoming if
you want us to see if we can easily support it.
Same for the wav file in case the tip above does not help.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Lynx/Mplayer Announcement
Message-ID: <E1IXwPP-0003kL-00@knopper>


I'm sending this to several public forums, (and several
private individuals) but not by CC:  to avoid crosspost
message bounce hell.

As a courtesy to everyone to let them know where I'm sending this:

Lynx-dev:
mailto:lynx-dev at nongnu.org
http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/options/lynx-dev/

Mplayer-users:

(Los Angeles) LAMP SIG:
mailto:lamp-user at maillist.lampsig.org
http://www.lampsig.org/

Feel free to forward this to any other place you want.

The purpose of this message is to announce a Rexx
script, 'usnatch' downloadable from:

http://www.lafn.org/~aw585/usnatch

This announcement is online at:

http://www.lafn.org/~aw585/usnatch.txt

This script is used in conjunction with the Lynx text mode
browser as an 'EXTERN', and with mplayer allows the user
to play videos from several sites such as www.youtube.com, video.google.com
and such, with mplayer, all as a convenience to the user,
trying to avoid roadblocks created by javascript.

If their mplayer is configured to use drivers
such as svga, vesa, aalib, nvidia console driver, or even null
(in some cases the most important one),
the user can play the videos without a GUI.
It can be run from the command line, and though not tested,
I see no reason it can't be run from other browsers.
(Let me know about any success or problems with that)
It can probably be adapted to use other video players
with little trouble if desired.

The user must choose to run the EXTERNAL program,
deciding if he trusts the media source, and activating the
default EXTERNAL (if only one is defined), or the EXTERNAL menu
(if more than one EXTERNAL program is configured) for the URL type,
by typically pressing the ',' (for the current page) or '.'
(for the current link) keys.

>From the command line the program might typically be run by:

$usnatch 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAGylaoBt6M' -i -p

or inside the Lynx config file:

EXTERNAL:http:usnatch %s -i -a:TRUE


The program started out as a late night hack to scrape
the actual flash video (.flv) link from the http://videodownloader.net
page in the backend and then play the video. 
It has since been expanded to scrape directly from
www.youtube.com when appropriate, using the algorithm from 
the youtube-dl program (http://www.arrakis.es/~rggi3/youtube-dl/),
or from http://KeepVid.com,
or even try a few guesses that have sometimes worked in the past
if nothing else works.

The main point of the program is to handle the
interactions of URLs found using lynx,
the getting of video URLs from the download helper sites,
and mplayer, all as a convenience to the user.
I first used some of the screen scraping techniques in it
when fixing a program to email my L.A. public library
account summaries nightly.

Two weeks after writing this script, I ran into another fellow Lynx user
at a local LUG meeting.  Especially as this gentleman is totally blind,
a news junky and there being so much content on sites such as Youtube,
that he had no access to, Usnatch quite fits the bill.


Rant:

There are many ways to render a web page.  Leaving aside considerations
like tactile or audio presentation of the data, a few, with possible
gradations between them, are:

1. a simple dump of the html etc.
2. text mode rendering, as in a simple text mode browser
3. text mode rendering with links to images and multimedia content 
4. graphical mode rendering the includes images and possibly other media
5. As a checksum to for detecting changes in the content.
6. as a list of links, as Lynx does with '-dump -listonly' or when
   'L' (LIST command typically bound to the 'L' key) is pressed.
   This view I like to think of as the 'Google' view of a page.
   My understanding is that they based their search algorithms on the idea
   that this was typically the most important information on a web page,
   and this mode instantly renders it.
7. As a listing of the header-metadata in a page.  I personally know of no
   software that shows this, and am thinking about writing one.

   This last item is starting to drift off into semantic web concerns,
   where probably they have dealt with it.

End of rant.

Some observations:

The build for some 'Red Hat' derived Linux systems don't seem to have
the Lynx '-listonly' switch by default (this is easily worked around,
but awkward).  Odd, because some people think of Lynx first
when trying to extract URLs from html. 

Apparently the default Lynx build for some BSD systems
do not have EXTERNAL capability.

It would be nice for some people if wget had an odometer style download
progress report mode, like Lynx's, with capability somewhere between no
progress report and the 'dot' character graphic report.

Prehaps a switch for Lynx could be added, '-odometer', for use
with '-source' or '-dump', to send a progress report to standard error?
Not sure how practicle that would be, it's just an idea.

It would also be good if the Lynx EXTERNAL menu was brought
into line with the download and print menus, and allow using
a discriptive comment instead of just the literal commands
of the menu.

I respectfully dedicate the program usnatch to the memories
of  H.G. Wells, and Jorge Luis Borges.
And don't forget all the people who don't know how or for some
reason can't use simple HTML links for their media content,
without whom the program wouldn't be needed.

Your syntax doesn't match your description, since -endpos really means
how long you want to encode. It's the ending position only if you don't
use -ss, in other words. So if you want to encode 30 secs, you use
-endpos 30.

Well, when is the end of file?

Thanks - that worked fine. I guess because the two files are now separate 
the video and audio slowly drift out of sync, but that's something I can 
fiddle with.

Hi,

The Live555 media server is an console application. It can be launched by 
typing the filename. There is no configure file.

I understand the different meanings of root now. However the the server is 
an executable file with filename of live555MediaServer. It wasn't a tar 
ball containing configure or make

This is very dangerous (assuming you mean "log into"), but it is not
related to what I was talking about.

There are three different things being referred to with the word "root"
here: the root directory of the computer (which has the filename "/"),
the root user of the computer (which has the username "root"), and the
root directory of the server program (which can be any directory on the
server machine).

In the quote above, I was referring to the second and then to the third
of these.

That is not quite what I was asking.

The question is, what directory is your RTSP server configured to treat
as if it were the root directory?

As an executable file, it should properly be in a bin/ directory
somewhere which is also in your PATH. It should very likely not need to
be run as root (this is a general principle), and therefore to avoid
security issues it should not be run as root.

> I always run it by entering
> /root/livemediaserver

That is the server binary. What about its configuration files?

In one of the configuration files you should find a line indicating what
directory the RTSP server program will use as its root directory; this
is almost certainly not the same as the one the binary is in.

You need to put the files you want to serve under that directory
(subdirectories should be fine), and then leave out the path to that
directory when you are forming your URLs.

If, for an unlikely example, your RTSP server's root directory were
"/root/", then instead of "rtsp://server/root/share/hd.avi" the correct
URL would probably be "rtsp://server/share/hd.avi". Does that make sense?

If you do not know what the server program is configured to use as its
root directory, then you need to find out before you can make any files
available.

> I am not a linux guru although I wish to be one.

An admirable goal, though you seem to have quite a ways to go.



All of this discussion, incidentally, would be more appropriate on e.g.
a Live-related mailing list rather than on the MPlayer user list; so far
as I can tell your remaining problem appears to have nothing to do with
MPlayer directly, only with the way you are using the server.

As far as I can tell, this file clearly violates the specs:
SMPTE-377M, 8.5.7 says:
"
The SourceClips contain:
 - a SourcePackageID which identifies the package with which this SourceClip is associated.
[...]
The same mechanism shall be used to relate each SourceClip in a Material Package to a Source Package, and
each SourceClip in a Source Package to another Source Package.
"

The SourceClips in this package have set SourcePackageID to
93 F7 D9 5B 7B 3A 04 00 DA 77 2E E1 5C 48 30 00
But the only SourcePackage in this file has the ID
F1 02 DA 5B 7B 3A 04 00 1D F9 2E E1 5C 48 30 00

And indeed replacing all occurrences of the above by the below fixes
playback.
While a workaround as long as there is only one SourcePackage is
possible, it is an ugly hack (and very hard to get accepted into ffmpeg
where this demuxer is).
So please instead ask the vendor to fix their implementation to conform
to the specs, this will most likely benefit interoperability with other
products as well.

It makes a lot sense. I tried

or
[root at workstation ~]# mplayer rtsp://server/potty.mpg

Both seemed made further. I saw "file format detected" message as shwon

However, it seems there are quite Adecoder init failed while trying to 
streaming. What went wrong? For a comparison, I can play the same video

I think you've misinterpreted my meaning. See below.

I was not referring to a './configure' script or a Makefile, used when
compiling the program. I was referring to a file which the server
program will read when it starts running and which it will take its
settings from, used when running the program. This kind of file is
referred to as a configuration file: it is a file containing the
program's configuration settings.

There is almost certainly such a file for your RTSP server. You would do
very well to find out what and where it is, and what the settings inside
are.


Thank you for not top-posting entirely; however, part of the point of
correct interleaved posting is to cut out the parts you are not
responding to. You left the entire message quoted at the bottom of your
reply, which is not a significant improvement.

At this point, you are past my ability to help. Either there are major
bugs in the RTSP demuxer being used (not terribly likely), or there is
some problem with the server program such that it is e.g. not muxing the
file correctly. At this point, unless someone else pipes up with more
suggestions, I would advise that you first locate the server
configuration file (as explained in the other mail) and see what the
settings are, and then locate and read the server documentation to find
out what you need to set in order to stream that type of file.

If you need help with the RTSP server itself, I would advise you to find
a discussion forum (whether a mailing list or some other type) related
to the discussion of that server program, as I mentioned at the end of
the mail to which you just replied; at that point, you are entirely
beyond the bounds of what can be considered relevant to MPlayer.

Thanks for looking into the file. I think understand the issue.

I have forwarded your diagnoses to someone who is already in a dialogue 
with the vendor about some other issues (like not following other 
standards) so I hope they will fix their code.

Message-ID: <10bd9830709191610r2a799f3ewe4f25244c10b970a@mail.gmail.com>

I currently have an ARM9 (AT91sam9261) development board that has an
24bpp LCD display wired RGB.  I have built mplayer with some effort
and it seems to work fairly well except that I can not get it to
display RGB only BGR.  It looks like all video codecs, less gifs, bmp
an the like, all output BGR.  Unless there is a magic switch, it looks
like I'm going to need to hack one of the codecs but even looking and
the source for a full day I can figure out what's what.  If someone
could point me in the right direction, rewiring is not an option at
this time, it would be greatly appreciated.

Below is what I used for configure and the debug info from the
execution of mplayer.

Thanks.

Does it happen with every MPEG2 sample you have? With some? Only with one sample
- then please upload to incoming.
Does it only happen with -vc ffmpeg12mc or with every -vc for MPEG2? Is queue
necessary to trigger the crash? Or, in other words, could you send the minimal
(shortest) command line that triggers the crash?

It seems that AC3 in MPA is not supported currently (I guess audio is AC3
because it's AC3 in the other pasted sample below).
If you just want to test something and you don't need support for MP3 "over" MPA
anyway, you could change "0x55" in line 212 of libmpdemux/demux_rtp_codec.cpp to
"0x2000". Actually, I'm curious if it works, so please tell!
Does vlc play this stream with audio?

Please do not top-post, thank you, Carl Eugen

 From what 'yyang' says, he never logs in as anything other than root.

This is of course an immense security risk, but if that's his choice
then that's his choice.

Message-ID: <7d3838330709200505v23a997c9r766b35adb186f01d@mail.gmail.com>

Hello again

I am just searching for the correct way to convert a divx 23.9fps ntsc file
to 25fps dvd pal format.

Is the following command correct

mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts
format=dvd:tele_src=24000/1001:tele_dest=25 -vf scale=720:576 -ofps 25
-lavcopts
vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:keyint=15:vrc_maxrate=9800:vbitrate=5000:aspect=4/3:acodec=ac3:abitrate=192
-o ./dvd.mpg movie.avi


because if so I am experiencing severe a/v sync

I would certainly welcome some help on this.

Just for curiosity mplayer -vf pp=lb -dr -double file.avi plays the divx
file superbly so if there is a way to recreate that as a pal dvd, that would
be great.

Thanks again

Dan

remove that -ofps: it converts the framerate of the destination file to 
25 fps,
while the tele* flags are made to avoid the framerate conversion

[mpeg2video @ 0xb7640ba8]MPEG1/2 does not support 2997/125 fps
Could not open codec.
FATAL: Cannot initialize video driver.

Any suggestions how to correct that

Thanks for the quick reply, I do appreciate it.  I am trying to convert a
file for my niece and at the moment It is driving me nuts.

there's a rounding error; try to add -fps 24000/1001 or  :vstrict=-1 (or -2)
to -lavcopts (but not both).

The -fps 24000/1001 seems to have done it.  Certainly a lot smoother.  I am
going to let that finish now because I am very happy with the results.  I
with try all the other suggestions later and let the list know if there are
any differences.  But for the time being I am a happy chappy.

A big thanks

If it's really an interlaced video, please try -vf yadif: The result should be
superior.

Will try this in the morning.  3 hours  to encode the file only to find I
somehow managed to use the wrong command and the file hasnt resized to pal
dvd format.  oh well another 3 hour wait - only found out because dvdauthor
spit out lots of error messages and then crased the whole system.  So now I
dont even know what command i used as that has been lost in the crash.   I
feel a headache coming on.

-ss and -endpos are very useful in situations like this :-)

Hi, 

1. what does -nocache switch do? I didn't see any difference with or 
without it?

2. The performance is slow using http streaming. Is this the nature of 
http protocol or something else? 
For reference, playing a video in a mounted directory via nfs is much 
faster than playing the same video file using http streaming

The command I used was

 mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts
format=dvd:tele_src=24000/1001:tele_dest=25 -vf scale=720:576 -lavcopts
vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:keyint=15:vrc_maxrate=9800:vbitrate=5000:aspect=4/3:acodec=ac3:abitrate=192
-fps 24000/1001 -o ./dvd.mpg movie.avi

any suggestions.

The thing is it looks good on the computer but not so good once on the dvd.

'-nocache' explicitly prevents MPlayer from buffering any data before
playing it back, unless data is arriving faster than it can be played.
The man page does not mention any default value, and I do not remember
seeing one mentioned in the past, so it is possible that the switch will
have no effect by default; however, it can still be useful for
temporarily disabling caching if you have set the '-cache' option in
your config file.

Turns off the cache feature. The cache feature caches the file into your
system's memory before playing the file. You must enable the cache feature
and set its parameters. If you turn the cache off with nocache and if it was
never set it in the first place, then -nocache is the same as having cache
enable with a cache setting of 0.

http performance depends on the speed of your http connection. Your
performance on http is a reflection on the performance of your http
connection, not the performance of mplayer.

Carl,

Thank you for your reply.  I was not reporting a problem with mplayer
but asking for some help with configuration.  I figured that someone
on the list had worked through a similar issue or perhaps (I'm sure)
more knowledgeable about mplayer that may know of some filter scheme
to archive the desired result (DivX or MPEG2 output to an RGB
480x272x24bpp LCD).

I did go ahead and built from subversion (revision 24588).  I
basically ran into the same issue where all it would send to my LCD
(wired RGB24) was BRG24.  I'm looking for a way to force the output to
RGB.

Thanks
Jim

is there any way to stop mplayer from continually repositioning itself
within the desktop?  I use mplayer and often have multiple instances open
at once for such tasks as comparing video footage side by side.  When
seeking back to the beginning of a video, the player window will move
itself from where I placed it to the center of the desktop.  This is
very aggravating when I have several windows arranged and am trying to
work with portions of the video close to the beginning.

compiled from todays cvs.

seems to happen with libmpeg2, but not with ffmpeg.  No idea why using a
different codec affects whether the player sends new window coordinates
to the vo or not.

I'm having no luck getting this working, but I'm not much of a bash
scripter. Is gregping  "ps -ux" for mplayer not the right way to get
the PID?

Many programs, such as Firefox and Amarok, have a %U option that tells
the program to open the document in an existing window if there is
one. Has mPlayer not such an option?

gnome-mplayer has such a feature

Dotan,

You can use gnome-mplayer and use a dbus method to replace the existing
content in gnome-mplayer (wrapper for mplayer)

To send command to ALL running gnome-mplayers (multihead applications)
dbus-send  --type=signal / com.gnome.mplayer.Open
string:'/path/to/movie.mov'

When controlid is specified (gnome-mplayer --controlid=[controlid])
dbus-send  --type=signal /control/[controlid] com.gnome.mplayer.Open
string:'/path/to/movie.mov'

http://dekorte.homeip.net/download

is where you can get it.

On my system, Fedora 7, ps -ux doesn't work; instead it wants "ps
ux", no hyphen.  Not sure what you're doing with the output.  Remember
that you'll get the PID  for the grep command too.

Hello everybody !
I`m new to the list and I have an problem with mplayerOur CATV ( Cable TV ) provider does not respect the standard frequency table so i have to scan first of all with dscaler the corect frequency table and put it on some script for mplayer( actually on geexbox tv.conf ).

In Dscaler the frequency are something like that:

270.9375 - EuroSport
294.9375 - MTV
311.0625 - VH1
318.8125 - Hallmark

and so on.


My question is : How can i setup the frequency of the channel instead of channel number ?

Thank you in advance !!

With respect ,

Aygun

Hi Dan,

I see Nico Sabbi has already replied to your message. Generally speaking,
the three issues of 24000/1001 -> 25fps conversion, a/v synchronisation and
doubling framerate in certain instances are very well explained in the
latest documentation. If you download MPlayer.htm it contains all
documentation, otherwise get chapter 14.

Regards,
Francois

Message-ID: <532B77054B89D711B8D70002B3A0F75D05F12318@panda.datavoice.co.za>

Hi All,

I'm planning my first DVD-compliant mencoder session. The DVD will have one
audio track only, which I understand needs to be one of PCM, MPEG-1 Layer 2
(MP2) or AC-3. The source audio is PCM stereo (inside a DV AVI file). PCM is
uncompressed so that won't be the final format. I understand that MP2 can be
either VBR or CBR - if I picked that, I'd probably go for CBR to avoid any
synchronisation issues.

However, I can't find much information about AC-3 characteristics in the
MPlayer documentation. Which of VBR or CBR can it do, and most crucially,
how does its quality and compressability compare to that of MP2 (in the case
of a stereo track in case that makes any difference)?

I am not averse to finger grease and plan to find the answers empirically by
experimenting, but if a kind soul could help save me some time with some
well-chosen pointers I'd be really grateful.

Thank you,
Francois

Thanks, I've installed Kplayer, which seems to have the feature that I need.

Is there no bugzilla for Mplayer? All I could find was the Launchpad
bugzilla, which I think is specific to Ubuntu, no?

Thanks.

because lavc's ac3 encoder encodes only in CBR mode
and doesn't produce great results

to my ears twolame and toolame produce much better results
than lavc's ac3 already at 128 kb/s

I suggest you edit stream/frequencies.c and write-in your own

Believe me, I do appreciate all of your help.  It was just that this
particular disk was a bit of a rush job and the fact that it was taking 4
hours (time to upgrade my computer I think :)) to encode (or is it decode)
only to find the a/v problem when it was in a standalone dvd player.  Anyway
I have some options to try and now I have only 2 hours remaining with the
harddup added to my command line.

Thank You all

Dan

Thank you, Nico.

IIRC there's a suggestion somewhere in the MPlayer documentation that
twolame evolved from toolame. Is twolame superior, and in what respect(s)?

Thank you,

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Controlling/restart several instances of mplayer
Message-ID: <20070921102218.30340@gmx.net>

Hello,

I?m running serveral streaming-instances of mplayer. Is there a way to check out the PID of each instance or save the PID during the start in a variable to check if it?s still running?
My goal is to restart a instance automatically if the stream hung up.
Any idea is appreciated. 

Best regards
Thomas

in no respect: the encoding code is unchanged. Its only advantage
is that twolame is ~maintained and still available, not so for toolame

fbdev currently only supports BGR, because none of the standard PC
hardware uses RGB, and that is after all the main development platform.

These two are only a mere 350 kHz from e.g. US-Cable channels 32 and 36,

But actually these altogether look more like channels SR16, SR19, S22

Read the manual of your shell. If it is bash, esp. $! and jobs -p.

Message-ID: <846f3e320709210939t391ce57elb6981c4e1efcb837@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I built Mplayer with DirectFb support and i can able to play media
files in mplayer.

Now i need GUI for Mplayer that should not dependant on X11 library.

The GUI should support Directfb.

While building mplayer i will disable gui with --disable-gui option
and add --enable-directfb.
Is there any GTK2 based GUI as Front end for Mplayer that should run
on Directfb.

If any one have idea about this please let me know.

Thanks,
Sreenvias

No offense taken, I could use a good RTFM for that one. I simply
googled "mplayer bugzilla" and, failing that, looked at the mplayer
homepage. For most projects, if that's not enough to find bugzilla,
it's because there is none...

I mounted a directory (/mnt/nfs) via NFS, and played the vide clip in the 
mounted folder:
mplayer /mnt/nfs/hd.avi -loop 10 -nocache

Using System Monitor of 'server' machine, I saw the network traffic showed 
in the bottom curve. The red cruve (the hilly shape)  indicates video 
traffic was being sent to 'workstation'. I actually expected there would 
be 10 hilly shapes like that since I looped for 10 time and nocache. But 
it did not. What is the reason behind that?

It's called the client machine having it's own cache independent of mplayer

OK, OK, it's the command arguments, it's what I typed on the command line.

Only with samples that contain transmission errors. I snipped a section of 
the file, called it: crash_with_transmission_errors_and_xvmc and uploaded 
it to incoming.

Yes, it does require ffmpeg12mc to crash. The shortest line that causes a 
crash is -vo xvmc -vc ffmpeg12mc

Thank you for your help.

My client runs FC6 64-bit. Do you have a suggestioin to turn the client 
machine caching off?

It should be in the documentation for Linux. But why do you  want to turn
the caching off? Caching is a benefit, not a curse.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] internet camera
Message-ID: <46F439EB.4060706@pagestation.com>

I have an internet camera with a limit of 4 connects.
mplayer plays the camera fine. However I wish to provide more than 4 
connections for viewing.

What kind of command line do I need for mplayer to connect to the 
camera, and then provide that
feed to other connections? I'm only looking at about 10 connections so I 
hope mplayer can do it.

Thanks,

Jerry

MPlayer can't "provide" anything.  It's not any kind of a server,
which is exactly what you happen to need.

Can I record a stream to mp3 using windows in one step using mplayer?
e.g.,

Some command arguments like this:
mplayer --dump-stream --format mp3 --out_file=file.mp3 <url.rm>

Is this possible with mplayer?  If not, does someone know of a command line
application that can do this in one statement?  I know it can be done with lame
in 2 statements, but I really need to do it as 1 in "windows"...

It seems caused by a QuickTime or QT SDK update, here's some link I

No. '-dumpstream' just copies the exact stream it receives, without
modifying it. This is intentional, and probably could not be changed
even if it were not.

You are not asking to dump the stream, but to transcode it. For that,
you need an encoding tool which can read from the appropriate type of
stream.

MEncoder is the encoding companion to MPlayer, but it cannot do the job
on its own, because it requires a video stream in its encoded files.

I would suggest that you look at the FFmpeg project.

 Hi,

 I built Mplayer with DirectFb support and i can able to play media
 files in mplayer.

 Now i need GUI for Mplayer that should not dependant on X11 library.

 The GUI should support Directfb.

 While building mplayer i will disable gui with --disable-gui option
 and add --enable-directfb.
 Is there any GTK2 based GUI as Front end for Mplayer that should run
 on Directfb.

 If any one have idea about this please let me know.

 Thanks,
 Sreenvias

GTK/GTK2 is X11 dependant.

if the stream contains at least a video track you can use
$ mencoder -of rawaudio -oac lame -lameopts ... url.rm
otherwise
$ mencoder  /dev/zero  -demuxer rawvideo  -rawvideo w=200:h=200:fps=25  \

There is a DirectFb patch to GTK2.
I applied Directfb patch to GTK2.
I tested GTK2 dependant application with DirectFb patch. It is working
fine on DirectFb.
Same thing i need to do for MPlayer GUI also.

Message-ID: <20070922140555.0c321ff6@localhost.localdomain>

Hi

is there the support of thread-level parallelism in MPlayer or ffmpeg ? I want to play h.264
files with MPlayer, is there any sense to upgrade my CPU to  Athlon64X2  or  Intel Core 2 Duo ?

Message-ID: <b245e6760709220307p424a0cfdr41955602e19c8132@mail.gmail.com>

Hi, I've been trying to compile svn mplayerosx for mac for some days
now, and must be doing something wrong.
I'm on a macbook 10.4.10 and I can complie mplayer without many
problems, everything works fine (even apple remote !!), but, ...
If I follow the details on INSTALL.txt:

svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk/ main
svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayerosx/trunk/ mplayerosx
export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3
make mplayer

I get -> make: Nothing to be done for `mplayer'.

I changed the mplayer folder inside mplayerosx into a symlink to main
(mplayer source) and compiled it separately.

But when I do the make &&  make dist within the mplayerosx folder it
builds a .dmg only with the gui, not able of playing anything.

Si the Makefile really including anything, with my (limited)
knowledge, couldn't find anything.
Any help will be appreciated.

Cheers

-lavdopts threads=2 (interestingly it seems to be currently broken,
at least with hdtv mpeg2; can anyone confirm? )

FFmpeg supports slice based threading. That means it can use as many 
threads as the h264 file has slices.

The implications behind that are the following :
  - if you didn't create the file you want to play, you don't know 
whether you'll be able to play it using several threads or not before 
actually playing it
  - recent x264 revisions use a frame based parallelism, and don't 
support slices anymore, so the main open source provider of h264 stream 
isn't "thread compatible" with ffmpeg at the present time
  - most professionnal encoders use a sliced based approach to encoding. 
So it's highly probable that you'll be able to decode Apple's trailers, 
and broadcasted HD videos using both threads.

Additionnally, don't minimize the decoding performance of ffmpeg on a 
Core 2 Duo with a single thread. With that, you should still be able to 
decode most videos ( for reference, a year and a half ago, I could 
decode 960x1080i50 @ 5.5 mbits with a A64 3000+. Since then, ffmpeg did 
improve ( more than 10%, especially in the CABAC decoding department ), 
and a Core 2 is much more powerfull than a A64 ).

After all, you don't need to decode a video at 100+fps, you just need to 
decode it in realtime ( i.e 25/30 fps ).

Regards,

Mathieu

The compilation for mplayer osx is somekind of broken. When you do the
make in mplayerosx, you can build a MPlayer OSX in the build/Release
directory of mplayerosx, the program is working, just lack the command
line mplayer program in the correct directory.
You need manually copy the mplayer you built in your mplayer directory
to certain directory in mplayerosx.
That's External_Binaries/mplayer_intel.app/Contents/MacOS/ for your
macbook build.
I also copy mplayer to build/Release/MPlayer\
OSX.app/Contents/Resources/External_Binaries/mplayer_intel.app/Contents/MacOS/
to avoid clean and rebuild MPlayer OSX

Is there any way to just copy the trailer of a DVD?  I'm interested in
the trailer and tune for Gokusen (not that that matters).

Thanks,

Subject: [MPlayer-users] MXF from Grass Valley Infinity camera
Message-ID: <000901c7fd53$d25e8070$0200a8c0@indigobox>

Hi,

I'm trying to play an MXF file generated by an Infinity camera. The camera's 
settings were to shoot 59.94i video and from the accompanying XML, it looks 
like it's field-wrapped. Image data is JPEG2000. I have the MXF files and 
accompanying XML, which I can make available (106Mb total).

Mplayer produces a 1920x540 VO, so it's presumably treating fields as 
frames. No any image is shown - just the overlay green, and there is no 
audio. During playback, it says things like:

Too many video packets in the buffer: (55 in 8405940 bytes).
Maybe you are playing a non-interleaved stream/file or the codec failed?
For AVI files, try to force non-interleaved mode with the -ni option.

After a few seconds, it starts saying:

Frame too small! (152876<2073600) Wrong format?

...well yes, I'd have to agree, wrong format! Does mplayer have a JPEG2000 
decoder?

Here's the output, after which it goes through the RAW decoder init attempt 
a lot of times and fails, then opens the window and plays nothing.

What do you mean by "trailer"?

I could guess that you might mean any one of:

The opening intro (commonly called the OP).

The closing credits (commonly called the ED).

The trailers which advertise other episodes or even other series
(commonly called "trailers").

...and possibly a few other things as well.

In most cases, all of these will be separate VOBs and separate titles on
the DVD; you will then just need to find the correct one and copy that
by whatever method you have chosen. (Since you're asking here, I presume
that you're planning to use MPlayer and/or MEncoder.)

Closing credits are what I'm after in this case.

I thought of that, but it's not a separate title (I checked them all),
just the tail end on another.

If you want some form of automation, you could try -vf blackframe and write 
a script to parse its output. The rate of success will depend on whether 
there are all-black frames between the movie and the closing credits and no 
black frames within the credits and the movie (at least not near the end; 
halfway the movie wouldn't matter if your script knows the length of the 
movie). Have your script output an EDL-file and use that to skip the movie 
part and only encode/copy the closing credits. I have no idea how good this 
will work (if at all) but it might be worth a try. Otherwise, you have to 
create your EDL file manually. See man mplayer for details 
(-edl, -hr-edl-seek).

Thanks Kevin,

I tried adding to the command line however I still get the same response.

I tried removing the -fixed-vo line, but that results in the same sort of 
thing happening as happens with the non slave commands in that it drops back 
to the background screen between each play and at the end of the final clip, 
drops back again to the screen.

There is only one instance of mplayer active when I have the small screen 
sitting on top of the full screen too.

Any more ideas anyone.. please..

thanks.

Peter.

Hi

is it possible to work with MPlayer's svn-server by proxy ?

I read http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#proxy , but it will not help me.


[global] 
# http-proxy-exceptions = *.exception.com, www.internal-site.org 
http-proxy-host = 127.0.0.1 
http-proxy-port = 3128

svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer

OK... I've just discovered that this behaviour is also seen if I run 
mplayer -vo x11 -fixed-vo -slave -quiet -fs filename from the command line 
and then add another file with loadfile file2.

mplayer also ends when the clip finishes, despite the -quiet command line.

This is getting to be very annoying...

Thanks.

Peter.

Thanks so much!!
I figured I should be something like that but didn't know exactly
what. I'll see if I've got the time to make a diff to the mistaken
README.

Cheers.

Try creating a fifo (the mkfifo command), then run mplayer -dumpstream 
into that fifo.

Next you'll need some way of duplicating the data in the fifo.

You'll probably need to write some kind of program to accept network 
connections. It reads the fifo once, and then copies the data to anyone 
who connects to it.

Pre-written programs you should check into are netkit and tee (with tee 
you can duplicate data, but you need to watch out what happens when no 
one reads from the fifo - it will stop the writer (mplayer) and that's a 
problem).

Or you can forget the fifo and just write a file and let people read from 
it, but that will take up diskspace. You'll need to rotate the file 
periodically.

I'm sure there are tons of programs out there that can act as media 
servers. You can point them at the fifo, or a file.

That may be, but the MPlayer documentation says that only PCM and AC3 are allowed
for NTSC DVDs. If lavc's AC3 encoder "doesn't produce great results", what do
you suggest?

formally yes, but AFAIK there's no ntsc dvd that doesn't read MP2

As you can see, MPlayer's SVN is only available via the svn:// protocol,
not http://, hence any http proxy setting is irrelevant.

I deceided this problem with transparent proxy and iptables. Now is ok.

Yes.

It's called hard subtitles.

In Linux try avidemux for a gui. I don't know if mencoder can do it.

Hi all,

it's long time ago I'd like to send a request for a new feature, namely MIDI
playing from within/or through MPlayer:
first of all you must know that TiMidity isn't a "real" MIDI player but an
application who transforms a mid file into an audio wav, and so it comes to
our ears through the audio device.
My question is: isn't it possible to add a plugin for the Mplayer so that
when encountering a mid file online or as background on a website, the
Mplayer should be able to play it by using the right application, and the
right application is here Timidity?

Funny thing is - a long time ago that was possible, though xmms-timidity
plugin and xmms plugins support in mplayer. However, since mplayer
migrated to gtk2 it can't be done easily AFAIR, since xmms support
requires linking to gtk1 and there was some kind of problem with linking
both of them (maybe it was something related to my system though, can't
say for sure).

Anyway xmms-timidity plugin really sucked, it was kind of broken and
it seems that it used timidity incorrectly, so sound was worse than
when you played back midi file through timidity - mplayer also suffered
from this, of course. It was working fine in other aspects though, like
seeking.

So as quick solution, you might try recompiling mplayer without gui and
with xmms support, maybe it'll work. You'll need xmms, xmms-devel and
xmms-timidity plugins installed though.


As for the right solution, probably it would be making mplayer use alsa
midi/sequencer devices. You'll need to run timidity or fluidsynth as
midi server, and mplayer would work as regular midi client this way.
Like pmidi, amidi and so on.. It'll support not only timidity, but
fluidsynth and h/w midi passthrough this way.

On the other hand, this is dreams ;) I hardly believe mplayer would ever
work as correct midi client.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Crash when dumping pcm with -ss (start position)
Message-ID: <20070925130156.GA3481@section-eight>

Hello all,

I was trying to extract a little snippet of audio from a movie when
mplayer crashed. I tried some more sources and so far I haven't found an
avi file that doesn't crash mplayer when supplying a start position on
the command line - e.g. -ss 5:00

OTOH when trying to extract a snippet from a DVD mplayer doesn't crash.
Also when dumping the whole audio stream from _whatever_ source it
doesn't.

This is mplayer SVN on Gentoo x86. The crash happens with mplayer CFLAGS
as well as with my own less aggressive CFLAGS. It also happens with the
current Gentoo mplayer version 1.0_rc1_p20070824.

After a crash the audiodump.wav is 44 Bytes of size if that matters.
I'm going to attach the verbose capture of the mplayer console output to
this mail.

If there's any interest I can try to add a gdb backtrace/whatever, but
I haven't got this gdb stuff figured out because the guide at
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_core
doesn't (yet) work for me.

Regards
Sebastian

Right now it seems that the '*' key is bound by mplayer.

How do I unbind it?

I have made other bindings before for MOUSE_BTN2 and MOUSE_BTN0
but how do I unbind something that mplayer has bound?

Hello Reimar,

thank you for taking interest. OK, I'm aiming at producing the mplayer.bug
file with all the relevant gdb output of the crash as described in the
mplayer docs.

So I create a command file holding these lines:

bt
disass $pc-32 $pc+32
info all-registers

Then I run:

gdb /usr/bin/mplayer --core=core -batch --command=command_file >
mplayer.bug

But all I get is this:

/home/sk/film/core: No such file or directory.
No stack.
/home/sk/film/command_file:2: Error in sourced command file:
No registers.

This happens with mplayer SVN compiled a minute ago and gdb 6.6 (stock
Gentoo x86 gdb). I still have the first gdb command running, but it
doesn't create a "core" file if thati's what the second gdb command is
looking for.

Regards
Sebastian

Subject: [MPlayer-users] XV Help
Message-ID: <d6d86fa30709251110m4e7977ebs36d767e9f091cba2@mail.gmail.com>

I know this isn't a mplayer bug, but everywhere else I went, I haven't
gotten any help. And since I know how brilliant the people are helping
out on this list I was hoping I could get some help.

Recently after I applied an update to Slackware 12.0 to kdebase and
kdelibs, my xv video coloring has been bleeding. I don't know of a
better way to put it. On some videos it just increases (usually when
there is a lot of red) until it is almost completely red.

Currently I can use the gl extension although on my laptop it takes a
lot more power and resources and it also drains the battery more
quickly.

I was just hoping to get some pointers from this list on where I
should be looking or if I should be recompiling some software.

Thanks for any help
Jeremy

Subject: [MPlayer-users] streaming mplayer
Message-ID: <46F96827.80506@pagestation.com>

I am starting mplayer with a command like:
 mplayer  http://camera/img/video.asf  -dumpstream -dumpfile 
/tmp/fifofile.mp4

I then wrote a small program that reads from /tmp/fifofile.mp4 and sends 
it out over
connecting sockets.

The first mplayer  connection reads and shows the camera data.
The second mplayer connection says "filling cache" and never displays 
anything.

Is there something wrong about what  I am attempting?
Can I not just "relay" the mp4 data that is read from the fifo?
I also tried "mencoder -o fifofile.mp4 -oac copy -ovc copy 
http://camera/img/video.asf"
but I get the same result.

Thanks,

Jerry

always, but it should be automatic: svn update updates
both mplayer's tree and libav* if you don't add --ignore-externals

The 'core' file would, as far as I have ever been able to tell, be
created (by the kernel?) when the crash happens, with the message "Core
dumped". If one was not created (and I have never seen one), then you
should not be reading the "core dump" part of the bug-reporting docs;
instead of using a nonexistent core file you will need to run the
crashing command from inside of gdb itself, then after it crashes issue
the suggested commands by hand.

IOW:

Does that work any better?

Yes, thanks. I wasn't able to get my puter to dump the core - tried
raising the core dump limit but that didn't help.

Anyway, attached you can find the gdb output.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] ffmpeg: problem when converting photos to SWF
Message-ID: <3e0a44a00709251905y78376d71lcf73bd2edebd2a70@mail.gmail.com>

Am experimenting with use of ffmpeg to convert photos such as JPEGs to
SWF Flash files.

For example, I can use:

ffmpeg -i myphoto.jpg myphoto.swf

It will successfully convert say a 1.5MB JPEG file into a 156kb SWF
Flash file. However, if I display the SWF flash file in Firefox, it
only displays a white page unless I right click on the "white" image
and choose Settings. Then the SWF image displays correctly.

Of course, what I am interested in is the compression and quality
capabilities of the SWF Flash format, and not a movie, since I only
want to display a single frame.

Wondering what parameters I can set so that the SWF file displays
immediately when viewed in Firefox?

thanks

Subject: [MPlayer-users] mencoder: Removing black bars creates black line
	artifacts
Message-ID: <46F9CA7D.8060301@sfu.ca>

Hey everyone.  I love mencoder.. It's great for batching up mpgs I've 
recorded with MythTV to convert to AVI.

I've figured out how to remove the black bars at the top and bottom of 
widescreen programming.  Presently I'm using the following commands to 
transcode files:

mencoder filename.mpg -quiet  -vf lavcdeint -vf crop=704:352 -ovc xvid 
-oac mp3lame -xvidencopts pass=1 -o /dev/null
mencoder filename.mpg -quiet  -vf lavcdeint -vf crop=704:352 -ovc xvid 
-oac mp3lame -xvidencopts pass=2:bitrate=1300 -o filename.avi

And this works well, producing an avi file with the black bars removed.

However, the quality of that avi is different than if I don't crop the 
file.  When the scene pans with a fast horizontal motion, I see black 
horizontal lines, perhaps 1-2 pixels tall across parts of the image that 
don't appear if I transcode to avi without the cropping.   It's subtle, 
but bad enough that I've thrown out the avi rather than the larger mpg file.

Here's a sample of the file uncropped, and the same frame (or very close 
one) uncropped:

Uncropped, Clean: http://www.internetgenealogy.com/mencoder/snapshot1.png
Cropped, with evil lines: 
http://www.internetgenealogy.com/mencoder/snapshot2.png

Note how some objects, like the brims of the soldier's hats, have 
striking horizontal lines in the second snapshot.  It's not in every 
frame, but it's annoying.  In other scenes, like those with quickly 
moving shadows (like peoples faces and the shadows cast by their noses) 
the effect is quite striking.

(This is from the new Ken Burns PBS series "The War" if you're curious).

Am I perhaps running the crop command incorrectly?   Is there a better

Hi,

I've recently downloaded a codec that works on top of Quicktime (6.5+).
Is there a way to use that codec with mplayer / mencoder? If so, how do
I go about importing it? I think I know which .dll files have been

You can only read from a fifo once. (If you try to read from it more than 
once each reader will get alternating lines.)

When the second connection occurs it sends data starting from the middle 
of the file (I'm assuming your code copies the fifo data, I didn't check).

I don't think mp4 files can be played from the middle. They probably need 
the header.

Try a different file format that can be 'restarted' as it's called, or 
resynchronized, i.e. played from the middle of the file. MPEG2 can do it, 
there might be a way of re-containering the mp4 to do that, without 
spending the cpu to reencode.

You might also try always sending the header to a connecting player, then 
sending video data from the middle. That might work, if the player is 
error-tolerant. I don't know how big the mp4 header is.

Test it:

Use dump stream on the connecting mplayers, see what they put in the 
stream. Try your program on an mpeg2, and try it on a real file rather 
that a fifo.

Also: if you don't read from a fifo the writer will block and wait for a 
reader, not being able to write will cause mplayer to disconnect from the 
stream it's reading. Make sure your program always reads from the fifo, 
even if no one is listening to it. Or have it start mplayer automatically 
on the first connection, and close mplayer when no one is listening.

You may want to use yadif instead of lavcdeint too.

If you're working on Windows, have a look at videohelp.com (it covers other
platforms too, but to a lesser extent). VirtualDub is a good tool to start
off with, and there's a tool section dedicated to VirtualDub, including
subtitle plug-ins.

I don't think mplayer can do that, but why not write a batch file for the

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Decreased MPEG-4 compression quality from changing
	pixel aspect r	atio?
Message-ID: <532B77054B89D711B8D70002B3A0F75D05F12343@panda.datavoice.co.za>

Hi All,

The below applies to MPEG-4 compression, specifically XviD but it probably
applies to all codecs doing intra-frame compression.

MPlayer.htm warns against using scaling for "squaring pixels" (i.e. scaling
the movie dimensions to achieve desired display aspect ratio) and correctly
substantiates why. However, an issue that's never really explored is the
following: is it possible that modifying the pixel aspect ratio
(horizontal_pixels / vertical_pixels) could cause an additional loss of
quality during compression?

For instance, some PAL DV and PAL DVD sources use 720 x 576 pixel
resolution. That gives a pixel aspect ratio of 720 / 576 = 1.25, whereas the
display aspect ratio is actually 4/3 ~ 1.33. Now, to reduce frame size
during encoding one could use a resolution of say 528 x 416 which yields a
pixel aspect ratio of ~1.27 which is close enough to the original. One
relies upon the display aspect ratio encoded into the container, as well as
the player during playback to render the proper 4/3 display aspect ratio.

Alternatively, one could scale the 720 x 576 movie to say 528 x 400 (e.g.
using the CQ formulae in MPlayer.htm) which yields a pixel aspect ratio of
1.32 (~4/3). In other words, the movie dimensions are scaled to the display
aspect ratio in this example (which may have its uses).

However, because in the latter example the pixel aspect ratio has been
modified, upon display pixels are now relatively closer together or further
apart (more so in one dimension than the other) than before scaling.
Typically, intra-frame compression relies heavily upon adjacent and
neighbouring pixel information. If relative spatial separation between
pixels is now modified by changing pixel aspect ratio, doesn't this cause
the compressor weighting of neighbouring information to become too heavy or
too light?

On the other hand, if the pixel aspect ratio ISN'T changed, but differs from
the display aspect ratio (as in the first example above), does the
compressor need to take into account the fact that on-screen inter-pixel
distances might be say 1:1.25 pixels:pixels, instead of 1:1? If so, how -
does the compressor use the aspect ratio provided in the codec configuration
(assuming it is)?

I'd be grateful for any light shed on what, if any, effect changing pixel
aspect ratio might have on MPEG-4 compression, and on what to do to minimise
it if needed.

Thanks,
Francois

Message-ID: <532B77054B89D711B8D70002B3A0F75D05F1233A@panda.datavoice.co.za>

Hi All,

Congratulations!

For the past couple of years I'd been transferring DV home movies to AVI
files on CD with XviD compression. Because the originals (tapes) get
overwritten sooner or later, I wanted to be sure of getting the best quality
possible for the available amount of storage space. All told, I probably
spent a person-week or two comparing various settings and results before
deciding upon a final configuration.

Due to circumstance, that configuration got lost. I spent this past long
weekend recreating it, using old footage for reference (resolution, bitrate
etc.). When I was done I moved on to other things, and came across the
following formulae in MPlayer.htm:

ResY = INT(SQRT( 1000*Bitrate/25/ARc/CQ )/16) * 16 and ResX = INT( ResY *
ARc / 16) * 16

If you plug in my settings, such as bitrate and aspect ratio, you arrive at
exactly the same resolution I had arrived at by brute force. To me that
simultaneously validates the settings I'd been using, as well as those
formulae for future use. Very useful to know!

Suggestion:

Is there any way of modifying mencoder to record for future reference codec,
multiplexer etc. configurations as, say, private data in popular container
formats?

Francois

In my input.conf it's bound (by default) as follows:

* volume 1

If yours also has that line, either comment that out, or bind that

This is, therefore, not an MPlayer question.

 From the rest of your description, I'm not sure it's even an FFmpeg
question (it looks more like a matter of browser configuration), but at
the very least it would be less inappropriately asked on ffmpeg-user
rather than here.

You're definitely in a wrong way if you're trying to do it using ffmpeg. 
There are many flash tools which can create such simple SWF files like 
yours. See for example www.flashdig.com Converting your JPEG into a video 
(your SWF now contains a one-frame video stream) you lose a lot of its 
quality (look at the file size!). There is also free SWF SDK, which lets 
create a small software utilities, which can perform such simple operations 
like JPEG=>SWF conversion.

Your "white screen" effect is a sort of bug either in ffmpeg or in the flash 
plugin, which occures when the video stream contains only one frame.

HTH!

Excellent.  The lines disappear on my 20 second sample with your new command line options.  I'm guessing my version applied the filters independently.

I'll investigate chaining vf filters and learn more about yadif vs lavcdeint.

I'll try a much longer transcode now to see if it works.  Thanks for the help!

Excellent advice - those are interlacing artifacts you're seeing. Part of
the reason you only see lack of proper deinterlacing in your cropped video
(at the same physical display size) is probably because it has less vertical
pixel resolution (due to cropping).

The latest MPlayer documentation has a wealth of information on the
principles of cropping, scaling and deinterlacing, especially in section 14.
Here's an example: "Also, deinterlacing should be done after cropping [1]
and before scaling." Remember to try out additional deinterlacing mechanisms
and options as Guillaume suggests.

As an aside, from the documentation I had understood that a proper filter
chain is constructed either with the -vf filter1,filter2,...filtern
construct, or by using -vf-{add|pre|del|clr}. I'd therefore use one of those
approaches as opposed to the -vf filter1 -vf filter2 you have above.

Message-ID: <55274f1c0709260659w41f9f284s65a50424ef63d46d@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I converted a video to FLV format. Now the audio and video are not in sync.

The video plays fast and finishes first, audio continue playing.

You can see the video at

Source: http://72.9.154.113/1.wmv (size: 691 kb)
Converted Video having problem: http://72.9.154.113/1.flv (size: 716 kb)

You can play the video with flash player and see the problem at

http://72.9.154.113/1.html

The command used to convert is

/usr/bin/mencoder 1.wmv -o 1.flv -of lavf -oac mp3lame -lameopts abr:br=56
-ovc lavc -lavcopts
vcodec=flv:vbitrate=500:mbd=2:mv0:trell:v4mv:cbp:last_pred=3 -srate 22050

mplayer installed from svn, version is - MEncoder dev-SVN-r24587-4.1.1

Can anyone tell how to fix the problem ?

Thanks,

Thanks Giacomo, its working fine now.

http://72.9.154.113/2.html

The convert command have many arguments that i do not understand properly,
can you please check my command and tell if any of the argument need a
change ?

/usr/bin/mencoder 1.wmv -o 2.flv -of lavf -oac mp3lame -lameopts abr:br=56
-ovc lavc -lavcopts
vcodec=flv:vbitrate=500:mbd=2:mv0:trell:v4mv:cbp:last_pred=3 -srate 22050
-ofps 24 -vf harddup

Sorry for not reading all the docs :-)

Thanks a lot.

No. Actually, it only applied the crop filter. Only the last -vf option

Pixels can't move closer together or further apart.  Downscaling to half
size may merge two pixels worth of information into a single pixel, but
that's all.  It's just a single pixel of information to the encoder. 

Display aspect ratio may cause the end result to display a higher
density of pixels in one direction or another, but doesn't affect the
actual video (encoding) in any way at all.

Scaling, cropping, etc. are done after decoding the video, and before
reencoding it.  All 'decisions' made by the codec happen on an arbitrary
set of pixels it is supplied with.  It has no knowledge of what the
display aspect ratio will be, and does not care how the video was
previously encoded before.

After doing some research on yadif (about 60 seconds after my first reply), Google sent me quickly to this page, and the first interlacing image was my horizontal black lines.... It all fell into place within seconds, and the ignored vf filter was obvious!  (I should have put "crop" and "lavcdeint" in the opposite order, would have been very obvious then.)

Thank you all for your help.  My avi looks great this morning!

First off... this is an old version of mplayer. They are constantly
making changes through svn and ask that you try later versions before
you post bugs.

However, I don't think this problem is related to the version you are running.

You could try using a different vo. Try

mplayer -vo help

This will tell you all the video outs you have available. Try some
simple ones such as xv or gl or as a last resort x11. If one of these
work you can put it in the mplayer config file.

Good luck

I don't know if it's possible, but I'd be curious to know what file you can't
decode with vanilla mplayer that Quicktime can decode (with or without codec) -
what kind of decoder is it that mplayer doesn't contain?

There's a site called The Dancing Channels
<http://www.thedancingchannels.com/> that provide streaming and video
files that make use of a quicktime plugin from Infinite Video (a
subsidiary of Even Technologies) that they're calling PSI_V (pronounced
sigh vee).

According to http://telephonyonline.com/mag/telecom_mpeg_alternative/ ,
PSI_V compresses standard-definition video to 750 kb/s and HD to 3 Mb/s.

I can watch the videos on Windows, but I don't always have access to a
Windows box.

Message-ID: <200709270050.34362.rvm3000@ya.com>

I've been reported that smplayer doesn't work properly under Windows 98 and 
Windows ME.

I installed Win 98 in a virtual machine, and indeed the problem seems that 
mplayer ignores (or doesn't get) the slave commands. I tested with another 
GUI (MPUI) and it has exactly the same problem.

Tested several mplayer builds, including 1.0rc1, with the same result.

Is this a bug in mplayer, or simply it's a limitation of those versions of 
Windows?

Right. Compile the source. Install it.

./configure --enable-dvdnav --with -dvdnav-config=/usr/bin/dvdnav-config

or wherever you  have dvdnav-config installed.

First off... this is an old version of mplayer. They are constantly
making changes through svn and ask that you try later versions before
you post bugs.

However, I don't think this problem is related to the version you are
running.

You could try using a different vo. Try

mplayer -vo help

This will tell you all the video outs you have available. Try some
simple ones such as xv or gl or as a last resort x11. If one of these
work you can put it in the mplayer config file.

Good luck

As the current ebuild is about a year old

[I] media-libs/libdvdnav
     Available versions:  0.1.10
     Installed versions:  0.1.10(02:01:22 PM 11/19/2006)

Are you going to put out the next ebuild soon?

Subject: [MPlayer-users] liba52 downmixing 6ch audio
Message-ID: <61cd7bac0709262258u4d63898alf19dc7ab81824eb7@mail.gmail.com>

Someone pointed out to me that my mplayer builds (for win32) for some
reason had offset downmixing of 6ch AC3 content. The audio seemed to
be much more prevalent in the right speakers then in the left. I
checked into it myself, and it definitely did not sound right. I
checked in other more well known win32 mplayer builds, and they all
had the same issue. Which at least discounted me making some huge
monumental error while building. So then I was poking around in the
liba52 sources and noticed there were two modes to downmix to 2
channels. Either A52_DOLBY or A52_STEREO. I then proceeded to build
a52dec and tried a 6ch sample with normal stereo output -o win (or
also wav) and then with -o windolby (or wavdolby). The samples with
the dolby downmixing had the exact same weird issue as with mplayer,
more sound being shifted to the right channels then the left. But the
normal stereo downmixing sounded correct, and equivalent to what one
would get using ffdshow with 2/0 stereo downmixing.

In "libmpcodecs\ad_liba52.c" all downmixing to 2ch is forced to the
A52_DOLBY mode, and A52_STEREO is commented out. This doesn't seem
right. The only reason to use dolby surround mixing would be if you
are outputting to a receiver. But if the file is already real 5.1
dolby, it would be foolish to downmix to dolby surround then output to
the receiver. So I'm just wondering, shouldn't this be set to use
A52_STEREO for downmixing to 2 channels? Or was there some reason it
was originally set to A52_DOLBY, it has apparently been like that for
ages. I'm guessing this is somehow a win32 build issue of liba52, as
it makes no sense that something like this could have been overlooked
for so long on *nix. Though somehow the issue has been equally
overlooked on win32 builds for so long. Or I just have made some
mistake myself. I've uploaded an AC3 6ch sample to the mplayer ftp
(liba52-6ch-downmixing.ac3). Can anyone else confirm this on
non-windows builds with a52dec? When the vocals hit it should be quite
noticeable.

In my own builds now at least I have uncommented A52_STEREO and
commented A52_DOLBY to fix the issue. Just thought I would share these
strange exploits. Though I'm guessing mplayer will be saying goodbye
to liba52 soon anyways with the new ffmpeg ac3 decoder on the way.

Thanks for your response, although I still remain convinced that changing
pixel aspect ratio will lead to loss of perceptual quality, something which
MPEG-4 designers seem not to have considered.

Kind regards,

Please note that this is possible with every encoder supported by
FFmpeg/MEncoder - it's the quality that makes the difference;-)

Subject: [MPlayer-users] mplayer problem with lirc
Message-ID: <405334.90781.qm@web53702.mail.re2.yahoo.com>

I'm using fedora 7, 64-bit edition. I've recently installed mplayer as a binary RPM package called mplayer-1.0-0.80.20070715svn.lvn7.x86_64.rpm, and as a dependency lirc also as a binary package called lirc-0.8.1-1.fc7.x86_64.rpm. It works fine except for the lirc support. When I start mplayer, I get the following error messages about lirc:
mplayer: could not connect to socket
mplayer: Connection refused
Failed to open LIRC support. You will not be able to use your remote control.
OK. I searched for a lot of help about this message in google and the archives of mplayer, and I found some hints.
First, I created an empty file called ~/lircrc.
Lirc isn't configured to run its daemons by default when the system boots, but this isn't a problem as I can configure it to start with each system boot. The problem is that even if I start it manually, mplayer immediately closes lirc daemons when it starts(yes, without posting any error messages about lirc). So, when I close mplayer and starts it over, if finds lirc not running(because mplayer closed lirc in the previous run) and it posts the error messages shown above again.
Another hint was to make sure that /dev/lirc has the access flags set to 666 with chmod. Actually, /dev/lirc on my system doesn't always exist; it's created on the fly when the lirc daemons start. However, I queried the access flags of /dev/lirc after starting and found it already set to 666.
I found some postings talking about something called lircc, but I haven't found any package on the internet(according to my search) containing such a program.
The main problem seems to be mplayer failing to start lirc when mplayer starts and mplayer stopping the lirc daemons if they're already running. Does anyone have an idea why this happens or how to overcome it?
Appreciating your feedback. Thanks for your support.

That one is the last stable from upstream, we're going to swith to the 
forked SVN snapshot from MPlayer now.

And we hit a snag with the Makefile, hopefully get it fixed soon.

I've been using lirc for quite some time, and haven't seen anything like
this at all.

Do other programs work properly with your LIRC installation?

try with -demuxer lavf and/or with vlc (that don't do the crazy

I tried this but as mentioned in my email - get an

Is this a bug in the current trunk? 
Did you get streaming to work with the command you

Thanks

mplayer -demuxer lavf test.mpg causes the video to play faster
than the audio. When the video reaches 30 seconds, the audio is
at about 26 seconds. Before, it was the other way around. Also,
the desync is smaller with -demuxer lavf.

I ran mencoder again, but I extended the length to 90 seconds.

1) MEncoder said, Video Stream 90.007 secs, Audio 90.016 secs
2) mplayer -identify says ID_LENGTH=80.75
3) PowerDVD (the software that came with my DVD burner) thinks
   that it is 1:26 (but it plays it in sync)
4) Media Player Classic thinks that it is 1:24, and also plays
   it in sync
5) As above with VLC

I don't have to telecine. I can just ofps 30000/1001 instead.
I only do it because I assume that duplicating frames wastes
bits. However, I need to be sure that the DVD player will
play it properly when I make the DVD.

did mencoder duplicate or drop frames when encoding?
did you verify that the source material was encoded at
exactly 24000/1001 fps?

It is a weekly anime series that I have been transcoding for years. I have not
made a DVD recently, because I can put 15 or more episodes on one DVD. The
episodes are always encoded by the same organization, and telecine always worked
in the past. mplayer -identify says that the frame rate of the source is 23.976,
other places in mplayer output say 23.98, but whenever I see numbers like that,
I always use 24000/1001 without a problem.

It is true that if I leave out -ofps 24000/1001, MEncoder halts with:
MPEG1/2 does not support 27021/1127 fps, but I never leave it out.

better add -fps 24000/1001 and remove -ofps instead: mencoder
won't have to deal with fps!=ofps

I imagine it just splits the video into chunks, and encodes
them independently on different machines.

You could do the same easily using something like avisplit to split the
file into however many chunks you have computers, and using ssh to copy
them over, and execute the mencoder command.  

Though, to get full quality, you really need to run the 1st pass on a
single system (rather fast if using 'turbo'), then very carefully split
the file on what should be I-frame boundaries, and the divx2pass.log
file at the exact same frames as the file, then do only the 2nd pass on
seperate machines.

Personally, I don't think either is worth the hassle, unless you have a
large number of rather slow systems, and also absolutely require fast
turnaround of each individual video for some strange reason.

I imagined that was what dvdrip must be doing, but is there a way to get
the same functionality of avisplit from mencoder? You see, the way
dvdrip clustering works, it relies on the source multimedia data to be
accessible on the cluster slaves. This is usually done via NFS, but
other virtual filesystems should work. It doesn't split the file so I
imagine transcode has a way to select "blocks" from it's input (so long
as it's random accessible ... is that even the right phrase?).

Can one break down an input video into sections and tell mencoder to
work on a certain section only? What would these "blocks" be? Frames?

Also, dvdrip clustering processes the audio as one whole block on the
machine with fastest access to the input source (usually the one which
has the file on its harddisk). I can't see why the first pass in a
2-pass encoding scheme couldn't be done that way.

I do have a couple of fast machines, and believe me ... after getting
used to dvdrip clustering, it's kind of hard going back to 1-machine
processing. It takes so much longer and, personally, I'd rather make use
of the otherwise spare cycles.

You need to have the developer's libraries installed for alsa, not just the
alsa runtime: i.e. alsa-dev ?

I used the --enable-alsa, but that didn't work.


It won't work, if you don't have the developer libraries installed.

--enable-mmx

Please try ./configure --help for a full list of options that you can pass
to the configuration file. And please read the documentation for what
development files you should have installed on your system:

OK. The problem still remains that other players are able to play
the MPEG produced by MEncoder, and MPlayer cannot, but that is
MPlayer's problem.

Yes, but since you're using SSH anyhow, I'd think it would be more
desireable to just also use it for copying the chunks of the video, and
not requiring the configuration and poor performance of NFS.

> Can one break down an input video into sections and tell mencoder to

Yes, using -edl you could do potentially that but I don't recomend it. 
It isn't really designed for it, so it would take a lot of steps to get
it to do the job without dropping frames, or accidentally splitting in
the worst possible place.  It also may have some bugs, depending on how
you use it (see -hr-edl-seek)...  

As opposed to avisplit, which is brain-dead simple, designed for the
job, and and does it quite well.

It could, but writing a program to do extensive interrogation of the
file to find the best split points, and doing matching processing on the
divx2pass.log file isn't exactly trivial.

Personally, I'd just simultaneously encode a different video on each
machine.  Not difficult to setup a queue to manage that.

Wow you don't even have any of the ones I suggested available. Well
you could try the various ones listed in there (although none seem
like usable ones). Another possibility is to do some digging and find
out how to get the others to work. Unfortunately I am not very
knowledgeable in that area. I would assume you are missing some devel
packages for your OS.

We can only advise you that you need to follow the terms of the GPL,
as MPlayer is under the terms of the GPL (and no other license)
regardless of how many or how few demuxers and codecs you include.

If you're asking about patent claims, you will not get an answer here.
Some developers, myself included, regard all the multimedia patent
claims as bogus due to an abundance of prior art and obviousness as
well as fraudulent misrepresentation of having invented things that
were actually invented over 100 years ago. Whether you want to pay
"random fees" to these nasty people is your own decision and you
should make it my consulting a lawyer and analyzing your risk.

Completely missed that you are using -vc dummy before. You were victim
to the outdated translation, -vc dummy is known to be very crash happy
due to the way it works, and it's not really worth fixing. Which is why
the English output nowadays suggests -vc null instead.

Hello Reimar,

thanks so much for pointing this out! -vc null works fine indeed.

Also when you force an enable option it disables detection for that so
you need to specify where to get the files from.

It is best to just let mplayer auto detect it and let it build

Hi,


in the current man page it says in line 3422 et sqq. (line 4337 et sqq.
in the source):

>  threads=<1-8> (MPEG-1/2 only)
>       number of threads to use for decoding (default: 1)

Obviously, this also works for MPEG-4, thus the documentation should be
updated.

Hi Igor,


for me, using "-lavdopts threads=2" works for most of the h.264-streams
broadcasted on BBC.

This is really a nice feature, because without it, my system would be to
slow to do the real-time-decoding.

Of course, given the amount of multi-core-cpus out there today, and the
increasing number of MPEG-4-HDTV-channels, it would also be very nice if
it worked on every h.264-stream or file there is.

(or a working, improved XvMC implementation / graphics hardware
acceleration for MPEG-4)

But we can still dream..

It's my bug and I hope that the commit to ffmpeg svn have fixed it.
Unfortunately the uploaded sample file is not able to reproduce the
bug so I cannot very the fix on my own.

It happens when there is bitstream error in I-Frame, then ffmpeg
error_resilience tries to see if neighborhood blocks have changed from
previous frame with the intent to use the old blocks (aka when there
is no scene change). As xvmc doesn't allow direct access to the image
dsp.sad() reads some random memory region.
There is already check for xvmc that prevent other methods that access
the image directly, but I have missed this one.

In the sample there is broken I-frame, but probably there are not
enough valid block to try testing them.

Hope it works.

That's great!

It's first time i have heard that "-lavdopts threads=2" works on H264.
do u mean it only worked on some of h.264-stream? what is the different
between the h.264-stream and the others no effect?

I installed the libasound2-dev package, and alsa was detect now.

I rode it. I didn't use the --enable-mmx, because that was automaticaly detected.
Now, after a make, I've this error :
DVD ioctls are unavailable on this system

It's stange, because I use any libdvd on my system (only AC-3). I've not a dvd reader disc, and I don't want read dvds. Now, I'm using these options :

./configure --enable-alsa --enable-gui --disable-tv --target=pentium-mmx --language=fr --disable-dvdread --disable-dvdnav --enable-mmx --realcodecsdir=/usr/lib/real/ --win32codecsdir=/usr/lib/win32 --enable-real --disable-dvdnav --disable-dvdread --disable-dvdread-internal --disable-libdvdcss-internal --enable-mmx

After that, I get again a "Optimisation for: native".

However, when I type :
cat config.mak |grep -i dvd

I get :
DVDREAD = no
DVDREAD_INTERNAL = no
DVDCSS_INTERNAL = no
DVDNAV = no
CONFIG_DVDSUB_DECODER=yes
CONFIG_DVDSUB_ENCODER=yes
CONFIG_DVDSUB_PARSER=yes
CONFIG_MPEG2DVD_MUXER=yes

So, why DVDSUB and MPEG2DVD are active ? Maybe must I desactive them in the config.mak file ?

Message-ID: <709851.39354.qm@web53709.mail.re2.yahoo.com>

Fine. I started lircd and ran irw twice and got exactly the output you described.
OK. I don't have a remote control or a card(and hence I don't need a card driver). I just want to disable lirc support in mplayer.
Most probably the lirc support is built in mplayer, because I installed mplayer from a binary RPM package. Should I recompile mplayer from its sources(instead of installing it from a binary RPM package), disabling the lirc support, is there another way to make mplayer skip this lirc support(for example by passing a command-line option, or an option in the configuration file)?
Appreciating your feedback. Thanks for your support.

Okay, so MPlayer is unable to connect to the lirc daemon.

Normally that would be ~/.lircrc

Why empty?  In order for your remote to actually work with MPlayer, the
configuration file will need to be set up properly.

MPlayer should not (and probably cannot) do this; the lirc daemon is
closing itself due to a configuration error. You need to have lirc
configured properly before you can use it with any program.

Normally this problem is caused by the correct drivers for your
particular card not being present; this is not an MPlayer issue. To
verify that this is an lirc issue, start lircd and then run irw; this
should exit immediately. If you then run irw again it will produce an
error "connect: Connection refused".

Subject: [MPlayer-users] seeking in http-streams with GUI
Message-ID: <200709291411.23285@Mail-Followup-To>

hello,
console mplayer can seek in mp3s (and possible other formats) delivered 
via http-servers. It seems to use the http-Range headers for this 
feature.
Why i can't seek proper with mplayer GUI? 
I can seek with cursor keys (left,right) but not with (up,down, page-up, 
page-down) inside the GUI (console this works all fine), the GUI hangs 
endless. Furthermore the seek-bar is disabled in the GUI.

Seeking in mp3 via http is a unique feature of mplayer. I havn't found 
any other linux-player which can do this. Would be nice to have this 
feature working in the GUI too.

Better try some of the better designed Guis listed on the related
projects page like smplayer etc.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] Problem Playing FLV Files
Message-ID: <20070929125937.1C1723B26C@natsuki.mplayerhq.hu>

Hello,

I'm a new to Mplayer and am having a problem with FLV files.

When I play them I get what I can only describe as a 'Vertical (and Transparent Greeny coloured) Stripe' running down the centre of the screen. It's as though the pictures corrupted in some way.

If I play the same files on Media Player Classic or Windows Media Player with ffdshow and FLVSplitter.ax they work perfectly.

I think I might be missing something in Mplayers setup.

I'm using the latest Windows build downloaded from the official website together with the MPUI front end to get around using all the switches. The codecs I put in the Mplayer folder (in their own codecs folder) which I think is correct way to go and I amended slightly the switch parameters in MPUI to -stereo 0 -sws 2 -af volnorm=2 which I think is all I should need as I'm using a laptop with straight forward stereo sound. OS is XP Pro SP2, but I don't think that's important here.

I like Mplayer as it's using minimal resourcse compared to the other two players mentioned and I'm thinking of making it my default player but obviously I'd like to sort out this FLV glitch first.

Anybody have an idea as to what might be going on please.

Cheers.

Colin

ok, i've tried smplayer. Seeking works nice (all keys), only the seeking 
bar was not working (resets the position to the beginning).

You can find such things in the man page. Run "man mplayer", hit "/" to
search and enter "lirc". Hit "n" (next) until you find the "-nolirc"
option.

"nolirc=yes" in the config should also work.

Subject: [MPlayer-users] cdda playback - control mplayer
Message-ID: <46FE76E1.5080203@gmx.net>

Hi there,

I'm using mplayer for cdda playback because it does digital extraction
which I need because of my audio setup (furthermore digital extraction
is a lot better then the analog way). The machine mplayer is running is
headless and has only ssh connection to the outside, plus a lirc
receiver correctly set up.

Now I have some sort of problem when playing audio discs. I don't seem
to find any way to skip tracks or even the change the current track with
mplayer. The only thing I see I can do is seek a specific amount of time.
Is track control even possible with mplayer or does it only support
skipping a fixed time value?

I ask this because the cdda:// parameter accepts a track value, so I'm
confused I can only change the track on startup.

Thanks,
Tobias Jakobi

Subject: [MPlayer-users] overriding built-in codecs in codecs.conf
Message-ID: <488431.25854.qm@web53712.mail.re2.yahoo.com>

I'm using fedora 7, 64-bit edition. I've recently installed mplayer. When I type mplayer -ac help, I get a list of all supported codecs. One of the lines in the list reads as follows:
rasipr      realaud   working   RealAudio Sipro  [sipr.so.6.0]
Well, I don't have such a library sipr.so.6.0 on my system. and I made sure that real audio files can be played with another library sipr.so which is available on my system.
Hence, I created a ~/.mplayer/codecs.conf and wrote the following lines in it:
audiocodec rasipr
info "RealAudio Sipro"
status working
format 0x72706973
driver realaud
dll "sipr.so"
The file doesn't contain any other codec definitions.
Now, when I issue the command
mplayer -ac help
I get only this one line
rasipr      realaud   working   RealAudio Sipro  [sipr.so.6.0]
It seems that codecs.conf overwrites all the built-in codecs in mplayer with the ones in the file. I wanted only to override the rasipr codec.
Is there a way to override a single codec in the codecs.conf, making mplayer still depend on other its built-in codecs that weren't overridden?
Appreciating your feedback. Thanks for your support.

First, you should be able to get sipr.so.6.0 by downloading the MPlayer
codec packs on the website.

Second, it would be a lot easier for you to just create a link from
sipr.so to sipr.so.6.0 instead of messing with codecs.conf.

No.  But you can get the default (full) list by just copying the
codecs.conf file from mplayer/etc/ and then modifying it as you like.

Regarding getting sipr.so.6.0 from the binary codec packs, I checked the mplayer website and its codec packs. The currently existing one is essential-amd64-20061203.tar.bz2, and it contains sipr.so, not sipr.so.6.0.
I may create a link from sipr.so.6.0 with the name sipr.so, trying to solve this problem.
And last, I don't have a file codecs.conf on my system anywhere. I searched my whole filesystems(find / -name codecs.conf), but found nothing. The file I was talking about at my first post, was created manually.
Anyway, thanks for your support. I'll consider the hint of making a link to the library and get back to you later.

/usr/src/mplayer/etc/codecs.conf

AFAIK since 1.0rc1 "codecs.conf" was moved out from external "/etc" 
folder and is compiled inside of MPlayer binnary.

Fine. I've downloaded the source archive of mplayer, and I've found the file codecs.conf in it. This file is compiled into the source, so that the resulting mplayer binary may have these codecs as built-in. I didn't have this file before because I didn't build mplayer from its sources; I rather installed it from a binary RPM package.
I'll now try to place this file as ~/.mplayer/codecs.conf, modify the raipr codec only, and see how it works.
Thanks for your support.

Please test latest svn, as this is normally the only supported version on this
