Hi, When I execute "gmplayer" the following is displayed and the recorded video is not played. [root@Suriya root]# gmplayer /root/suriya/samp.mpg MPlayer dev-CVS-030729-17:46-3.2 (C) 2000-2003 MPlayer Team CPU: Intel Celeron 2/Pentium III Tualatin (Family: 6, Stepping: 1) Detected cache-line size is 32 bytes CPUflags: MMX: 1 MMX2: 1 3DNow: 0 3DNow2: 0 SSE: 1 SSE2: 0 Compiled for x86 CPU with extensions: MMX MMX2 SSE Reading config file /usr/local/etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf: No such file or directory Reading config file /root/.mplayer/config [cfg] read config file: /root/.mplayer/gui.conf Reading config file /root/.mplayer/gui.conf: No such file or directory vo: X11 running at 800x600 with depth 24 and 32 bpp (":0" => local display) Reading /root/.mplayer/codecs.conf: can't open '/root/.mplayer/codecs.conf': No such file or directory Reading /usr/local/etc/mplayer/codecs.conf: can't open '/usr/local/etc/mplayer/codecs.conf': No such file or directory Using built-in default codecs.conf font: can't open file: /root/.mplayer/font/font.desc font: can't open file: /usr/local/share/mplayer/font/font.desc Using Linux hardware RTC timing (1024Hz).

Skin not found ( default ). I enabled GUI support with "./configure --enable-gui" and downloaded fonts and skins and copied to "/usr/local/share/mplayer" and downloaded codecs and copied to "/usr/local/lib/codecs". Where can i get the "mplayer.conf", "gui.conf", "codecs.conf", "input.conf" and "font.desc" files ? Where I am going wrong ? I can able to playback using "mplayer" but without any sound. I recorded the video stream from "/dev/video0" using FFMPEG.What should I do to hear the sound ? I am working in Red Hat 8.0, Vanilla kernel 2.4.20 with "Pixel View PlayTv Pro" Tv tuner card.
