Hi Compn! OK, this is a general complaint about your style of writing bug reports... They are generally quite useful, BUT ... It would help if you could be just a LITTLe bit more verbose. Your English is so terse it borders on the unintelligible, almost as if you got charged by the word. Don't forget that most people on these lists are not native speakers and have some trouble understanding English in the first place. You have to try to make it easy on the others, not place the burden of filling in context on them. If in doubt, always err on the side of verbosity. BTW, have you read bugreports.html? ;-) I'll run through this now and make some suggestions... On Wed, Jun 02, 2004 at 12:08:49AM -0400, compn wrote:

Do you mean "A user brought up attention to a file with indeo audio codec that did not work"?
and codecs.conf entry already found and work fine, please add to codecs.conf :)
Do you mean "and made a codecs.conf entry to make it work, please add that entry to codecs.conf."?
ftp://ftp.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/samples/A-codecs/Indeo%20Audio/ ftp://ftp.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/samples/A-codecs/Indeo%20Audio/codecs.conf ftp://ftp.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/samples/A-codecs/Indeo%20Audio/iac25_32.ax
Well, I know that we have a samples dir on mphq, but why the heck are you mentioning these URLs? If there is a particular reason for doing so, please state it..
and a sample file i uploaded ftp://ftp.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incoming/Intel%20Indeo%20Audio%20Codec/sample.avi
Just a note, sample.avi is not an overly good name, it would be nice if it could be a tad more descriptive. I have several samples.avi.
(dont use my codecs.conf as i put dshow instead of correct acm for driver)
??? I'm drawing a complete blank here. I don't think I have an account on your machine, so why would I be using your codecs.conf file? ... OK, I have been misreading some things on purpose to make an example, but I hope you get the idea. Please (try to) take this in the good spirit it was written as a constructive suggestion.
