Hi folks. I'm using gmplayer as a viewer for an encoding pipeline faciliating mencoder. As I'm always adding new features to the pipeline, I have to recompile mplayer once in a while. Everything has been running plain smooth for the last two years and I had been able to solve all problems myself until now. But now I'm stuck, I can't get gmplayer to run anymore! mplayer works fine. Problems started two weeks ago, after recompiling mplayer with latest svn version the skin file wouldn't load due to some PNG format error (alpha channels, seemed to be an well-known older problem). Now this bug seems to be fixed but gmplayer just crashes on startup. I already tried to to compile and run on different machines - same crash. I also tried different skins ("Blue", "Blue small", "Canary") - same crash. I have changed the video mode by editing ~/.mplayer/gui.conf, from x11 to xv - same crash. I'm at a loss, can you help out? Can you reproduce the bug or am I doing something terribly wrong??? Thanks in advance! ========================= Crash ========================= MPlayer SVN-r34646-4.5.2 (C) 2000-2012 MPlayer Team MPlayer interrupted by signal 11 in module: unknown - MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM. Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash. - MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen. It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug. ========================= Traceback ========================= GNU gdb (Ubuntu/Linaro 7.2-1ubuntu11) 7.2 Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
