But if you plane to improve documentation then - what you think about doxygen? http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen It can to document sources and simple files. It has several outputs like PDF, HTML LATEX, RTF and more other useful features. For this software you could make an universal startup file and build links to already translated files. Best regards!

MPlayers definition
by Felix Buenemann 22 Jul '01

22 Jul '01

Hello mplayer-dev-eng, we always call MPlayer the movie player for linux, but as we run on more then linux already shouldn't we change that to something more reasonable? -- Best regards, Felix mailto:atmosfear@users.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ Mplayer-dev-eng mailing list Mplayer-dev-eng(a)lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mplayer-dev-eng

System wide configuratio
by Felix Bünemann 22 Jul '01

22 Jul '01

Hello mplayer-dev-eng, I've looked at the system wide configuration patch to mplayer and I think it's quite messy cause it adds an extra if check after every get_path, but it's much cleaner to instead extend get_path function to return reguested file in system wide configdir if it's not found in homedir. I'm currently reworking get_path and will include it into mplayer.c if it's finished. -- Best regards, Felix mailto:atmosfear@users.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ Mplayer-dev-eng mailing list Mplayer-dev-eng(a)lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mplayer-dev-eng

demuxer changes
by Arpi 21 Jul '01

21 Jul '01

Hi, As you maybe noticed, I'm working on demuxer code cleanup and separation. Today I made a lot's of changes, moved fileformat detection and header parser stuff out from mplayer.c. I ha dto change things about demuxer and stream header structs... and it can be broken! :( So, please test it, run it over all your files on your HDD! If you find a file not playing (unkwnon file format or segfault) with this version, but plays with yesterday one, please tell me. It's very important to test these changes before I continue this hacking...

Re: [Mplayer-users] Divx4Linux confusion

Do you do call decore(...,DEC_OPT_RELEASE,...) at the end of play? Or is this a TODO item? I'm somehow searching for a difference in mplayer and my test program, because calling DEC_OPT_RELEASE gives a segfault here, if I use DEC_OPT_INIT without a previous decore(...,MEM_REQ,...) before, freeing memory that has not been malloced. gruel _______________________________________________ Mplayer-dev-eng mailing list Mplayer-dev-eng(a)lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mplayer-dev-eng

SLOW HARDWARE
by Nick Kurshev 21 Jul '01

21 Jul '01

Hello, Arpi! A few words about playing back on slow hardware: 1. Is it possible to do in mplayer option like -aframedrop (drop audio frames instead of video)? What I mean: when I watch movie on slow hardware without enabled framedrop then sound outdistances video stream. This effect become since mplayer can't decode all audio frames (and skip part of them). We have that when we watch N video frame then audio is decoded from N+100 frame. In this connexion - is it possible that mplayer will drop audio frames instead of video (since with -nosound option it play in real-time)? 2. Superficial analysis shows me that mplayer too frequently calls read() function to read next bit from file. There was report that on FreeBSD mplayer works faster than on Linux. In this connexion maybe it would be better to add mmap technology to read from memory, instead file directly. In this case system will read from file only 4K blocks that is much faster of calling read() function for each byte even from buffer. (You will be able to read from memory an each byte even in codecs). Am I wrong? I can apply this feature (I did such changes but for 0.17-pre version but left them). But I'm not sure about stream64 patch - when and who will apply it. 3. Many from my friends have found that ffmpeg codec is better of win32-divx but they spend a lot of time to activate them. You promise to release a two (or more) codecs.conf - is it possible to do now? Best regards!

Porting to IRIX/Solaris
by Christoph Lampert 20 Jul '01

20 Jul '01

Hi, I missed ffmpeg discussion because I've been on vacations until a few days ago, so please don't shout at me (and don't RTFM me, either!): A while ago, Gernot planned to port Mplayer (or mpg12play) to IRIX. Now with libavcodec for DivX support this would be even more interesting than before. A port to these plattforms would be without ANY "competitors". I also remember something about a running StrongARM port... Can anybody update me to current status? gruel -- Dipl. math.

Convert DOCS to html?
by Felix Bünemann 20 Jul '01

20 Jul '01

Hello, What do you think about converting all DOCS (maybe not INSTALL) to HTML, this would allow a much better doc structure and make it easy to put docs to homepage. Currently DOCS with all those small texfiles is quite a mess. -- Best regards, Felix mailto:atmosfear@users.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ Mplayer-dev-eng mailing list Mplayer-dev-eng(a)lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mplayer-dev-eng
