Patch for mp3 seek to end of file bug
by Erik Simonsen 14 Nov '02

14 Nov '02

This is a patch for libmpdemux/demux_audio.c. It fixes the problem where skipping an mp3 to the end of a song didn't work. Usually, when you skip an mp3 with 45 seconds remaining forward 60 seconds, mplayer would refuse to skip, this patch just makes the song end. I've tried it out and I don't think it screws anything up. I think this is the preferable behavior, so I'd really like to see it make it into the source. I commented out the old lines to preserve them just in case. Thanks guys.

xmga bug?
by Per Wigren 14 Nov '02

14 Nov '02

I've RTFM but couldn't find an answer to this. I just got a Matrox G450 today and wanted to use it to the max, so I want to have xmga as my default vo. It works great on MOST stuff. But some videos have strange flickering lines at the right of the video window.. I can reproduce the bug on ALL movies by scaling down the window to about 320x200 and smaller... I'm using 0.90pre10.. // Wigren

RE: [MPlayer-users] Vobsub split Question
by Green, Shaun 14 Nov '02

14 Nov '02

Never worked for me when I tried it. You have to copy the whole .idx and .sub files for the next section(s) and then use -subdelay param with mplayer. It's better to just put this in separate shell script file for each movie file (see attached). So this can be ~5 meg hit per CD.

Codec request
by Andrew Goodney 14 Nov '02

14 Nov '02

I think it would be a good idea if mplayer supported some MJPEG-2000 based codec's. The results from MJPEG-2000 can be stunning at low bit rates. I have prepared two tar files and uploaded them to the incoming directory. The first is from Image Power. www.imagepower.com It uses the fourcc ipj2 and is a vfw codec only ftp://ftp.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incomming/imagepower_mjpeg2000.tgz The second is from Morgan Multimedia www.morgan-multimedia.com It uses the fourcc mj2c and is a vfw and directshow filter. ftp://ftp.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incomming/morgan_mjpeg2000.tgz The three DirectShow filters have the info as following: {3902B4C1-1C41-423E-BEE6-66D72678C2CB};Morgan MJ2 Dest Morgan Multimedia;C:\Program Files\Morgan\M3JPEG2K\MJ2Dest.ax {3902B4C0-1C41-423E-BEE6-66D72678C2CB};Morgan MJ2 Source Morgan Multimedia;C:\Program Files\Morgan\M3JPEG2K\MJ2Source.ax {3902B4C2-1C41-423E-BEE6-66D72678C2CB};Morgan MJPEG2000 VFW Decompressor Morgan Multimedia;C:\Program Files\Morgan\M3JPEG2K\M3JP2KdecVFW.ax I hope that support for these codecs can be added. I do not think people would be disappointed with the results. The Morgan codec at 1Mbps is many times better than any mpeg-4 derivative.
