Let's ask!
~~~~~~~~~~
Q: SDL output doesn't work or compile. Problem is ....
A: It works only with SDL v1.1.7 (and maybe newer)
A: It is tested with SDL v1.1.8 (probably runs on 1.1.7 too).
It does NOT work with 1.1.6, 1.1.5 1.1.4 1.1.3 1.0.4 etc, don't ask.
Q: I am still having trouble compiling with SDL support. gcc says something
@ -33,11 +33,10 @@ Q: I have Pentium III but ./configure doesn't detect SSE
A: Only kernel versions 2.4.x supports SSE (or try latest 2.2.19 or newer)
Q: fullscreen option (-fs) and/or -xy doesn't work with x11 driver (-vo x11)
A: x11 driver doesn't support scaling, and it can't change screen resolution.
Yes, I know that it should be but I have no time to write software
scaling routines and experiencing with XVidMode extension...
You can do it yourself, just press ALT,CTRL,- or ALT,CTRL,+ simultaneously,
see X-server docs for details.
A: x11 driver doesn't support scaling, but XF86VidMode support is now
used: you must specify the -vm and the -fs switch, and you're done.
Make sure you have the right Modelines in your XF86Config file, and
try if the DGA driver works for you. It's much faster.
Q: audio goes out of sync playing .avi file
A: try with -bps or -nobps option
@ -99,12 +98,15 @@ Q: I've got 'MPlayer interrupted by signal 11' in module audio_setup or
decode_audio.
A: It's a damaged file with bad mp3 audio stream. Try it with -afm 4
Q: It aborts with signal 11 playing a file with IMA-ADPCM audio.
A: This codec isn't yet supported!
Q: Are there rpm/deb/... packages of MPlayer?
A: Not yet. However, you can make a .deb package for yourself, check
DOCS/DEBIAN
A: You can make a .deb package for yourself, check DOCS/DEBIAN .
There are .rpm packages at
ftp://ftp.pld.org.pl/test/i{3,5,6}86/
and/or
ftp://ftp.pld.org.pl/PLD-1.0/i{3,5,6}86/PLD/RPMS/
NOTE: i{3,5,6} stand for i386, i586, i686 . If you have i686 CPU, use
i686, etc.
NOTE: MANUAL COMPILATION _ALWAYS_ GIVES BETTER PERFORMANCE AND SPEED !
Q: Are there any mailing lists on MPlayer?
A: Yes! See README on how to subscribe them!

untested and/or unfinished.
6. If you have speed problems (too slow playing), then please first check that:
- you don't use OpenGL driver while have software-only opengl (DRI disabled,
or not yet installed, conflicting libs installed, or your hardware not
supported etc...)
- you don't use OpenGL driver while have software-only opengl (Utah-GLX
disabled, or not yet installed, conflicting libs installed, or your
hardware not supported etc...)
- you have set up MTRR registers properly (many new cards are really
slow without setting up MTRR registers. it's NOT done by X 3.3.x! Also,
there are older K6-2's, which lack MTRR support /stepping=0/).
Check DOCS/MTRR !
- you have a fast machine (don't report that your 386 can't play DivX)
- try with Null output (-vo null) and check CPU usage (first % value)
@ -241,12 +243,10 @@ Troubleshooting:
- to play AVI files with VBR MP3 audio use the -mc 0 option!
- no sound at all: check that you have working OSS driver (/dev/dsp),
and it isn't used by another program (for example esd, xmms etc.)
- use OSS. If the problem persists, use ALSA ;)
8. unsupported codecs (AVI files):
We may add support for your movie, but we need the following things:
- the codec DLL file: find it in your WINDOWS directory. In the SYSTEM.INI
there will be a listing of the installed codecs (vids.<codecname>=DLLfile)
- a sample file encoded with that codec.
Check DOCS/CODECS
