<P>If you are a first-time installer: be sure to read everything from here to

|
|

the end of the Installation section, and follow the links you will find. If

2002-08-15 12:42:52 +00:00
|
|
|
|
you have any other questions, return to the Table of Contents and

search for the topic, read the <A HREF="faq.html">FAQ</A>, or try grepping

<P>The main rule of this documentation: if it's not documented, it
|
|
|
|
|
<U>does not exist</U>. If I don't say you encode audio from TV tuner, you
|
|
|
|
|
can't. A healthy quantity of combining ability is welcomed, though.

Good luck. You'll need it :) And for another good advice, let me quote

I said a while ago that there is such a difference between a newbie and
|
2002-06-28 06:07:46 +00:00
|
|
|
|
a dumbass. No matter what you actually know about a system (linux, cars,
|
2002-06-09 16:36:51 +00:00
|
|
|
|
girls :D) you should ALWAYS be able to take a step back and be objective,
|
|
|
|
|
otherwise, you're just dumb IMHO. A girl i live with assumed the vacuum
|
|
|
|
|
cleaner was broken because it didn't suck things up. never thought to change
|
|
|
|
|
the bag, becasue she'd never done it before... now that's just stupid, not a
|
|
|
|
|
case of simply not knowing what to do... Simply not being that familiar with
|
|
|
|
|
your surroundings is no excuse for a) laziness and b) ignorance. So many
|
|
|
|
|
people seem to see the word "error" and then stop... few seem to actually
|
2002-08-15 12:42:52 +00:00
|
|
|
|
read the words on the OTHER side of the colon.

<P><B>MPlayer</B> is a movie player for LINUX (runs on many other Unices, and
|
2002-08-11 18:27:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<B>non-x86</B> CPUs, see the <A HREF="#ports">ports section</A>). It plays most
|
|
|
|
|
MPEG, VOB, AVI, OGG, VIVO, ASF/WMV, QT/MOV, FLI, RM, NuppelVideo, yuv4mpeg,
|
|
|
|
|
FILM, RoQ files, supported by many native, XAnim, RealPlayer, and
|
|
|
|
|
Win32 DLL codecs. You can watch <B>VideoCD</B>, <B>SVCD</B>, <B>DVD</B>,
|
|
|
|
|
<B>3ivx</B>, <B>RealMedia</B>, and <B>DivX</B> movies too (and you don't need
|
|
|
|
|
the avifile
|
2002-08-14 12:24:01 +00:00
|
|
|
|
library at all!). Another big feature of <B>MPlayer</B> is the wide range of
|
2002-08-11 18:27:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
supported output drivers. It works with X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev,
|
|
|
|
|
AAlib, DirectFB, but you can use GGI and SDL (and this way all their drivers)
|
|
|
|
|
and some lowlevel card-specific drivers (for Matrox, 3Dfx and Radeon,
|
|
|
|
|
Mach64, Permedia3) too! Most
|
|
|
|
|
of them supports software or hardware scaling, so you can enjoy movies in
|
|
|
|
|
fullscreen. <B>MPlayer</B> supports displaying through some hardware MPEG
|
|
|
|
|
decoder boards, such as the <B><A HREF="video.html#dvb">DVB</A></B> and
|
2002-08-14 12:24:01 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<B><A HREF="video.html#dxr3">DXR3/Hollywood+</A></B>. And what about the nice big antialiased
|
|
|
|
|
shaded subtitles (<B>10 supported types</B>) with European/ISO 8859-1,2
|
2002-08-11 18:27:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
(Hungarian, English, Czech, etc), Cyrillic, Korean fonts, and the onscreen
|
|
|
|
|
display (OSD)?</P>

<P>The player is rock solid playing damaged MPEG files (useful for some VCDs),
|
2002-08-11 18:27:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
and it plays bad AVI files which are unplayable with the famous
|
|
|
|
|
windows media player. Even AVI files without index chunk are playable, and
|
|
|
|
|
you can temporarily rebuild their indexes with the <CODE>-idx</CODE> option, or
|
|
|
|
|
permanently with <B>MEncoder</B>, thus enabling seeking!
|
|
|
|
|
As you see, stability and quality are the most important things,
|
|
|
|
|
but the speed is also amazing.</P>

I (A'rpi) have tried lots of players under linux (mtv,xmps,dvdview,livid/oms,videolan,
|
|
|
|
|
xine,xanim,avifile,xmmp) but they all have some problem. Mostly with special
|
|
|
|
|
files or with audio/video sync. Most of them is unable to play both MPEG1,
|
|
|
|
|
MPEG2 and AVI (DivX) files. Many players have image quality or speed problems
|
|
|
|
|
too. So I've decided to write/modify one...</P>

Mpeg codec replaced with DVDview by Dirk Farin, it was a great stuff,

2002-01-11 17:56:56 +00:00

<B>NEVER</B> use 2.96 or 3.0.x! They generate faulty code for MPlayer.
|
2002-06-27 16:17:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
If you decide to change gcc from 2.96, then don't decide in favor of 3.0.x
|
|
|
|
|
just because it's newer! Early releases of 3.0.x were even more buggy than
|
|
|
|
|
2.96. So downgrade to 2.95.x (downgrade libstdc++ too, other programs may
|
|
|
|
|
need it) or don't up/downgrade at all (but in this case, be prepared for
|
|
|
|
|
runtime problems). If you vote for 3.x.x, try to use the latest version,
|
|
|
|
|
early releases had various bugs, so be sure you use at least 3.1, it's
|
2002-08-23 10:50:19 +00:00
|
|
|
|
tested and working. For detailed information about gcc 2.96's bugs (that are

If hardware scaling works under Windows, it doesn't mean it will work

under Linux or other operating systems: it depends on the drivers. Most

manufacturers neither make Linux drivers nor release specifications

<P>As <B>MPlayer</B> doesn't have a skin included, you have to download them if
|
|
|
|
|
you want to use the GUI. See the
|
|
|
|
|
<A HREF="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/dload.html">download page</A>.
|
|
|
|
|
They should be extracted to the usual system-wide directory
|
|
|
|
|
(<CODE>$PREFIX/share/mplayer/Skin</CODE>), or to
|
|
|
|
|
<CODE>$HOME/.mplayer/Skin</CODE>. <B>MPlayer</B> by default looks in these
|
|
|
|
|
directories for a directory named <I>default</I>, but you can use the
|
|
|
|
|
<CODE>-skin newskin</CODE> option, or the <CODE>skin=newskin</CODE> config
|
|
|
|
|
file directive to use the skin in <CODE>*/Skin/newskin</CODE> directory.</P>

<id></CODE> options (optionally with pathname, of course). The

<P>If you experience a growing delay between the movie and the subtitles when

using a MicroDVD subtitle file, most likely the frame rate of the movie and
|
|
|
|
|
the subtitle file are different.<BR> Please note that the MicroDVD subtitle
|
|
|
|
|
format uses absolute frame numbers for its timing, and therefore the
|
|
|
|
|
<CODE>-subfps</CODE> option cannot be used with this format. As
|
|
|
|
|
<B>MPlayer</B> has no way to guess the frame rate of the subtitle file, you
|
|
|
|
|
have to manually convert the frame rate. There is a little perl script in the
|
|
|
|
|
<CODE>contrib</CODE> directory of the MPlayer FTP site to do this conversion
|
|
|
|
|
for you.</P>

<P><B>MPlayer</B> introduces a new subtitle format called <B>MPsub</B>. It was

designed by me (Gabucino). Basically its main feature is being

<I>dynamically</I> time-based (although it has frame-based mode too). Example

<P>So you see, the main goal was to <B>make subtitle

editing/timing/joining/cutting easy</B>. And, if you - say - get an SSA
|
|
|
|
|
subtitle but it's badly timed/delayed to your version of the movie, you
|
|
|
|
|
simply do a <CODE>mplayer dummy.avi -sub source.ssa -dumpmpsub</CODE>.
|
|
|
|
|
A <CODE>dump.mpsub</CODE> file will be created in the current directory,
|
|
|
|
|
which will contain the source subtitle's text, but in <B>MPsub</B> format.
|
|
|
|
|
Then you can freely add/subtract seconds to/from the subtitle.</P>

<P>You need an <B>MPlayer</B> font package to be able to use OSD/SUB feature.

<UL>
|
|
|
|
|
<LI>download ready-to-use font packages from <B>MPlayer</B> site.
|
|
|
|
|
Note: currently available fonts are limited for iso 8859-1/2 support,
|
|
|
|
|
but there are some other (including Korean, Russian, 8859-8 etc) fonts
|
|
|
|
|
at contrib/font section of FTP, made by users.<BR>
|
|
|
|
|
<BR>
|
|
|
|
|
Font should have appropriate font.desc file which maps unicode font
|
|
|
|
|
positions to the actual code page of the subtitles text. Other solution is
|
|
|
|
|
to have subtitles encoded in utf8 encoding and use <CODE>-utf8</CODE>
|
|
|
|
|
option or just name the subtitles file <video_name>.utf and have it
|
|
|
|
|
in the same dir as the video file. Recoding from different codepages to
|
|
|
|
|
utf8 could be done by using konwert (Debian) or iconv (Red Hat)
|
|
|
|
|
programs.<BR>

<LI><B>To use the old method</B>, you don't have to do anything. It uses
|
|
|
|
|
<CODE>usleep()</CODE> to tune A/V sync, with +/- 10ms accuracy. However
|
|
|
|
|
sometimes the sync has to be tuned even finer.</LI>
|
|
|
|
|
<LI><B>The new timer</B> code uses PC's RTC (Real Time Clock) for this task,
|
|
|
|
|
because it has precise 1ms timers. It is automagically enabled when
|
|
|
|
|
available, but requires root privileges, a <I>setuid root</I>
|
|
|
|
|
<B>MPlayer</B> binary or a properly set up kernel.
|
|
|
|
|
<BR>
|
|
|
|

If you are running kernel 2.4.19pre8 or later you can adjust the maximum
|
|
|
|
|
RTC frequency for normal users through the <CODE>/proc</CODE> filesystem.
|
|
|
|
|
Use this command to enable RTC for normal users:

If you do not have such a new kernel, you can also change one line in
|
|
|

<CODE>drivers/char/rtc.c</CODE> and recompile your kernel. Find the

You can see the new timer's efficiency in the status line.

<BR>
|
|
|
|
|
The power management functions of some notebook BIOSes with speedstep CPUs
|
|
|
|
|
interact badly with RTC. Audio and video may get out of sync. Plugging the
|
|
|
|
|
external power connector in before you power up your notebook seems to help.
|
|
|
|
|
You can always turn off RTC support with the <CODE>-nortc</CODE> switch.
|
|
|
|
|
In some hardware combinations (confirmed during usage of non-DMA DVD
|
|
|
|
|
drive on an ALi1541 board) usage of the RTC timer causes skippy playback.
|
|
|
|
|
It's recommended to use the third method in these cases.</LI>
|
|
|
|
|
<LI><B>The third timer code</B> is turned on with the <CODE>-softsleep</CODE>
|
|
|
|
|
option. It has the efficiency of the RTC, but it doesn't use RTC. On the other
|
|
|

|
hand, it requires more CPU.</LI>

<B>Hint</B><BR>

|
|

Are the colors messed up? Then your tuner cannot display
|
2002-07-22 11:25:01 +00:00
|
|
|
|
in YV12 colorspace. Try I420 (<CODE>-vc rawi420</CODE>) or YUY2, UYVY, RGB32
|
|
|
|
|
(<CODE>-vo sdl</CODE>) colorspaces.
|
2002-08-27 18:06:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
You can specify these with the <CODE>outfmt=YV12</CODE> option, see below.

2002-01-15 17:04:01 +00:00

<P>Linux Infrared Remote Control - use an easy to build home-brewn IR-receiver,
|
2002-08-14 12:24:01 +00:00
|
|
|
|
an (almost) arbitrary remote control and control your Linux box with it!
|
2002-08-11 18:27:38 +00:00

More about it at <A HREF="http://www.lirc.org">www.lirc.org</A>.</P>

<P>If you have installed the lirc-package, configure will autodetect it. If
|
|
|
|
|
everything went fine, <B>MPlayer</B> will print a message like "Setting up
|
|
|
|
|
lirc support..." on startup. If an error occurs it will tell you. If it
|
|
|
|
|
doesn't tell you anything about LIRC there's no support compiled in. That's
|
|
|
|
|
it :-)</P>

|

You can use any mplayer commands and even pass more than one command by
|
|
|
|
|
separating them with \n. Don't forget to enable the repeat flag in .lircrc
|
|
|
|
|
when it make sense (seek, volume, etc). Here's an excerpt from my
|
|

|

<P>AVI file playback works best on Solaris x86, because you have the
|
2002-08-10 20:26:43 +00:00
|
|
|
|
option to use the win32 codecs on the x86 platform, or can use
|
|
|
|
|
MMX/MMX2/3DNow/etc instructions for MP3/DivX/DVD/whatever. On Colaris SPARC,
|
|
|
|
|
you'll find quite a few AVI files with non working video and/or audio
|
|
|
|
|
playback, because the video/audio codecs using the Win32 DLLs are not
|
|
|
|
|
available. However, <B>DivX/OpenDivX</B> movies should work, when using
|
|
|
|
|
libavcodec.</P>

<P>On Solaris with an UltraSPARC CPU, you can get some extra speed by

using the CPU's VIS instructions for certain time consuming operations.

2001-11-11 22:30:31 +00:00

VIS acceleration can be used in MPlayer by calling functions in Sun's

<P>Works. You'll need to download SDL for QNX, and install it. Then run

|
|

<B>MPlayer</B> with <CODE>-vo sdl:photon</CODE> and <CODE>-ao sdl:nto</CODE>

|
|
|
|
|
|

<P>The <CODE>-vo x11</CODE> output will be even slower than on Linux, since

QNX has only X <I>emulation</I> which is VERY slow. Use SDL.</P>

<P>Due to limitations in different versions of gas (relocation vs mmx), you'll

need to compile in two steps: First make sure that the non-native as is first

in PATH and do a '<CODE>gmake -k</CODE>', then make sure that the native

ALSA 0.9 OSS emulation with -ao oss, also try -ao sdl, sometimes it helps.

If your file plays fine with -nosound, then you can be sure it's sound card
