How to get win32 quicktime audio/video codec plugins support work?
|
|
|
|
|
==================================================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Get the latest wine source. Some leech urls:
|
|
|
|
|
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20021031.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.infomagic.com/pub/mirrors/linux/sunsite/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20021031.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/unix/linux/mirrors/sunsite.unc.edu/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20021031.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|
ftp://orcus.progsoc.uts.edu.au/pub/Wine/development/Wine-20021031.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|
Compile and install it:
|
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Get mplayer CVS (RTFM...), and compile this way:
|
2002-11-22 16:26:56 +00:00
|
|
|
./configure --disable-win32 --enable-qtx-codecs
|
|
|
|
|
(the --disable-win32 is VERY important!!!)
|
2002-11-13 18:07:12 +00:00
|
|
|
make mplayer.exe.so
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Get the quicktime DLLs & wine config pack:
|
|
|
|
|
[ftp|http]://mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/qt-dotwine.tar.bz2
|
|
|
|
|
If you already have ~/.wine, backup it:
|
|
|
|
|
mv ~/.wine ~/.wine.orig
|
|
|
|
|
Extract the tarball in your home dir:
|
|
|
|
|
cd
|
|
|
|
|
tar -xjf qt-dotwine.tar.bz2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Launch mplayer with wine:
|
|
|
|
|
wine z:/path/to/mplayer/main/mplayer.exe.so -- file.mov [options]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also create a wrapper script to emulate 'old' mplayer behaviour:
|
|
|
|
|
Create a file called 'mplayer' with content:
|
|
|
|
|
wine z:/path/to/mplayer/main/mplayer.exe.so -- $*
|
|
|
|
|
then: chmod +x mplayer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTES:
|
|
|
|
|
Note 1: when first time starting wine, it will create a FONT database, it
|
|
|
|
|
may take a while... don't worry, it won't be rebuild next time!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note 2: wine/quicktime DLLs fork several processes/threads, they
|
|
|
|
|
somehow don't die at exit and keep eating your memory in the background,
|
|
|
|
|
so it's recommended to 'killall wine' after running mplayer this way...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note 3: yes we all know this is messy hack, and we're working on a
|
|
|
|
|
cleaner solution, using the minimalist loader included in mplayer
|
|
|
|
|
instead of all the bloat coming with libwine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note 4: due to --disable-win32, you cannot use vfw/acm/dshow and quicktime
|
|
|
|
|
DLLs at the same time.
