Thanks!
Btw, with help of [EMAIL PROTECTED] now mplayer works on NetBSD. Unfortunatelly
much better than avifile ;-) I am able to play back Romeo Must Die,
and audio works fine & at full speed. Using avifile/apla sound was played back
at about half of desired speed.
Thus, I think I will no longer track avifile-devel actively. Sorry, but I have no clue
about threads, and mplayer just works. Actually, I am not able to compile it without
problems -- it requires never gas that is currently in NetBSD-1.5.1.
Although binary built on NetBSD-current works on NetBSD 1-5.
Background: NetBSD has very outdated gcc, gas & binutils in-tree. Thanks to Todd
Vierling
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, who has done most of the work on this, NetBSD-current now has optional
USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN variable. When you define it, you have gcc 2.95.3, new gas & other
utils.
It's planned that it becomes default on i386 and sparc64 by today. Mplayer needs this
new gas,
and if Xdpms problem that I haven't tracked down yet didn't occur, it would compile on
NetBSD-1.5.1
with /usr/bin/replaced with the corresponding one stolen from NetBSD-current with
USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN set.
I am going to provide the package that would install mplayer binary, and it would work
on NetBSD-1.5.1
[yes, I know that USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN is more than never gcc & gas, but I don't care
about other tools]
