does your CPU have altivec? (I guess not) mplayer is compiled with altivec support, and it crashes on non-altivec powerpc CPUs. This is a controversial decision we made some time ago. Compiling w/o altivec would adversly affect people that have altivec. My hope was that most CPUs nowdays would have altivec, but it seems there are exceptions (this is the 3rd bug report). Unfortunately AFAIK there is no run-time CPU detection currently for altivec . I am still hoping to find a better solution. a. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIL+RU9B/tjjP8QKQRAm9IAKCkZ7jVBsl5VETD3GkpWWlE+Jbg5wCfaOyB 5hpl7PKcBjpivvyPq4mbdWA= =HGvs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
