Re: [Freevo-users] Problem with MPlayer failing to play media

I don't know morphix at all, but if it's debian based (i.e. it uses apt-get) you should first check your achitecture (uname -m) and then apt-get the correct package (e.g. apt-get mplayer-586). mplayer -v should tell you what version you have installed. If you have the newest, apt-get will tell you when you try to install...

Ah,

 

I’m not sure! I think that my morphix distro might have had it installed! Is there a way I can change which version is installed?

I don’t have the development environment on the machine hence the fact I can not compile these programs

 

Regards,

Neil

Hi Neil

Actually mplayer is a virtual package provided by :

 

  mplayer-nogui 1:1.0-pre6-0.1
  mplayer-k6 1:1.0-pre6-0.2
  mplayer-586 1:1.0-pre6-0.2
  mplayer-386 1:1.0-pre6-0.2

What did you installed ?

Hi,

 

I’m sorry that I don’t have specifics with this currently however,

 

I have installed Freevo on Morphix (debian) I used the apt-get to install freevo. The problem is that mplayer will not play!  It also does not give an error message. This is the same for both MP3 and AVI.

Mplayer works fine from the command line. I have also looked at what is passed to it from freevo. This looks ok too.

Freevo is the latest version and MPlayer is 1.0 pre 6.

 

I know this is not much information! What information would be useful to help me resolve this?

 

I have been using freevo for a year now. This is the first time I have tried to run it from Debian!

 

 

Many thanks

 

Neil
