I wanted to play an mpg just now and mplayer starts but gives me no more than a blue box. I tried re-emerging mplayer without help. I renamed the ~/.mplayer directory and restarting mplayer Still no good. I diff'ed my current mplayer.conf to an old backup from when it was working.... no changes! The only thing I can see different is the motherboard and processor. I've replaced the Leadtek K7NCR18D-pro with ab Asus A7N8X. (both boards are nforce2 and I changed from an XP 2100 to a 2400) Sound doesn't work yet on the new board, but mplayer has worked since I replaced boards. Can someone suggest what to do as the next logical step? Noatun, xoine and kaboodle don't work either.
opening the xine-ui show the below output.
