Just to complete this thread. With the latest Packman packaged MPlayer version, I can now hear .wma play properly on a 32-bit openSUSE-11.2 (instead of the static that I obtained before).
More specifically, for .wma I note: * MPlayer-1.0rc2_r30099-1.pm.1.1.i586 plays .wma (and .wmv audio) properly * MPlayer-1.0rc2_r29796-2.pm.3.3.i586 gives only static for .wma (and static for .wmv audio). Thanks for the fix. I just tested vlc, xine, and mplayer for both .wma and .wmv on both 32-bit and 64-bit openSUSE-11.2 PCs, and they all play well. Thank you very much for a great packaging job.
