Re: mplayer one last time :(

2003-09-07 Thread Simon Barner
 I got it running in Linux all I need to is to compile the following:
 
 openquicktime-1.0-src.tar
 win32codecs.tar
 MPlayer-0.91.tar.bz2 
 mplayerplug-in-0.80.tar.gz 
 mini.tar.bz2 
 Blue-1.0.tar
 qt6dlls.tar.bz2 
 
 Those too are the same files that freebsd looks for, but all I get is a white dialog 
 box saying 
 loading movie, when I click on a movie in quicktime.apple.com.

In case you didn't know, mplayerplug-in 0.80 is also in the ports
collection.

I experiences the same problems as you, but I managed to make the moves
at http://www.apple.com/trailers work. Here is what I did:

portupgrade -R mplayerplugin  (edit your /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf to
   exclude some ports (e.g. XFree) and define
   your preferred knobs for mplayer)
   
Do you need a http proxy to access the web? In case you do, there is a
problem since the plugin does not use the browsers plugin setting (yet) but
simply forks an mplayer process.

The good news is, that mplayer respects the http_proxy environment
variable, so the following wrapper script made the quicktime movies
work for me (I suppose this has something to do with streaming since
other movie formats seem to be downloaded by the browser (which knows
your proxy) to a temporary file and then passed to mplayer)

mv /usr/local/bin/mplayer /usr/local/bin/mplayer.bin
create a shell script /usr/local/bin/mplayer

#!/bin/sh
http_proxy=http://your.proxy:1234
export http_proxy
/usr/local/bin/mplayer.bin

 Simon

Sorry for all those spelling errors (in the non-quoted part of my mail).
Here is an error that needs to be corrected:

 #!/bin/sh
 http_proxy=http://your.proxy:1234
 export http_proxy
 /usr/local/bin/mplayer.bin

The wrapper script should look like this:

#!/bin/sh
http_proxy=http://your.proxy:1234
export http_proxy
/usr/local/bin/mplayer.bin $@

I just got mplayer working very well yesterday... I am
really impressed with what is working now!
On 4.8-STABLE  I had to recompile my kernel with:

options CPU_ENABLE_SSE
options CPU_ATHLON_SSE_HACK
Thanks for this info. When you modified the kernel,
you just used the ports that I'm using and it
worked??? nothing fancy at all???
[also]
Win32 warning Accessed uninitialized Critical section (0x66bc4210)!
Yup. I was getting a very similar error message when trying to
play quicktime videos.  I recompiled the kernel with those two
options and now it works perfectly. It plays windows media
files too.
All I can say is great work to those who hooked this all up.

mplayer version 0.90.0.110, and mplayerplug-in version 0.71, updated the ports 2 days 
ago.

Thank you.

 What version are you using?

More info about the problem would be useful. Afaik openquicktime is not a useful
port. What you need is mplayer, the mplayer-plugin, and the win32 codecs.
