RE: [Freevo-users] Problem with MPlayer failing to play media
Hi, Thanks for that! Someone suggested XINE, which I was using for DVD playing! It appeared to work with no configuration! I'm not sure if this will give me problems in the future! I hope not!

Re: [Freevo-users] Problem with MPlayer failing to play media
I'm confused to why everyone is saying you need gmplayer? gmplayer is a
gtk front end to mplayer that is not needed by freevo. mplayer is all
that is needed. If it works from command line, then it should work with
freevo.
Check that it is being correctly detected by running freevo setup. This
should then write a file to /etc/freevo/freevo.conf with the path of
mplayer in it among other applications freevo uses.
I found when mplayer did not work for me it was because I had not set up
my sound correctly. What sound system aer you using? oss or alsa? Your
probably using alsa and the 1x series. Make sure that
MPLAYER_AO_DEV
in your /etc/freevo/local_conf.py section is correct. You can see what
options are available to your own mplayer installation by running
"mplayer -ao help" on the command line. Sometimes for alsa it wants alsa
or alsa1x, you'll have to find out for yourself.
Hope this helps somewhat,
Nick

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...

[Freevo-users] Problem with MPlayer failing to play
media
Hi,
Im sorry that I dont 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

RE: [Freevo-users] Problem with MPlayer failing to play media
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 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Satana Sent: 14 March 2005 14:57 To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] Problem with MPlayer failing to play media 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 ? - Original Message - From: Neil To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Monday, March 14, 2005 10:36 AM Subject: [Freevo-users] Problem with MPlayer failing to play media 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.

RE: [Freevo-users] Problem with MPlayer failing to play media
Hi, I have googled about a bit to find out about gmplayer! I can not find much. I did not install mplayer from source. I think that the freevo debian install did that. Is there anyway to add gmplayer to my current installation?

It sounds like mplayer works but gmplayer doesn't. Maybe you had gtk installed when compiled, but for some reason you have upgrades/uninstalled some important libraries and gmplayer doesn't work anymore. It won't popup a window complaining about this. To get some more info, just launch anything from console. You will see more error messages.
