I didn't create the plugin - I have been doing maintenance on it. I would advise testing BBCiPLayer as it is now out of beta. http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=451721&postcount=408 AlienBBC uses web pages to create menus and get program info which is a high maintenance activity. BBCiP

You should provide detail on the underlying system - processor, memory, graphics etc. and also what option were used to build mplayer. If you areusing 7.3 or higher - you should try the BBCiPlayer 0.9 beta ( http://triodeplugins.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/testrepo.xml ) . It supports non UK users

Hum. I was very close to give up and try migrating the mplayer.sh script to vlc. Lucky me I found that I needed to --disable-gl to get rid of a segfault in the configure stage for PNG, JPG, Gif (don't ask me why, I never installed any graphical layer on this machine.) Then I had in turn to --disa

Looks like a bad build - Possibly not linking into some shared libraries. Check that you are using tools that are acceptable to mplayer. Look at any warning at the link stage. Try rebuilding choosing to use static libraries ( a configure option). -- bpa -

mplayer is not demanding of a kernel - mplayer really only reads bytes, converts them mathemtically and then write out bytes. It uses some time functions as well. If the input is a file and the output is a file - then it will just use file i/o and possibly a single subprocess. 1. Does mplayer f

Yes the builds were made on the target, I tried compiling this: mplayer 1:1.0.rc2svn20080706-0.1 (http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid/main) The processor is a quite regular Intel Core Solo (T1200), but the kernel is custom-built: 2.6.26-cata-4-softdog #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Sep 29 01:22:56 CEST 2008

mplayer will run on simple NAS which have no X11 and no audio. A "standard" mplayer is built expecting standard PC hardware such as video and audio probably not just a speaker. Your system may not match the options chosen for the standard build. It is not clear whether you have built mplayer on

Sorry to pollute this forum with an OS-related question, but I wanted to give AlienBBC a go, and I simply can't get MPLAYER to run on my debian 2.6.26 machine. It just says Segmentation Fault and it's gone. I used packages (straight debian and marillat's), compiled with debian patches, and also wi
