[Solved] Can't get video to work with mplayer-coreavc-svn

Hi!

I've just reformatted my system and I'm trying to get everything up and running. A few problems are popping up. tongue

One thing I'm struggling with is getting .mkv files to play using mplayer. I've installed the mplayer-coreavc-svn package
in AUR, but something is wrong.

When I try to start a movie I get the following:

bash-3.2$ mplayer -vc coreserve 10000\ BC.mkv

As you can see I'm having some problems with the sound too, but that seems to be connected to me trying to get softvol up and running.
Why won't the video play? What codecs am I missing? I've installed mplayer-codecs, codecs, mplayer-w32codecs from AUR, ffmpeg, x264
and xvidcore.

Re: [Solved] Can't get video to work with mplayer-coreavc-svn

Hmm... I downloaded the newest version of the dshowserver, but still no video. The process of starting the playback was much
faster, but no video. sad

This seems to be the problem:

Re: [Solved] Can't get video to work with mplayer-coreavc-svn

Bump...

Anyone have any suggestion?


Edit: I'll try to install the normal version of mplayer and then apply the patch manually. Hopefully this will work cause I'm having no
luck with mplayer-coreavc-svn... hmm

Re: [Solved] Can't get video to work with mplayer-coreavc-svn

Ah, seems this is a problem that has been affecting alot of people and there seems to be a sollution http://code.google.com/p/coreavc-for-li … tail?id=62

My problem is that I'm not that linux handy yet that I'm able to compile the right version of dshowserver into mplayer. Has anyone here done it? Can you please post
the PKGBUILD if you have? smile

Or maybe tell me how I can apply the new version of dshowserver into the PKGBUILD of mplayer-coreavc-svn?

Re: [Solved] Can't get video to work with mplayer-coreavc-svn

Thanks man! I'll try it out first thing tomorrow. smile

Btw, should I change --confdir=/etc/mplayer to --confdir=/home/per/.mplayer when I use ~/.mplayer as the directory for
my mplayer config file?

Re: [Solved] Can't get video to work with mplayer-coreavc-svn

Hmm... There seems to be a problem with this PKGBUILD. When running makepkg I get:

Checked out revision 27973.
Unknown parameter: --disable-smb--disable-liblzo
sed: can't read config.mak: No such file or directory

which later leads to:

install: cannot stat `loader/registercodec': No such file or directory
patching file libmpcodecs/vd.c
patching file Makefile
patching file libmpcodecs/vd_dshowserver.c
Makefile:22: config.mak: No such file or directory
make: *** osdep/: Is a directory.  Stop.
==> ERROR: Build Failed.

How can I fix this?

Looks like a typo to me.  Is there a file called config.mk ?

Re: [Solved] Can't get video to work with mplayer-coreavc-svn

I think it's supposed to be config.mak.

Seems I'll have to try the 1.7 version of coreavc. hopefully it will work.

No, if you have ~/.mplayer/ it will check first then /etc/mplayer

I updated the PKGBUILD it should work now

Definately or even better try the latest version 1.8.5

Re: [Solved] Can't get video to work with mplayer-coreavc-svn

The problem comes with the 1.8.5 version http://blog.mymediasystem.net/?p=148. sad
Seems there's a bug that prevents video from being shown. I'm gonna try the 1.8.0 version with the mplayer-coreavc-svn in the Aur and see if
it works. Too bad I can't get your PKGBUILD to work. Don't know what is causing the problem...[


Edit: Ok, got it working with the AUR PKGBUILD and 1.8.0 version!! Finally! Thanks for the help guys. big_smile

Had to recompile mplayer after the update and now your PKGBUILD worked like a charm.

Thanks qubit! big_smile

Are you sure that have tried release 4? Do you have arch i686 or 64 bit?
I've upload the package here

OFF TOPIC: Could you also answer me why theres no mplayer-svn-ffmpeg on aur? I'm just curious since it looks like ffmpeg today is multi-threaded+x264 support smile

If I can use open source instead of closed binaries, well that's the best way imo smile
