I am trying to use mplayer in my text-based console/terminal without the X window system. When I play a video, the sound is fine but the video output just shows a few text characters moving and that's it, no video. Is there something I must type after the mplayer command or set a certain preference for graphics/video?
My xorg.conf file has:
Driver "intel"
VendorName "Intel Corporation"
BoardName "82810E DC-133 (CGC) Chipset Graphics Controller"And the output for mplayer -vo help is:
MPlayer SVN-r30526-4.4.3 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team

Hello,
I have tried playing video files in console, no X using mplayer. Here's what I type:
mplayer -vo fbdev ringring.flvIt will play the video, and display it on the topleft corner. The output can be scaled (software) so it displays in fullscreen, using mplayer video filter:
mplayer -vo fbdev -vf scale=1366:768 ringring.flvMy hardware is Intel GMA950, and I enable KMS on boot.
Where's my sig?

I've enabled KMS on boot and tried "mplayer -vo fbdev" and "mplayer -vo fbdev -vf scale=1360:768" and I still get the same output.

As always when diagnosing mplayer issues, post the full output. Even better, run "mplayer -v -vo fbdev" to really see what mplayer is doing and post that.

I'm trying to play an .avi file. I also checked /dev and there is no fb0.
Here is the output of mplayer after trying to play the file:

Can't open /dev/fb0
Hmm, are you sure you're using a framebuffer console? KMS should give you one, along with a /dev/fb0.
Next step, then: Look at the output of dmesg. Yous should see something like that in there:
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x37
fb0: inteldrmfb frame buffer deviceIf you don't have that, you haven't set up KMS properly. You should do that. Once you have a fb0, mplayer will work.

I followed the directions from the Intel ArchWiki page (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel). I don't have fb0 listed in /dev though. I checked dmesg and found "Console: colour VGA+ 80x25" but no "fb0:" line.
