[SOLVED] Kernel 3.17.1.1 + mplayer/VLC = no movie

I am using i686, nouveau and a 'VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1)'.

After upgrade linux (3.16.4-1 -> 3.17.1-1) my mplayer don´t show movie anymore, i only can hear the audio without mplayer frontend/images/window.

cvlc can show some movies but when i type 'f' to fullscreen it get frozen/freezed.

Was working fine, the problem was started after the last -Syu in day 21 or 22 oct.

I have 'Linux 3.14.22-1-lts' installed and is working fine, the problem happens only with the latest stock kernel (3.17.1-1).

My system is with all packages updated to latest versions on oficial stable repository.

Re: [SOLVED] Kernel 3.17.1.1 + mplayer/VLC = no movie

Maybe it can reveal the problem, i don´t know:
https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … e7750e5356

I only know the mplayer and vlc isn´t working fine with latest stock kernel. Don´t play .mp4, .rmvb, etc files.

semeion, please edit your post.
When posting configs, code or command output, please use [ code ] tags https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode

like this

It makes the code more readable and - in case of longer listings - more convenient to scroll through.

Re: [SOLVED] Kernel 3.17.1.1 + mplayer/VLC = no movie

I can confirm the problem. I can play videos with mplayer, if i choose x11 as output, not xv like before. The x11 output is slow as hell, but it works.

Re: [SOLVED] Kernel 3.17.1.1 + mplayer/VLC = no movie

I'm using mpv and the intel drivers and everything works fine: xv, opengl and even hw accel.
What drivers are you using?

Re: [SOLVED] Kernel 3.17.1.1 + mplayer/VLC = no movie

karol, i was asking to Usul, he have same issue like me.

I am using nouveau i686 like i have mentioned in first post.

I really think this time it is a upstream misconfigured stock kernel, maybe only to i686 with nouveau and NV34 videocard. NV34 don´t support vdpau, the driver can´t try use vdpau on a NV34. hmm

Usul, what is your videocard?

Re: [SOLVED] Kernel 3.17.1.1 + mplayer/VLC = no movie

yes, i can confirm the problem too, the new kernel 3.17 don´t permit the use of xv as output like before, have the new kernel droped xv video support to NV34/i686?

Re: [SOLVED] Kernel 3.17.1.1 + mplayer/VLC = no movie

@semeion

THX for pointing out this fix. The description matches perfectly to my problem and system environment.

I'm using a NV44A [GeForce 6200] on an ancient AGP board with an AMD X2 CPU, running Archlinux  x86_64.

I think the admin can mark this topic like [Solved], because all know the fix and this problem very probably will be solved in the 17.1.x.

Re: [SOLVED] Kernel 3.17.1.1 + mplayer/VLC = no movie

Good news! Minutes ago, I updated to the latest kernel on my archlinux box, version number 3.17.3. LWN:

drm/nouveau: fix regression on agp boards

One reboot later, I can confirm that (at least in my case) the problem is finally solved!
