[solved]mplayer-svn coreavc-for-linux

I'm trying to compile mplayer-svn with support for coreavc
mplayer compiles fine but it doesn't look like coreavc stuff is installing correctly.
Can some kind sirs take a look at this and let me know what is wrong?
I grabbed mplayer-svn PKGBUILD from testing

*edit*
This PKGBUILD successfully built for me and I'm using it on my media computer!  Works great!!! no more choppy videos

Why /usr/local/bin?

Re: [solved]mplayer-svn coreavc-for-linux

Does anyone know if these changes to Mplayer will carry over into Freevo (I'm using Mplayer as media player in freevo)??

I really haven't got a clue how to do all these PKGBUILD-things and if I'm going to learn it I want to be sure it will actually make a difference in freevo.

Btw, I have a Athlon 64 X2 (M) 4200+ 2.2 GHz with a Nvidia 7800GTX and 2GB ram. Big 1080P files stutter or play really slow so if CoreAVC can cure this I'd be forever grateful.

Re: [solved]mplayer-svn coreavc-for-linux

I'm not able to get this working. Do I need Wine?

I used the PKGBUILD genkipseudo provided, but after compiling everything I don't know what to do. The compiled files got put in my "Packages" folder and from there I tried to follow the install notes on the google.code home page to no avail.

Is it enough to delete the installed dependencies and the files in my "Packages" folder or do I have a bunch of files all over my system now? Sorry to be bringing up this solved topic but I wish I could get this working so big .mkv files don't stutter.

Re: [solved]mplayer-svn coreavc-for-linux

You need to get the codec from either windows install or the website also mentions 1.7 installs with wine. (codec file is .ax)

#3,4 on http://code.google.com/p/coreavc-for-li … verInstall
#do 4 on http://code.google.com/p/coreavc-for-li … stallation

that should do it

Re: [solved]mplayer-svn coreavc-for-linux

I have some trouble getting different codecs to work. DivX, xvid, WMV, quicktime etc. doesn't work and as far as I can figure they need to be added somehow to the PKGBUILD file. How do I do this? CoreAVC is working amazingly, but I'm not able to play the media that's not .mkv.

Do you have the package extra/codecs 20071007-1 installed?
