playing .mkv with mplayer-vdpau does not work
Hi,
My System is a Atom 330 with an Nvidia ION. The Atom is running at 2 GHz.
I installed the mplayer-vdpau-svn from aur. With this i tried to play a .mkv file.
Without the vdpau parameters the Movie is running, but too slow. When i use the
parameters -vc ffh264vdpau -vo vdpau the mplayer sad that "vo: couldn't open the X11 display ()!"
After setting DISPLAY to :0.0 the output was "vo: couldn't open the X11 display (:0.0)!"
Can somebody help me, please?!
Im not Realy an X user but in this case i think i need it, right?
Greatings

Yes, you need X for VDPAU.

btw, you can simply stick to stock mplayer package from extra, which has vdpau support compiled in, but you will need X.

Re: playing .mkv with mplayer-vdpau does not work
Okay
X is up and shows me the twm with some xterms.
when i now start the mplayer with die -vo vdpau the twm needs a mousclick the put the mplayer window on the Desktop, but my problem is that i don´t have a mous on this machine. I tryed the -fs option, but it doesn´t change anything.
Is there a solution for that Problem?
