mplayer is crashing when playing the follwoing URL: mms://itatiaia1r.128k.audio.upx.com.br/itatiaia1
I'm using it on iphone 2.1. Previous version was working well but newest one is cutting sound.
In previous version I was able stream audio trough http_proxy, but now I can't :(
Direct connection to the stream plays not music but clicking sounds
(stream http://live.galaradio.com:8000 )
Really nice, but seems to lack MJPEG support. I would need it to view an Elphel network camera. http://www.elphel.com/ & http://wiki.elphel.com/
Works really well for me- downloaded files (xvid+mp3 from eztv.it) play in sync with frame skip "on". (there is some difficulty/skip in high motion scenes and with some key frames)
Thanks!
plz man, add the m3u support for playing music. Why the "Play All" option for music folders has disappear?
Thx and well done for ur work!
Cheers,
Tieum
hey, why don't you just let us choose to put in our specific directory ?
volume in /root is just tiny compared to /home !!!
this is an awesome player but i s still getting chuppy avi playback really baad and wmv is great but it freezes like every 7 deccs and then resumes
When skipping in WMV files now audio cuts out. This was working fine in the previous version.
Yeah,
DivX/Xvid with Frame Skip on is go delicious....
good work man
Have you had a look at the tricks ARM put in it's "openmax" implementation?I am not saying the performance is already impressive, but the ARM people really should know these things best.
This new mplayer doesn't work for me. The previous versions worked fine, but the new one just crashes to the spring board no matter what. This problem is there for me on 2.1 and 2.2 firmware and even after I did a clean restore to 2.2 the problem is still there.
Anyone have any ideas?
I've got the same problem as PCwiz.
also i was wondering if in de next version maybe
tv-out is added? like

and if it is possible to loop a movie?
I have an iphone 3g with 2.2 and jailbroken. when i click mplayer it just opens and closes. i rebooted many times and ive reinstalled it many times and still doesnt work
you need to create a folder /private/var/media (all lowercase) first.
