+ <A NAME=1>1. Introduction
+
+
+ <A NAME=1.1>1.1. Overview
+
+ <B>MPlayer</B> is a movie player for LINUX. It plays most MPEG, AVI and ASF files,
+ supported by many native and Win32 DLL codecs. You can watch VCD, DVD and
+ even DivX movies too. The another big feature of mplayer is the wide range of
+ supported output drivers. It works with X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev,
+ AAlib, but you can use SDL (and this way all drivers of SDL) and some
+ lowlevel card-specific drivers (for Matrox) too! Most of them supports
+ software or hardware scaling, so you can enjoy movies in fullscreen. And what
+ about the nice big antialiased shaded subtitles (7 supported types!!!) with
+ hungarian, english, cyrillic, czech, korean fonts, and OSD?
+
+ I didn't write any codecs, just some players. I spent
+ a lot of time finding the best way to parse bad damaged input files
+ (both MPEG and AVI) and to do perfect A-V sync with seeking ability.
+ My player is rock solid playing damaged MPEG files (useful for some VCDs),
+ and it plays bad AVI files which are unplayable with the famous
+ windows media player. Even AVI files without index chunk are playable, and
+ you can rebuild their indexes with the -idx option, thus enabling seeking!
+ As you see, stability and quality are the most important things for me,
+ but the speed is also amazing.
+
+
+ <A NAME=1.2>1.2. History
+
+ This began a year ago...
+ I've tried lots of players under linux (mtv,xmps,dvdview,livid/oms,VideoLAN,
+ xine,xanim,avifile,xmmp) but they all have some problem. Mostly with special
+ files or with audio/video sync. Most of them is unable to play both MPEG1,
+ MPEG2 and AVI (DivX) files. Many players have image quality or speed problems
+ too. So I've decided to write/modify one...
+
+ - mpg12play v0.1-v0.3:
+ The first try, hacked together in a half hour!
+ I've used libmpeg3 from www.heroinewarrior.com up to the version 0.3,
+ but there were image quality and speed problems with it.
+ - mpg12play v0.5-v0.87:
+ Mpeg codec replaced with DVDview by Dirk Farin, it was a great stuff,
+ but it was slow and was written in C++ (I hate C++!!!)
+ - mpg12play v0.9-v0.95pre5:
+ Mpeg codec was libmpeg2 (mpeg2dec) by Aaron Holtzman & Michel Lespinasse.
+ It's great, optimized very fast C code with perfect image quality and
+ 100% MPEG standard conformance.
+ - <B>MPlayer</B> v0.3-v0.9:
+ It was a pack of two programs: mpg12playv0.95pre6 and my new simple AVI
+ player 'avip' based on avifile's Win32 DLL loader.
+ - <B>MPlayer</B> v0.10:
+ The MPEG and AVI player in a single binary!
+ - <B>MPlayer</B> v0.11:
+ Some new developers joined and from 0.11 the mplayer project is a team-work!
+ Added .ASF file support, and OpenDivX (see www.projectmayo.com) en/decoding.
+ - <B>MPlayer</B> v0.17 "The IdegCounter"
+ The release version of the 0.11pre after 4 months of heavy development!
+ Try it, and be amazed! Thousands of new features added... and of course
+ old code was improved too, bugs removed etc.
+ - <B>MPlayer</B> 0.18 "The BugCounter"
+ 2 months since 0.17 and here's a new release.. Completed ASF support,
+ more subtitle formats, introduced libao (similar to libvo but to audio),
+ even more stable than ever, and so on. It's a MUST !
+
+
+ <A NAME=1.3>1.3. Installation
+
+ If you plan to use <B>MPlayer</B> on x86 architecture, you possibly want to use
+ Win32 codecs. Download and unzip w32codecs.zip to /usr/lib/win32 .
+ Note: the avifile project has similar codecs package, but it differs
+ from our, so if you want to use all supported codecs, then use
+ our package! However, you can use our codecs package with avifile.
+
+ If you own a Matrox G200/G400/G450 card, then please see the <A HREF="video.html#2.2.1.7">2.2.1.7</A>
+ section in order to gain big speedup. It is important to do these steps
+ _before_ compiling <B>MPlayer</B>, otherwise no Matrox-specific support will be
+ built.
+
+ If you plan to use the ProjectMayo's <B>OpenDivX</B> codec, check the
+ <A HREF="codecs.html#2.1.2.1">2.1.2.1</A> section before compiling.
+
+ Then build <B>MPlayer</B>:
+
+
+ ./configure
+ make
+ make install
+
+
+ It is recommended to browse the output of ./configure , it contains info
+ about what will be built, and what won't. You may also want to view
+ config.h and config.mak files.
+
+ Though not mandatory, the fonts should be installed in order to gain
+ OSD, and subtitle functionality. Download mp_font3.zip (and optional
+ language updates) and optional (if exists) language updates.
+
+
+ mkdir ~/.mplayer/font
+ cd ~/.mplayer/font
+ unzip mp_font3.zip
+ unzip mp_font3_hu.zip
+
+
+ <A NAME=1.4>1.4. What about the GUI ?
+
+ I'm not a GUI programmer. I hate GUIs, I like the pure black 80x25 console.
+ So the player has only keyboard control from the controlling console/xterm now.
+ There is a GUI development for the player, coordinated by Pontscho/Fresh!
+ It's still under development, but it will be merged and released real soon.
+ BTW he needs some nice skins, if you are a good graphician, contact him!!!
+

+ up or down seek backward/forward 1 minute
+ p or SPACE pause movie (press any key to continue)
+ q or ^C stop playing and quit program
+ o toggle OSD : none / seek / seek+timer
+ / and * decrease/increase volume
+ m toggle using master/pcm channel for volume setting
+ f toggle fullscreen (only with -vo sdl)
+
+
+ <A NAME=3.2>3.2. Control from LIRC
+
+ Linux Infrared Remote Control - use an easy to build home-brewn IR-receiver,
+ an (almost) arbitrary remote control and control your linux box with it!
+ More about it at www.lirc.org.
+
+ If you have installed the lirc-package, you can compile <B>MPlayer</B> with LIRC
+ support using ./configure --enable-lirc
+
+ If everything went fine, <B>MPlayer</B> will print a message like
+ LIRC init was successful.
+ on startup. If an error occurs it will tell you. If it doens't tell you
+ anything about LIRC there's no support compiled in. That's it :-)
+
+ The application name for <B>MPlayer</B> is - oh wonder - mplayer_lirc.
+ It understands the following commands:
+
+ PAUSE - pause playing. Any other keystroke will continue replay.
+ QUIT - exit mplayer
+ RWND - 10 secs back
+ FRWND - 60 secs back
+ FWD - skip 10 secs
+ FFWD - skip 60 secs
+ INCVOL - increase volume one percent
+ DECVOL - decrease volmue one percent
+ MASTER - use master mixer channel
+ PCM - use pcm mixer channel
+
+ Don't forget to enable the repeat flag for RWND/FWD in .lircrc. Here's an
+ excerpt from my .lircrc:
+
+ begin
+ remote = CU-SX070
+ prog = mplayer_lirc
+ button = Tape_Play
+ repeat = 1
+ config = FFWD
+ end
+
+ begin
+ remote = CU-SX070
+ prog = mplayer_lirc
+ button = Tape_Stop
+ config = QUIT
+ end
+
+ If you don't like the standard location for the lirc-config file (~/.lircrc)
+ use the -lircconf [filename] switch to specify another file.
+
+
+ <A NAME=3.3>3.3. Streaming from network or pipes
+
+ <B>MPlayer</B> can play media from network, by using the HTTP protocol, and even
+ beta ASF streaming (FROM network) is available.
+ Configuring it is simple, just recompile <B>MPlayer</B> with
+
+
+ ./configure --enable-streaming
+
+
+ <B>MPlayer</B> can read from stdin (NOT named pipes). This can be for example
+ used to play from FTP :
+
+
+ wget ftp://micorsops.com/something.avi -O - | mplayer -

+
+
+ <A NAME=6>6. Misc OS'es
+
+
+ <A NAME=6.1>6.1. Debian packaging
+
+ To build the package, get the cvs version, or .tgz and uncompress it,
+ and cd into programs directory:
+
+
+ cd main
+ fakeroot debian/rules binary
+
+
+ (... mplayer detects hardware/software, builds itself and.. )
+ dpkg-deb: building package `mplayer' in `../mplayer_0.18-1_i386.deb'.
+
+ And now just become root, and :
+
+
+ dpkg -i ../mplayer_0.18-1_i386.deb as root.
+
+
+ Here's how it looks like:
+
+ eyck@incubus:/src/main$ sudo dpkg -i ../mplayer_0.18-1_i386.deb
+ Password:
+ (Reading database ... 26946 files and directories currently installed.)
+ Preparing to replace mplayer 0.17a-1 (using ../mplayer_0.18-1_i386.deb)
+ Unpacking replacement mplayer ...
+ Setting up mplayer (0.18-1) ...
+
+
+ <A NAME=6.2>6.2. FreeBSD
+
+ To build the package you will need GNU make (gmake, /usr/ports/devel/gmake),
+ native BSD make will not work.
+
+ To run <B>MPlayer</B> you will need to re-compile the kernel with
+ "options USER_LDT" (unless you are running -CURRENT, where this is default).
+ If you have a CPU with SSE also use "options CPU_ENABLE_SSE" to use it
+ (FreeBSD-STABLE required, or use kernel patches).
+
+ If <B>MPlayer</B> complains about "CD-ROM Device '/dev/cdrom' not found!" make a
+ symbolic link : ln -s /dev/(your_cdrom_device) /dev/cdrom
+
+ There's no DVD support for FreeBSD yet.
+ Feel free to add it :-)
+
+
+ <A NAME=6.3>6.3. Solaris 8
+
+ AVI file playback works best on Solaris x86, because you have the
+ option to use the win32 codecs on the x86 platform. On Solaris SPARC,
+ you'll find quite a few AVI files with non working video and/or
+ audio playback, because the video/audio codecs using the win32 DLLs
+ are not available. However, <B>DivX/OpenDivX</B> movies should work,
+ when using libavcodec.
+
+ To build the package you will need GNU make (gmake, /opt/sfw/gmake), native
+ Solaris make will not work. Typical error you get when building with solaris'
+ make instead of GNU make:
+
+
+ % /usr/ccs/bin/make
+ make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 25: Unexpected end of line seen
+
+
+ On Solaris SPARC, you need the GNU C/C++ Compiler; it does not matter
+ if GNU C/C++ compiler is configured with or without the GNU assembler.
+
+ On Solaris x86, you need the GNU assembler and the GNU C/C++
+ compiler, configured to use the GNU assembler! The mplayer code on
+ the x86 platform makes heavy use of MMX, SSE and 3DNOW!
+ instructions that cannot be compiled using Sun's assembler
+ /usr/ccs/bin/as.
+
+ The configure script tries to find out, which assembler program is
+ used by your "gcc" command (in case the autodetection fails, use
+ the "--as=/whereever/you/have/installed/gnu-as" option to tell the
+ configure script where it can find GNU "as" on your system).
+
+ Error message from configure on a Solaris x86 system using GCC
+ without GNU assembler:
+
+ % configure
+ ...
+ Checking assembler (/usr/ccs/bin/as) ... , failed
+ Please upgrade(downgrade) binutils to 2.10.1...
+
+ (Solution: Install and use a gcc configured with "--with-as=gas")
+
+ Typical error you get when building with a GNU C compiler that does
+ not use GNU as:
+
+ % gmake
+ ...
+ gcc -c -Iloader -Ilibvo -O4 -march=i686 -mcpu=i686 -pipe -ffast-math
+ -fomit-frame-pointer -I/usr/local/include -o mplayer.o mplayer.c
+ Assembler: mplayer.c
+ "(stdin)", line 3567 : Illegal mnemonic
+ "(stdin)", line 3567 : Syntax error
+ ... more "Illegal mnemonic" and "Syntax error" errors ...
+
+
+ For DVD support you must have the patched libcss installed. Patch:
+ http://www.tools.de/solaris/mplayer/
+
+
+ Due to two bugs in solaris 8 x86, you cannot reliably play DVDs using a
+ capacity >4GB:
+
+ - The sd(7D) driver on solaris 8 x86 driver has bug when accessing a
+ disk block >4GB on a device using a logical blocksize != DEV_BSIZE
+ (i.e. CDROM and DVD media). Due to a 32bit int overflow, a disk
+ address modulo 4GB is accessed.
+ (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/solarisonintel/message/22516)
+
+ - The similar bug is present in the hsfs(7FS) filesystem code (aka
+ ISO9660), hsfs currently does not support partitions/disks >4GB,
+ all data is accessed modulo 4GB
+ (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/solarisonintel/message/22592)
+
+
+ <A NAME=6.4>6.4. StrongARM
+
+ MPlayer is reported to compile on StrongARM. Use the following command line:
+
+
+ ./configure --target=arm-linux --disable-css --with-x11libdir=/usr/arm/lib
+ --with-x11incdir=/usr/arm/lib --disable-gcc-checking
