Import of mplayer-0.90pre3 - Movie Player
MPlayer is a movie player for LINUX (runs on many other Unices, and
non-x86 CPUs, see the documentation). It plays most MPEG, VOB, AVI,
VIVO, ASF/WMV, QT/MOV, FLI, NuppelVideo, yuv4mpeg, FILM, RoQ, and some
RealMedia files, supported by many native, XAnim, and Win32 DLL codecs.
You can watch VideoCD, SVCD, DVD, 3ivx, FLI, and even DivX movies too
(and you don't need the avifile library at all!).
Submitted by Björn Sandell <biorn@dce.chalmers.se>, work also done by me
Withstanding issues: see how to deal with optimization detection at build
time so that binary packages can be created; check make it work on
platforms other than i386, etc. things can be done in-tree.

|
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), VESA (on every VESA
|
|
|
|
|
compatible card, even without X!), and some lowlevel card-specific
|
|
|
|
|
drivers (for Matrox, 3Dfx and Radeon) too! Most of them supports
|
|
|
|
|
software or hardware scaling, so you can enjoy movies in fullscreen.
|
|
|
|
|
MPlayer supports displaying through some hardware MPEG decoder boards,
|
|
|
|
|
such as the DVB and DXR3/Hollywood+ ! And what about the nice big
|
|
|
|
|
antialiased shaded subtitles (9 supported types!!!) with european/ISO
|
|
|
|
|
8859-1,2 (hungarian, english, czech, etc), cyrillic, korean fonts, and
|
|
|
|
|
OSD?

|
MPlayer might fail due to lack of shared memory, eg when using gui mode
|
|
|
|
|
under KDE. Starting with OpenBSD 3.3, sysctl(8) can modify the shared
|
|
|
|
|
memory parameters. A reasonable choice would be:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
kern.shminfo.shmseg=32
|
|
|
|
|
kern.shminfo.shmall=32768
