$OpenBSD: README,v 1.4 2011/07/02 23:10:25 edd Exp $ +----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Running ${FULLPKGNAME} on OpenBSD +----------------------------------------------------------------------- Possible issues with using MPlayer on OpenBSD: all arches: The GUI is deprecated so we stripped it from the build. You can use x11/gnome-mplayer or x11/smplayer instead. Mencoder is not expected to do a good job of multiplexing into container formats other than AVI or MPEG. FFmpeg's Ogg demuxer is broken for Ogg streams. If MPlayer says "cache not filling" when a song changes, you have been bitten by this bug. You can try '-demuxer ogg' as a workaround (or try using ogg123 from the vorbis-tools package). i386: Win32 codecs were disabled in OpenBSD's build, as the open source codecs are now of decent quality. arm: You may encounter slow video output. In this case you can disable the X.Org screen rotation in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Depending on the video you are playing you may want to pass the -framedrop or the -hardframedrop option to mplayer. See the package description for a list of FLAVORs and their meaning.
