gmplayer config msglevel

sadarax · 12-18-2006, 01:04 AM

EDIT: This problem has been solved. Thanks for your help.

I am trying to edit my gmplayer config file, but every time I set 'msglevel' it complains about a missing parameter. Here is what I have:

In my ~/.mplayer/config file:

Code:

msglevel all=0

Now, if I use the option -msglevel all=0 from command line to invoke gmplayer, it works just fine... Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

Code:

mplayer -msglevel all=9

and find where problem is. You can get message about your conf file.

Happy Penguins!

In my ~/.mplayer/config file:

Code:

line 31: msglevel all=0

user@host$ gmplayer

The output:

Hi,

Aya, now I know...
line 31 on your penguin should look like:

Code:

msglevel=all=0

Happy Penguins!

mplayer has html documentation for the man pages on their website. The man page could add an example of how to use the option in the configuration file. From the man page, if you have it installed for mplayer:

Quote:

−msglevel <all=<level>:<module>=<level>:...>

Control verbosity directly for each module. The ’all’ module changes the verbosity of all the modules not explicitly specified on the command line. See ’−msglevel help’ for a list of all modules.
NOTE: Some messages are printed before the command line is parsed and are therefore not affected by −msglevel. To control these messages you have to use the MPLAYER_VERBOSE environment variable, see its description below for details.
Available levels:

−1 complete silence
0 fatal messages only
1 error messages
2 warning messages
3 short hints
4 informational messages
5 status messages (default)
6 verbose messages
7 debug level 2
8 debug level 3
9 debug level 4

At first glance you might think it should be -msglevel all=0, or maybe --msglevel all=0 or msglevel <all=0> but as was said by kaz2100, the correct config file for ~/.mplayer/config is "msglevel=all=0".
