hi there
change ur screen resolution and depth try 16 bit and then run gmplayer |
No luck,same message accept 16 bpp instead,lower res did not help either.Thx anyways.
|
could u post the log???
|
Maybe try something like this?
gmplayer -vo xv xv from my experience works better then the x11. Just a thought. -tw |

x11 is the x server ,is that too a video driver?? i think both are from different category regards |
Yes, both are video drivers, but in some circumstances 1 works better then the others.
-vo x11 as a video out method is technically tied into the X11 drivers - how, I can't explain, but not the X server itself (xfree86 / xorg) Type: mplayer -vo help wish I could explain more - but not at home right now (on lunch brake). go here: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/video.html#x11 Quote: "Avoid if possible." Thats why I suggested the "-vo xv" switch. Like I said, its just an idea - trying to help. It helped me before. regards -tw |
Ok,here is the log when I change res and depth to 16 bit/800x600

thanks for the info!
i was not myself aware of this driver regards |
Well...I seem to have it all working now.
I downloaded some other skins and put them in the /usr/local/share/mplayer/Skin folder. Then I started mplayer with "gmplayer -skin KDE" and there was colour at last but no fonts.It kept asking for the subfont.ttf in the ~/mplayer folder. So,I tracked down the fonts folder with all the .ttf files and yanked one out,renamed it to subfont.ttf and stuck it in the ~/mplayer folder and then I cracked open some mplayer fonts from the mplayer homepage and shoved them into the ~/mplayer/font folder. I don't know if thats the "proper" way to do it but it works now.Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. |
hi there
when u building mplaer urself u need to extract the skin and fonts and put them this way only regards |
I wrote a note to myself to remember that for the next time.
Thx dude! |
