mplayer cant come up with missing file
 

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...zo.so1+firefox

hi-

i linked to another thread above. there is this file called
liblzo.so1
in the article above someone mentioned finding it but then didnt
say where. i have looked really hard for this file and cant
come up with it. i believe it is the only thing stopping me
from firing up this mplayer. if anyone knows where i can
get it i'd appreciate it.

i am using suse 9.3
i use the non 64 bit version.
i have an amd athlon processor.
file:///home/thirdshift/Documents/mplayerplug-in-3.11-0.pm.0.i586.rpm
file:///home/thirdshift/Documents/MPlayer-1.0pre7try3-5.i586.rpm

these are the 2 files i want to use to install it.

thanks very much,
jim

find / -name "liblzo.so1" -print should look in the / directory and all subdirectories for liblzo.so1...

Errr... perhaps a typo??? If really liblzo.so.1 then install the lzo rpm for SuSE, you can find it at http://rpm.pbone.net/ or one one the SuSe mirrors.

re: mplayer
 

:scratch:

i give up.
i am going to wait until i get suse 10
and upgrade.

i have mplayer installed.
i go to www.alldanzradio.com to test it.
i click on the station i want to listen to.
a dialog pops up and asks open with mplayer?
i select yes and mplayer opens.
then it just sits there doing nothing.
i know sound is working because i can hear sound
effects on the stereo coming from linux.

at least i learned stuff today like learning how
to specify how to change the source in yast for
an install.

i will just use windows for now.

thanks for helping.
jim

ok, thanks for all the fish!!! :) why didn't you install mplayer using yast? it should have installed everything you need. do you have any mp3's that you can try playing with mplayer?

hi-

i still cant seem to understand the dolphins.

i had mplayer working as a plug-in. it was really generic.
it had a pause stop and play. you couldnt skip songs or
stations.

i want to use kaffeine. when i specify to open a url
to alldanzradio.com i get this error message.
i tried installing xvidcore but it didnt work.
i also tried installing a kaffeine mozilla plug-in.

well unless someone understands this error message and
can help i will listen to music in windows. i still am
determined to try and pick up some more linux. i am
learning a little as i go.

thanks for helping,
jim

hi-

i am going to hook the mplayer plug-in for firefox back up today.
never mind about kaffeine. at least i will have some music to work
with. when i upgrade to suse version 10 i might have better luck.

thanks for everyone helping,
jim

hi again-

just reporting the good news. i have the very nice kaffeine player working for www.live365.com stations and www.shoutcast.com .
i didnt get kaffeine to work at alldanzradio.com but mplayer would play that.
i cant figure out where i went wrong. it isnt meant to be tricky.
i think part of the problem was once i installed mplayer plug-in it took
over my machine kind of. if you dont have the mplayer plug-in installed in the browser,
you can give the machine a chance to ask open the playlist or save to the drive
and then open later with your choice of media player (like kaffeine).
now i have some music to listen to while i learn suse linux.
thanks again,
jim
