Hi,

I am using Fedora Core 1 (Red Hat 10) on my PC .

I got the movie player for linux MPlayer-0.90.tar.bz2

I uncompressed it and then installed it using
./configure
make
make install


It was installed successfully. But the problem is than when i try to play mpeg files with it it does not show any video & i get to hear only the audio.


I used the command

mplayer song.mpeg

to play the mpeg file at the 'bash' shell with the X server running

it opens the file and prints some output
In between there are lines saying (opening video codec....)

The last line is
Starting playback...................................................

and audio is heard. But there is no video output

I even tried to play the .mpeg files after stopping the X server but to no avail.

Common problem: You've compiled mplayer _before_ installing the codecs. Simple solution: Install the codecs and compile mplayer again. Take a look at the documentation, more precisely here:
