Mplayer and divx on Slack 10.2


Trying to view videos through firefox with mplayer on slack 10.2. I have installed mplayer package, mplayer_plug_in package, MPlayer_codecs, libdv, divx611, when I attempt to play a certain url, I get an error stating it can't find library livdivxdecore.so.0

Problem is, I can't find this library. What I have found so far is divx4linux provides this library. I downloaded the rpm (all I could find, off of the packman site) ran rpm2tgz, installed the package, updatedb, locate libdivxdecore, it won't find it.

I think this is what I need to get one step further (I had to install two libraries to get this far), so if someone knows where to get this, please let me know.

Jon

Just make a "/usr/local/lib/codecs/" map and drop all codecs from the "all" package on mplayer's site in it:
