ALSA problem in mplayer?

heri0n · 01-16-2005, 07:13 PM

I repeatedly get this message when playing a movie in mplayer

Code:

ALSA lib control.c:739:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL mixer 0 0 0%
alsa-control: mixer attach mixer error: No such file or directory

The movie plays with sound too although a bit choppy because of that message...
anyone have any ideas?

go to The Alsa Project and get teh latest 1.0.9rc2 files and follow the install instructions in the read me and this should fix your issue.

I'm having the same problem, installed the new alsa drivers (1.0.9rc2) but it did not fix my problem.
Could it have something to do with the configuration of mplayer?

In my ~/.mplayer/config, I have set :
ao=alsa

Give it a try
