I think you just didnt set the vo for your mplayer, do mplayer -vo x11 (later on you might want to fool around with the other ones cuz X11 is the slowest).
|
or better -vo xv, should be fine.
|
but i still getting some error messages about subfont-ttf isn there
cheers erling |
you want to create a link from the ttf font you want to use, e.g. /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype/arial.ttf to either....
/home/user/.mplayer/subfont.ttf or /usr/share/mplayer/subfont.ttf so do this... ln -s /blah/arial.ttf /otherblah/subfont.ttf should load fine with the on screen display. you could always temporarily not use the on screen display by setting -osdlevel 0 on the command line. |
thx but every time i start mplayer i have to chose -vo is there
any config file i can set xv as default cheers erling |
i figured it out out thx for all help
|
was there a spesifc meaning with that i should use xv
beacause when i use xv little whith dots show up some thimes but in x11 this prob is fixed!! cheers erling |
X11 is a more generic video output, but it will use at least twice as much CPU time as XV, so just be aware that it may impact your system's performance more than a more optimized video output method

ok
