Well, you could also just download the RPMs from my site: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=28610 mplayer MPlayer-0.90pre8-5.i686.rpm MPlayer-0.90pre8-5.src.rpm MPlayer-skins-0.90pre8-5.i686.rpm [optional] This RPM makes ALSA 0.9.x the default output audio format, so there should be no problems with sound. NOTE: You need the libdvdread RPM to play DVDs using this RPM. SuSE 8.1 has this, so just install my RPMs using YaST2 and it will automatically resolve the dependencies. :) On Sunday 10 November 2002 07:02, Clayton Cornell wrote:
MPlayer as provided with SuSE8.1 does not have all the codecs or video support it is capable of enabled. The simplest solution to fix this is to go to http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/ and download the latest version along with the codecs and the skin you like (all provided on the site).
1. Unzip the codecs to /usr/lib/win32 2. Unzip the MPlayer source and cd to that directory 3. ./configure --enable-gui 4. make 5. su to root and make install 6. Unzip the skin to $HOME/.mplayer/Skin 7. If you installed MPlayer with YaST, open your filemanager and tweak the file associations to launch gmplayer instead of mplayer.
That should do it. With the recompile you get support for pretty much every single video format out there.
