What codec does it is missing? Could you possibly post the output of "mplayer -ao help" and "mplayer -vo help"? I would recommend 'xv' as the video output and 'alsa9' as the audio output. What type of file are you trying to play? Have you tried playing something really simple, like, say an ogg or mp3 file? On Monday 11 November 2002 06:03, Kevin Donnelly wrote:
I had an enjoyable (!) couple of hours working my way through this yesterday. First I installed a whole shedload of -devel packages, and the configure, make and install seemed to go OK. I assume everything overwrote the MPlayer rpm that was already installed. However, although I have various audio possibilities now, I still have no sound - if I run "gmplayer" I get the exact same message that the codec can't be found. If I run "gmplayer -ao sdl", I get lots of stuff scrolling down the screen, and then a message that my PC is too slow to run this (Duron 1.3MHz, 256Mb RAM). Any suggestions?
Thanks
