Wasn't there an updated non-MUI-version of Andrea's MPlayer in the AMC package? This is the version I use (not in front of my machine atm, so I can't check now...). AFAIK the crash-on-exit-problem should be soved with it...

Where can I find this?

I've never seen a crash on exit with afxgroup's version SVN-r29532-4.2.3 (summer reloaded). Did it always do this for you?

Only sporadic - sometimes when playing videos through GetVideo/Clipdown. With the "AMC version" I never got these crashes (up to now - knock on wood...).

If launcing from the command line add -vo cgx_wpa

like so

mplayer -vo cgx_wpa path/to/a/video.avi


to use it by default edit

work:mplayer/generic/conf/config

and add the line

vo=cgx_wpa

there's comment in that file that shows you where to put that.

Update to the above, you can do the same same directly from the MUI GUI by choosing Preferences from the Settings menu.

Heh. I should have said when using MPlayer standalone and not with utube.
ok. I've seen that as well, but only with getvideo/clipdown. It would be interesting to make a different codec choice from those offered prior to playing and see if the crash is there for all choices.

Actually, it shouldn't be needed to choose manually cgx_wpa at all in this case, because when overlay is not available (assuming preinit method was implemented correctly in p96pip driver), MPlayer will fallback to the next video driver, which is cgx_wpa.

@Fab

Yep, and that how it works for other users who use RadeonHD drivers which not have overlay: if overlay not available, then it swith to cgw_wpa. I think that sicky still use old version of mplayer, or wrongly install it, or kind of.

@sicky
Check your thread on amigans, i write some step-by-step guide

Well, if one runs MPlayer and explicitely requests p96pip (-vo p96pip in command line or config file, and without the fallbacks following separated by a comma), then MPlayer will just attempt the requested driver and exit if it can't be initialized.

@Fab

But for what sicky will run it like that ? Imho everyone just unpack it, and run. If he is advanced enough to run with p96 driver in command line, then we should't have that thread at all :)

To be clear:

afxgroup's version SVN-r29532-4.2.3 (summer reloaded).

With overlay this version exits cleanly. Using SDL it DSI's on exit (known problem). Earlier version MPlayer Epiphany does not exhibit this error with exit when using SDL (also known).

I suspect those of you reporting errors on exit are using it without overlay.

On the issue of using the AMC version:

I did that, launched MPlayer, selected a movie and nothing happens whatsoever! It's the same if I try and use muimplayer or the one included in the AMC package. But if I launch without that line it works and if I press the 'F' key it changes to a window display?

You could change it to "vo=sdl" and I bet it would work.
That's the default -without- overlay in the earlier (afxgroup) versions.

I can be wrong, but as i remember, fab's muimplayer do not have sdl drivers inbuild, but afxgroup's one sure have.

Yes

But since then I grabbed the one in the AMC package and set the option vo=cgx_wpa and it works fine. It did crash my system on exit but think that might have been down to previous GR's after normal version exits (twice at least) shall try fresh later today.

Launch MuiMplayer from its Icon.
Then Go to the Menu
Settings is the last Menu Item.
Select Preferences from this.
A window will open the with the options.
First option is Video driver,
Select the down arrow until it shows cgx_wpa .
Select save at the bottom of the window

"Sans gui" mplayer can read standard input, better (less hiccup) with cache. Muimplayer fails with or without cache. I have used many of the MorphOS releases, but only on file or DVD.
