Hmmm.. your reply invokes a number of human responses...

1. Curiosity - Did the xine not perform for you ?

2. Sassy - Any 3 year old should be able to use mplayer.dsl ..

3. Technical - The mplayer is compiled for MMX/SSE use -
P1/K5/K6 and earlier cpu's will not run ..

4. Directive - Without knowing more about your hardware/setup
it's anyone's guess..

5. Appreciation - "We have a nice consolation prize for you
backstage, and Thanks for Playing ...
W H E E L .... O F .... D S L ! "

Sassy!

thanks for your help, i had to figure out how to "symlink" . had to delete the file first. it's kind of jumpy even after enabling dma. i'm on a P3 550 and thought it would play fine. and btw, we tried, and my 3-year-old couldn't use your extension. so there.

Using a smaller window seems to help with playback.
Remember, there is no video graphics acceleration in DSL with the xvesa.

I have found that the mplayer.dsl is smoother than xine,
so give it a try.. should work with a P3-550
Now that the symlink is in place , it should function just like xine.

I'll make a note that the recommended age is 8-to-80

Also,

I suspect that Xvesa will give better performance than xfbdev X Windows servers

So if you are using xfbdev, I would try out Xvesa and see if performance improves.

Hi

Here it is the specs of Geexbox mplayer version that runs in a P1-MMX. Perhaps may help to improve multimedia playing in dsl. Also the source code is avalaible at this address: http://www.geexbox.org/archzoom/devel@geexbox.org--2004/mplayer

MPlayer was originally written by rpᤠGere&#56922;&#56761; and has been extended and
worked on by many more since then, see the AUTHORS file for an (incomplete)
