Hi,

We has installed MPlayer-w100 adapted Linux Zaurus Screen.  We need
following files to use MPlayer.

  http://www.self-core.org/~kaoru-k/pub/mpla...rc2.1-1_arm.ipk
  http://www.self-core.org/~kaoru-k/pub/libv...1.2.0-1_arm.ipk
  http://kimux.org/liza/arc/libiconv_1.8-2_arm.ipk

We can perform IPv6 HTTP Streaming on Linux Zaurus from IPv6 Web
Server.

  From Zaurus Termial Window application (disabling VGA mode),

  [Zaurus] $ mplayer -vo fbdev:vidix -dr -framedrop -quiet -ac mad -vop rorate=1 http://WEB_SERVER/~mitsuya/hoge.mpg

  The screen dump: http://www.gazongas.net/~mitsuya/note/mobl...803961.87-0.jpg


thanks,
Koshiro

Does this work with any  mplayer version available for pdaxrom ? I've no server to test it...

[Xumbi]

I was playing with this last night.  It sort of worked, the video started to play, but it was so choppy it wasn't watchable.  The weird thing is, now I can't watch videos even outside of X like I always could.  I removed the driver, did a rm -rf ~/.mplayer, reinstalled mplayer, still no luck.  The video starts to play, but it never gets passed the first frame.   

Well, I reinstalled mplayer and all its dependencies, now videos play fine when I use the -nosound option, but without it I still can't get passed the first frame...

Any ideas?

Update: Here's the output when I try to play the Spiderman 2 trailer with sound from pocketmovies.net (this used to work fine):

Any ideas?

Mplayer uses a floating-point mp3 decoder by default, and it is crawling slow on Z because there is no hardware floating point unit on it. To use a fixed-point decoder, which is quite fast, pass a '-ac mad' option to the mplayer.

That did it!  I can't believe I forgot that.  Thanks!
