Package: mplayer
Version: 1.0~rc1-16
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Hello. I recently attempted to upgrade my system's kernel to the latest
version in testing (2.6.22-2-powerpc) from 2.6.18-4-powerpc.
After updating the kernel, I tried to play a file in mplayer. A player
window appeared, as though the file was going to play, but nothing
happened. Also, the counter was not moving - it was as though the movie
was on pause on a completely black scene. If I tried to seek, the movie
would skip to the frame and show a still image of that point (the
counter would display the time, but still did not move). The program
did not display any error messages and would still quit normally.
I tried using different vo drivers, attempted playing different file
types, and reinstalled the mplayer package, but nothing worked. I
downgraded the kernel back to 2.6.18-4-powerpc and mplayer now works
normally again.

This bug appears to a caused by a problem in alsa that is manifesting
itself within mplayer. Thus, I think the bug report should be closed,
and I'll resubmit the bug report for alsa.
Thank you everyone for all of your help.

Sean
