I downloaded the SUNWmlib 2.2 packages, and installed the sparcv8plus+vis library and headers in the proper places (and done a symbolic link from libmlib.so to libmlib.so.2). I can't compile mplayer with mlib support, I tried with both mplayer-1.0pre1 and pre2. Sometimes mplayer crashes, sometimes I can't even start it (when I try to execute it or simply when I try a 'ldd mplayer', I get: "Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dynamic-link.h: 62: elf_get_dynamic_info: Assertion `! "bad dynamic tag"' failed!"). When this happens, the linker told me just before that libmlib.so depends on libc.so.1 and libm.so.1, which don't exist on my system. I tried making symbolic links to libc.so.6 and libm.so.6, with no luck. I use CFLAGS="-O4 -mcpu=v9 -mtune=ultrasparc -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe", and without mlib, I can get a decent speed (I still must drop frames, though). Antonello, I also have weird colors on my Creator3D card when playing DIVX movies. Here's what I do to solve this: - if you run gmplayer, run it with an additional: "-vf rgb2bgr=swap" - if you run mplayer, run it with the same line as above, but also decrease the contrast manually (key 1, not the one from the keypad); I can't change it by a command line That works for me, and drops a little more frames. I use the x11 video output driver, not sdl (which is slower for me). -- Erwann ABALEA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - RSA PGP Key ID: 0x2D0EABD5 ----- Think carefully before wishing, it might just come true.
