Well, I can get the video podcasts to play, however, I need to remove the xvmc option from MPLAYER_VO_DEV in order to get them to play, they will only play with xv (which makes sense).
my local_conf.py has: if CONF.display == 'x11': MPLAYER_VO_DEV = 'xvmc,xv,sdl,x11' # X11 drivers in order of else: MPLAYER_VO_DEV = CONF.display # e.g.: x11,mga,fbdev, see mplayer MPLAYER_ARGS = { 'dvd' : '-cache 8192', 'mpg' : '-cache 5000 -vc ffmpeg12mc' I add -vc ffmpeg12mc for "mpg" files, all the mpg files are my HD content (MPEG2). I need both xvmc and ffmpeg12mc for mpg files to play, but xvmc doesn't work for flv files. I do see that in mplayer.py, there is code to handle xvmc and ffmpeg12mc options, however, I'm not able to figure out how to get set_vcodec to activate. from mplayer.py set_vcodec = False if item['xvmc'] and item['type'][:6] in ['MPEG-1','MPEG-2','MPEG-T']: set_vcodec = True # Mplayer command and standard arguments if set_vcodec: if item['deinterlace']: bobdeint='bobdeint' else: bobdeint='nobobdeint' command += ['-vo', 'xvmc:%s' % bobdeint, '-vc','ffmpeg12mc'] else: command += ['-vo',config.MPLAYER_VO_DEV + config.MPLAYER_VO_DEV_OPTS] If I could figure out how to get mplayer.py to set_vcodec, then I could remove xvmc from MPLAYER_VO_DEV to get both to work. Thanks for any advice.
