Ok, that makes sense then.

Ok, I installed RealPlayer (8 was the newest Linux version Real.com has
for download), and re-emerged mplayer (I thought I'd have to unmerge then
emerge, but it emerged just fine).
But, the exact same things happen.
The codecs are installed at /usr/local/RealPlayer8/Codecs.
RealPlayer itself works just as well as it used to, which I suppose is a good
thing, but I'm still confused as to what's wrong with mplayer.
So I unemerged and emerged (maybe not necessary, but I tried it anyway),
I saw this:
Checking for RealPlayer DLL ... yes
Checking for LIVE.COM Streaming Media libraries ... no
and this:
Enabled optional drivers:
Input: streaming edl tv cdda vcd
Codecs: qtx divx5linux xvid libdv libavcodec real dshow/dmo win32 libvorbis libmad

Audio output: alsa9 esd arts oss sdl mpegpes(file)
Video output: xvidix sdl vesa gif89a jpeg png mpegpes(file) svga aa opengl dga xv

Disabled optional drivers:

Codecs: divx4linux xanim liblzo
Audio output: sgi sun dxr2 nas win32
Video output: bl zr dxr3 dxr2 directx fbdev ggi xmga mga directfb tdfxfb 3dfx
That all looks OK to me, confused gentoo newbie that I am...
Now, not only to real media not work, but some quicktimes that used to work
don't work now either.
Did I screw something up?
Thanks for any help.
Adam
