I thought it used to work, but perhaps that was with the 2014 intel driver that could use SNA on my hardware (intel G41)...
Playing a video file with 'mplayer' or 'mpv' defaults to "xv" video output but this just displays a black window. Forcing "-vo x11" by command line or system default config file (which is another story) works, but nags with deprecation warnings. Does "-vo xv" work on any intel graphics devices? If so, which ones and under what conditions? As to the system-wide config files, 'mpv' quite sensibly uses "/usr/pkg/etc/mpv/mpv.conf". The 'mplayer' documentation is misleading and seems to indicate that the system-wide config file is "/etc/mplayer.conf" which I assumed would really mean "/usr/pkg/etc/mplayer.conf" in a pkgsrc context. I ultimately had to 'ktruss' mplayer to discover that it takes "/usr/pkg/share/mplayer/mplayer.conf" as its system-wide config file. This seems an odd place for a file which may require alteration to suit the prevailing hardware conditions. Perhaps better to put it (and other such config files) in "/usr/pkg/share/examples/mplayer" and copy them to "/usr/pkg/etc/mplayer" or the like if they don't already exist. -- |/"\ John D.
