This is a very old thread. MPlayer has been improved a lot and the bug in the original post is gone. A standard build or install of mplayer will work with AlienBBC. However some bundles of MPlayer launch a GUI which is NOT the version you need for AlienBBC.
I am not familiar with Centos but there used to be some repostories where you could use yum to install mplayer. If there is no suitable repository then you could build mplayer - the instruction below work for most Linux systems. 1. Download the source - do not be tempted by the rpm. Download into your /tmp directory and extract. http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/MPlayer-1.0rc2.tar.bz2 2. cd into the mplayer folder and run these commands. 3. ./configure 4. If no errors type "make" 5. if no errors - the following must be done with root privileges - type "make install" 6.Check that streaming works through mplayer. mplayer rtsp://rmlive.bbc.co.uk:554/bbc-rbs/rmlive/ev7/live24/radio4/live/r4_dsat_g2.ra -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=17015 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
