mplayer will run on simple NAS which have no X11 and no audio. A "standard" mplayer is built expecting standard PC hardware such as video and audio probably not just a speaker. Your system may not match the options chosen for the standard build.
It is not clear whether you have built mplayer on your system. If you have not built mplayer then do so - it is quite painless (although v. long on slow processors) and the "configure" wil examine your system and usually makes proper choices. You have not provided any info on processor - sometimes less well known processors (e.g. Geode, VIA) cause problems with mplayer "CPU auto-detect" and it decides to use instruction not implemented on the processor. It's hard work debugging mplayer and the mplayer lists will give help but probably onl;y after you build a version of mplayer specific to your system. I don't think there is an immediate alternative to mplayer. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53536 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
