Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] SFE multimedia players and codecs
+1 on mplayer. VLC used to work, now MPlayer does a great job on all my multimedia formats.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] SFE multimedia players and codecs
I use mplayer2 for videos and mod/Sonata for music with no issue. On the subject of mplayer, though, I've noticed that mplayer2 throws some AO-ALSA errors as part of the command-line output when playing a video. Is it possible that the mplayer2 package was built with some extra features enabled that OI doesn't need? 2012/11/08 16:25、Bryan Iotti ironsides.med...@gmail.com のメッセージ: +1 on mplayer.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] SFE multimedia players and codecs
I've tried to install some multimedia support to that OI laptop of mine, and while all the codec packages seem to have been selected and installed, the multitude of installed players refuse to play anything - from MP3's to movies. I was surprised to see even VLC refuse to do anything, though I previously thought that it has some codecs of their own implementation built in (not shared from external libraries). Anyhow, are there any hoops to jump through beside installing the players and codecs, so that the former would know about the latter?
