I installed mplayer GUI today on Ubuntu 10.04, had been using command line only for long :)
When I tried to open Video file it gave /dev/mag_vo error. I googled and found that I have to select some other driver for playing since that one is broken.
I then selected gl2 and now video is working fine
But when I try to load subtitles, I get the following error on the terminal:
[GUI] Loading subtitles: /home/scoobydo/movies/lotr.fotr.srt
SUB: Could not determine file format
Cannot load subtitles: /home/scoobydo/movies/lotr.fotr.srt
It is simple srt file and VLC is able to show the subtitles without any hitch. But I want to run gmplayer only :D
I also noticed that mplayer also was not able to pick these subtitles(it's same as avi file name and in same directory)
Any ideaz ??
