Yawl missed it still. I didn't use start-stop-daemon with this binary because of the way it writes output but it will probably work with a little tweaking. To get it to release the console we...

:KSDamn Lawyers!;)

Very nice guide, especially for a complete mencoder solution. But it's not a Kovensky build. In my 10+ compiles now it performs the best for playback and overall stability.

MPlayer
Build by Kovensky

Gleaned from all the previous posts, here is a working "handful" that will download and compile the latest Kovensky mplayer using ffmpeg-mt branch. Not meant for the...

This thread is about compiling a THREADED version of mplayer. See the mplayer site and make sure you've installed all the necessary dependencies.

Apparently apple changed the way it initiates HD video playback recently and it's incompatible with totem. Karmic repo has a later version of totem that works fine for playing HD trailers, at least...

Huh? Threaded mencoder? Now that could be cool.

If only we had a threaded C++ or GCC compiler life, for the moment, would be peaceful... ;);)

You can probably ignore this. I probably won't work.

Ya know yall don't need to do anything fancy to compile this program. The dependencies were just renamed.

Red5 flash media streamer is cool. Makes it more difficult to steal bandwidth by streaming flash content. Requires Java5-bin or Java6-bin.


IPTRAF is also cool for monitoring your net hardware,...

Perfect, Thank you. I love it when people take the time to write airtight scripts!

NO biggie, mixing Jaunty and Intrepid repos is the problem. I'll just have to load a virtual copy of Intrepid to compile it I suppose. Thanks for the response and all the time and effort you've put...

No quotes but I do have a question.

I've avoided using Linux until the horrible video tearing with ATI drivers is under control. Seems that milestone is being reached with the release of Jaunty....

You can partially correct the flicker by running:
gstreamer-properties
Select the video option that works correctly.

You can get reasonable video by installing smplayer. It even has a special...

Below I stated that xv will not work with FGLRX. This is now untrue. As of ATI Catalyst version 8.9 the xv output works fine. It does still flash wildly in 3D mode tbough....

Follow the Ubuntu install guide. It works even with the 8.9 driver.

You can use x11 video just fine with fglrx and it works very well with the aiglx (3d) enabled. Just set your video output to X11.
