I'm using huludesktop successfully on 12.04 Xubuntu. It used to use it on 10.04, where it was pretty solid. (Well,...
Thanks! I was leary - 4 year old scripts rarely work, but this did exactly what I needed to get boxee to ignore my libvdpau1 problem. Only one slight modification on line 31 - vim is better than...
The plugin works, but puts files in strange places where other programs (boxee for instance) do not find them causing the user to have to ln -s them to other places.
Also, it sets...
There has to be a gnome answer. If you login the local machine, and then connect with the nomachine client, gnome comes up fine.
I'll be danged - I knew it was running from someplace else. Thanks.
I did find that changing to pcl3 helped significantly, thanks gsocker. Though it's still slow. Also, printing draft quality seemed to speed things up on my ancient hp4050TN. XPDF & printing to ps...
Once again, I find myself thanking andrew.46 for posting instructions!
Sorry to post so late, but I wanted to say thanks to you and Linuxforall for the advice! I did not try it yet, I actually removed medibuntu and then reinstalled ffmpeg which removed/reinstalled a...
Oops! I'm sorry! This guide doesn't even INSTALL x264! Apologies! Nevertheless, I would be interested to hear if anybody got mencoder compiled.
Re: Howto: Utilise the svn MPlayer to Improve Karmic Koala's 'mplayer-nogui' Package
Bother! Now, somehow mencoder is broken.

Forgive me, I don't mean to hijack the thread, but I'm also having this exact issue after upgrading.
I've built so much from source, I can't remember; recently mplayer which works like a charm. ...
miro (xine problem actually) h264?
I really did try to do my due diligence before posting this one.
Miro crashes, but it's actually xine's problem. (if ONLY miro worked with mplayer)
I didn't have any issues with Miro before...
By the way, that ppa for smplayer should be:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/rvm/smplayer/ubuntu karmic main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/rvm/smplayer/ubuntu karmic main
Turns out I had to uninstall the last svn mplayer I had installed. One of the options in aptitude was to replace it with mplayer-nogui which I did, for no other reason than to keep it from...
Hum... I've never seen this before! Help?
(Reading database ... 227977 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking mplayer-nogui (from .../mplayer-nogui_3:1.0~svn-r29920-1_i386.deb)...
K, here's what I did in 9.10
1: upgrade alsa:

(I used the repo one of the guys talked about in the...
If it's of any consolation, neither can I. Oh, and don't even think of upgrading to 9.10 because it's worse. It has a sound fade bug that #1. They have no intention of fixing and #2. The...
Never mind! It worked out of the box!
sudo apt-get install gnome-mplayer
./configure
make
checkinstall
Can watch the Apple trailers again:

Thank you very much, Andrew! You're continual guidance is huge help to those of us who continually battle with dependency and compile problems!
Thanks, I was wondering why that didn't work!
You can still download the .miro files and then open them with miro.
Has anybody had any lucky compiling gecko-mediaplayer from svn? Is there a howto somewhere? I believe there is a patch to fix apple trailers which I wish to try.
Thank you kindly for your reply! I didn't know you had Jaunty instructions. They look about the same.
I found you had another page here for jaunty:...
Ah, nuts! Any suggestions? Any help greatly appreciated.

Finally got it working in Jaunty. You need to add this to your /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf:

Finally got it working. The line is "options snd-hda-intel model=ref"
Open up a console and type this:

Add that line, reboot, and hopefully you'll...
