1682 | 159 <P><B><A NAME=1>1. Introduction</A></B></P> |
160 | |
161 <P><B><A NAME=1.1>1.1. Overview</A></B></P> | |
162 | |
1731 | 163 <P><B>MPlayer</B> is a movie player for LINUX (runs on many other Unices, and |
2690 | 164 <B>non-x86</B> CPUs, see <A HREF="#6">section 6</A>). It plays most MPEG, VOB, |
165 AVI, VIVO, ASF/WMV, QT/MOV files, supported by many native, XAnim, and Win32 | |
166 DLL codecs. You can watch <B>VideoCD</B>, <B>SVCD</B>, <B>DVD</B>, <B>3ivx</B>, | |
167 and even <B>DivX</B> movies too (and you don't need the avifile library at | |
168 all!). The another big feature of mplayer is the wide range of supported output | |
169 drivers. It works with X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev, AAlib, but you can | |
170 use SDL (and this way all drivers of SDL) and some lowlevel card-specific | |
171 drivers (for Matrox, 3Dfx and Radeon) too! Most of them supports software or | |
2745 | 172 hardware scaling, so you can enjoy movies in fullscreen. <B>MPlayer</B> |
173 supports displaying through some hardware MPEG decoder boards, such as the | |
2761 | 174 <B><A HREF="DVB">DVB</A></B> and <B> <A HREF="DXR3">DXR3/Hollywood+</A></B> ! |
175 And what about the nice big antialiased shaded subtitles (<B>9 supported | |
176 types!!!</B>) with european/ISO 8859-1,2 (hungarian, english, czech, etc), | |
177 cyrillic, korean fonts, and OSD?</P> | |
1612 | 178 |
2138 | 179 <P><B>MPlayer</B> is basically GPL, but contains some non-GPL code which is not |
180 allowed to be distributed in binary form, and also contains the OpenDivX | |
181 library which has special license.</P> | |
1859 | 182 |
1682 | 183 <P>I didn't write any codecs, just some players. I spent |
184 a lot of time finding the best way to parse bad damaged input files | |
185 (both MPEG and AVI) and to do perfect A-V sync with seeking ability. | |
186 My player is rock solid playing damaged MPEG files (useful for some VCDs), | |
187 and it plays bad AVI files which are unplayable with the famous | |
188 windows media player. Even AVI files without index chunk are playable, and | |
189 you can rebuild their indexes with the -idx option, thus enabling seeking! | |
190 As you see, stability and quality are the most important things for me, | |
191 but the speed is also amazing.</P> | |
1612 | 192 |
1682 | 193 <P><B><A NAME=1.2>1.2. History</A></B></P> |
1612 | 194 |
1682 | 195 <P>This began a year ago... |
196 I've tried lots of players under linux (mtv,xmps,dvdview,livid/oms,VideoLAN, | |
197 xine,xanim,avifile,xmmp) but they all have some problem. Mostly with special | |
198 files or with audio/video sync. Most of them is unable to play both MPEG1, | |
199 MPEG2 and AVI (DivX) files. Many players have image quality or speed problems | |
200 too. So I've decided to write/modify one...</P> | |
1612 | 201 |
1682 | 202 <P><UL> |
203 <LI><B>mpg12play v0.1-v0.3:</B><BR> | |
1612 | 204 The first try, hacked together in a half hour! |
205 I've used libmpeg3 from www.heroinewarrior.com up to the version 0.3, | |
206 but there were image quality and speed problems with it. | |
1682 | 207 <LI><B>mpg12play v0.5-v0.87:</B><BR> |
1612 | 208 Mpeg codec replaced with DVDview by Dirk Farin, it was a great stuff, |
209 but it was slow and was written in C++ (I hate C++!!!) | |
1682 | 210 <LI><B>mpg12play v0.9-v0.95pre5:</B><BR> |
211 Mpeg codec was libmpeg2 (mpeg2dec) by Aaron Holtzman & Michel Lespinasse. | |
1612 | 212 It's great, optimized very fast C code with perfect image quality and |
213 100% MPEG standard conformance. | |
1682 | 214 <LI><B>MPlayer v0.3-v0.9:</B><BR> |
1612 | 215 It was a pack of two programs: mpg12playv0.95pre6 and my new simple AVI |
216 player 'avip' based on avifile's Win32 DLL loader. | |
1682 | 217 <LI><B>MPlayer v0.10:</B><BR> |
1612 | 218 The MPEG and AVI player in a single binary! |
1682 | 219 <LI><B>MPlayer v0.11:</B><BR> |
1612 | 220 Some new developers joined and from 0.11 the mplayer project is a team-work! |
221 Added .ASF file support, and OpenDivX (see www.projectmayo.com) en/decoding. | |
1682 | 222 <LI><B>MPlayer v0.17 "The IdegCounter"</B><BR> |
1612 | 223 The release version of the 0.11pre after 4 months of heavy development! |
224 Try it, and be amazed! Thousands of new features added... and of course | |
225 old code was improved too, bugs removed etc. | |
2002 | 226 <LI><B>MPlayer 0.18 "The BugCounter"</B><BR> |
1612 | 227 2 months since 0.17 and here's a new release.. Completed ASF support, |
228 more subtitle formats, introduced libao (similar to libvo but to audio), | |
229 even more stable than ever, and so on. It's a MUST ! | |
2210 | 230 <LI><B>MPlayer 0.50 "The Faszom(C)ounter"</B><BR> |
2002 | 231 Hmm. Release again. Tons of new features, beta GUI version, bugs fixed, |
232 new vo and ao drivers, ported to many systems, including opensource DivX | |
233 codecs and much more. Try it! | |

1682 | 237 <P><B><A NAME=1.3>1.3. Installation</A></B></P> |
1612 | 238 |
1748 | 239 <P>You'll need the following packages and versions if you don't want to |
240 experience any problems:<BR> | |
241 <UL> | |
242 <LI><B>binutils</B> - suggested version is <B>2.11.x</B> . This program is | |
243 responsible for generating MMX/3DNow!/etc instructions, thus very important.</LI> | |
244 <LI><B>gcc</B> - suggested version is from <B>2.95.2</B> to <B>2.95.4</B>. | |
245 <B>NEVER</B> use 2.96 or 3.x.x !!! They generate faulty code.</LI> | |
246 <LI><B>XFree86</B> - suggested version is <B>always the newest (4.1.0)</B>. Normally | |
2745 | 247 everyone wants this. If you don't know why, you <B>do</B> need it. Make |
248 sure its <B>development package</B> is installed too !</LI> | |
1748 | 249 <LI><B>make</B> - suggested version is <B>always the newest</B> (at least 3.79.x). This |
250 usually isn't important.</LI> | |
1987 | 251 <LI><B>SDL</B> - it's not mandatory, but can help in some cases. Always |
252 use the newest (beginning from 1.2.x).</LI> | |
1748 | 253 </UL> |
254 </P> | |
255 | |
256 <P>Read the following before trying to compile <B>MPlayer</B>:</P> | |
257 | |
1703 | 258 <UL> |
2488 | 259 <LI>If you have <B>gcc 2.96</B> on your system, <A HREF="faq.html#5.1"><B><I>READ |
2587 | 260 THIS!!!</I></B></A></LI> |
2488 | 261 |
1703 | 262 <LI>If you plan to use <B>MPlayer</B> on x86 architecture, you possibly want to use |
2745 | 263 Win32 codecs. If you only want to play DVDs and DivXes, you probably don't |
264 want these, since the <B>libavcodec</B>'s DivX decoder (see below) is the | |
265 fastest decoder available, and DVD is decoded with the <B>libmpeg2</B> | |
266 library.<BR> | |
267 If you want to play or encode for example movies recorded with digital cameras (example: | |
268 DV), you must install them. Download and unzip w32codecs.zip to /usr/lib/win32 . | |
1682 | 269 Note: the avifile project has similar codecs package, but it differs |
1731 | 270 from ours, so if you want to use all supported codecs, then use |
1703 | 271 our package! However, you can use our codecs package with avifile.</LI> |
1682 | 272 |
2745 | 273 <LI>If you own a Matrox G200/G400/G450/G550 card, then please see the <A HREF="video.html#2.3.1.7">mga_vid</A> |
1682 | 274 section in order to gain big speedup. It is important to do these steps |
1748 | 275 <I>before</I> compiling <B>MPlayer</B>, otherwise no Matrox-specific support will be |
2745 | 276 built. Also check out the <A HREF="video.html#2.3.1.A.1">Matrox TV-out</A> |
2488 | 277 section.</LI> |
1682 | 278 |
2290 | 279 <LI>If you own a 3Dfx Voodoo3/Banshee card, then please see the <A |
2745 | 280 HREF="video.html#2.3.1.9">2.3.1.9</A> section in order to gain big speedup. It |
2048 | 281 is important to do these steps <I>before</I> compiling <B>MPlayer</B>, |
2745 | 282 otherwise no 3Dfx support will be built. Also see the <A HREF="video.html#2.3.1.A.3">3dfx |
2488 | 283 TV out section</A>.</LI> |

2745 | 285 <LI>If you own an ATI card, see the <A HREF="video.html#2.3.1.A.2">ATI cards |
286 section</A> of the TV-out documentation, to know what features of your card is supported under Linux/MPlayer.</LI> | |
2471 | 287 |
1703 | 288 <LI>If you plan to use the ProjectMayo's <B>DivX4</B> codec, check the |
2745 | 289 <A HREF="codecs.html#2.2.1.1">2.2.1.1</A> section before compiling. |
2290 | 290 This codec can play old <B>DivX</B> movies much faster than the Win32 DLL. |
291 If you want to play movies with the new <B>DivX4</B> codec, it's | |
292 <B>recommended</B> to use this library, instead the DivX.dll in the | |
293 w32codecs.zip package. The codec itself is closed-source, and only an x86 | |
2745 | 294 version is available. <I>You also need this codec for <B>MEncoder</B>, see |
295 below !</I></LI> | |
1731 | 296 |
297 <LI>If you plan to use ffmpeg's <B>libavcodec</B>, check the | |
2745 | 298 <A HREF="codecs.html#2.2.1.2">2.2.1.2</A> section before compiling. |
2290 | 299 You'll need this to <B>gain <I>DivX/DivX4</I> playing on non-x86 machines</B>, |
300 and this codec has the <B>greatest decoding speed</B> for DivX and DivX4 | |
301 movies (even faster than the original DivX4 library itself) !</LI> | |
1703 | 302 |
2001 | 303 <LI>For DVD support, you'll have to compile libdvdread and libdvdcss. |
1703 | 304 See <A HREF="cd-dvd.html#4.2">section 4.2</A> for more information.</LI> |
2062 | 305 |
306 <LI>Decide if you need GUI. If you do, see the <A HREF=#1.4>1.4 section</A> | |
307 before compiling.</LI> | |
2411 | 308 |
2745 | 309 <LI>If you want to install <B>MEncoder</B> (our great all-purpose encoder), |
310 see the <A HREF="encoding.html#2.4">MEncoder section</A> .</LI> | |
311 | |
312 <LI>If you want to play <B>3ivx</B> movies, check the <A HREF=codecs.html#2.2.1.3> | |
313 XAnim codecs section</A>.</LI> | |
1703 | 314 </UL> |
1612 | 315 |
1682 | 316 <P>Then build <B>MPlayer</B>:</P> |
317 | |
318 <PRE> ./configure | |
319 make | |
320 make install</PRE> | |
1612 | 321 |
2745 | 322 <P><B><I>ALWAYS browse the output of ./configure</I></B> , it contains info |
1682 | 323 about what will be built, and what won't. You may also want to view |
324 config.h and config.mak files.</P> | |
1612 | 325 |
1682 | 326 <P>Though not mandatory, the fonts should be installed in order to gain |
2113 | 327 OSD, and subtitle functionality. Download mp-arial-iso-8859-*.zip and/or optional |
1987 | 328 (if exists) language updates. It's VERY RECOMMENDED to check |
329 <A HREF=#1.5>section 1.5</A> for details.</P> | |
1612 | 330 |
1682 | 331 <PRE> mkdir ~/.mplayer/font |
332 cd ~/.mplayer/font | |
2113 | 333 unzip mp-arial-iso-8859-1.zip</PRE> |
1612 | 334 |
1846 | 335 <P>Only one thing remains: copy the <B>codecs.conf</B> file from the <CODE>etc</CODE> |
2745 | 336 directory (relative to the <B>MPlayer</B> tree) to <CODE>$HOME/.mplayer/codecs.conf</CODE> . |
337 You should also check the manpage and <CODE>example.conf</CODE> for available options, and insert them | |
338 into your config file, <CODE>$HOME/.mplayer/config</CODE> .</P> | |
1846 | 339 |
1612 | 340 |
1682 | 341 <P><B><A NAME=1.4>1.4. What about the GUI?</A></B></P> |
1612 | 342 |
2001 | 343 <P>The GUI is built upon GTK, so gtk (and it's devel stuff) has to be installed. |
2104 | 344 You can build it by specifying <CODE>--enable-gui</CODE> during ./configure . |
2001 | 345 Then, to turn on GUI mode, you either |
346 <UL> | |
347 <LI>use the <CODE>-gui</CODE> option</LI> | |
348 <LI>specify <CODE>gui=yes</CODE> in your config file</LI> | |
349 <LI><CODE>ln -s /usr/local/bin/mplayer /usr/local/bin/gmplayer</CODE> , | |
350 and call <CODE>gmplayer</CODE> instead. | |
351 </UL> | |
352 </P> | |
1612 | 353 |
2062 | 354 <P>As <B>MPlayer</B> doesn't have a skin included, you have to download them |
355 if you want to use the GUI. See the <A HREF="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/dload.html">download page</A>. | |
356 They should be extracted to the usual system-wide directory (<CODE>/usr/local/share/mplayer/Skin</CODE>), | |
357 or to <CODE>$HOME/.mplayer/Skin</CODE> . <B>MPlayer</B> by default looks in | |
358 these directories for a <I>default</I> named directory, but you can use the | |
359 <I>-skin newskin</I> option, or the <I>skin=newskin</I> config file | |
360 directive to use the skin in <CODE>*/Skin/newskin</CODE> directory.</P> | |
361 | |
1714 | 362 <P><B><A NAME=1.5>1.5. Subtitles and OSD</A></B></P> |
363 | |
364 <P>Yes, <B>MPlayer</B> also supports many kinds of subtitles. Currently | |
2210 | 365 8 kinds of subtitle can be used by the subreader code. To see what are |
366 these subtitle formats, see subreader.c, line ~30.</P> | |
367 | |
368 <P><B>MPlayer</B> introduces a new subtitle format called <B><I>MPsub</I></B>. | |
369 It was designed by me (Gabucino). Basically its main feature is being | |
370 <I>dynamically</I> time-based (although it has frame-based mode too). Example (from | |
371 <A HREF="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/tech/mpsub.sub">DOCS/tech/mpsub.sub</A>) : | |
372 </P> | |
373 | |
374 <P><CODE><I> | |
375 # first number : wait this much after previous subtitle disappeared<BR> | |
376 # second number : display the current subtitle for this many seconds<BR> | |
377 <BR> | |
378 15 3<BR> | |
379 A long, long time ago...<BR> | |
380 <BR> | |

383 <BR> | |
384 0 3<BR> | |
385 Naboo was under an attack.<BR> | |
386 </I></CODE></P> | |
387 | |
388 <P>So you see, the main goal was to <B>make subtitle editing/timing/joining/cutting easy</B>. And, | |
389 if you - say - get an SSA subtitle but it's badly timed/delayed to your | |
390 version of the movie, you simply do a <I>mplayer dummy.avi -sub source.ssa | |
391 -dumpmpsub</I> . A <CODE>dump.mpsub</CODE> file will be created in the | |
392 current directory, which will contain the source subtitle's text, but in | |
393 <B>MPsub</B> format. Then you can freely add/substract seconds to/from the | |
394 subtitle.</P> | |
1714 | 395 |
396 <P>Subtitles are displayed with a technique called <B>'OSD', On Screen Display</B>. | |
397 OSD is used to display current time, volume bar, seek bar etc.</P> | |
398 | |
399 <P><B>INSTALLING OSD and SUB</B></P> | |
400 | |
401 <P>You need an <B>MPlayer</B> font package to be able to use OSD/SUB feature. | |
402 There are many ways to get it: | |
403 <UL> | |
404 | |
405 <LI>download ready-to-use font packages from <B>MPlayer</B> site. | |
406 Note: currently available fonts are limited for iso 8859-1/2 support, | |
407 and there are a few special versions for korean, russian etc codepages. | |
408 Font should have appropriate font.desc file which maps unicode font | |
409 positions to the actual code page of the subtitles text. Other solution | |
410 is to have subtitles encoded in utf8 encoding and use -utf8 option | |
411 or just name the subtitles file <video_name>.utf and have it in the same | |
412 dir as the video file. Recoding from different codepages to utf8 could be | |
413 done by using konwert (debian) or iconv (RedHat) programs.<BR> | |

628 <P>MPlayer should work on Solaris 2.6 or newer.</P> | |
1612 | 629 |
1682 | 630 <P>AVI file playback works best on Solaris x86, because you have the |
1731 | 631 option to use the win32 codecs on the x86 platform, or can use MMX/MMX2/3DNow/etc |
632 instructions for MP3/DivX/DVD/whatever. On Solaris SPARC, | |
1682 | 633 you'll find quite a few AVI files with non working video and/or |
1731 | 634 audio playback, because the video/audio codecs using the Win32 DLLs |
1682 | 635 are not available. However, <B>DivX/OpenDivX</B> movies should work, |
636 when using libavcodec.</P> | |
1612 | 637 |
1731 | 638 <P>On <B>UltraSPARC</B>s, <B>MPlayer</B> takes advantage of their <B>VIS</B> |
1748 | 639 extensions (equivalent to MMX), currently only in <I>libmpeg2</I>, |
640 <I>libvo</I> and <I>libavcodec</I>, but not in mp3lib. You can watch a VOB file | |
641 on a 400Mhz CPU. You'll need <A | |
642 HREF="http://www.sun.com/sparc/vis/mediaLib.html">mLib</A> installed.</P> | |
1731 | 643 |
1682 | 644 <P>To build the package you will need GNU make (gmake, /opt/sfw/gmake), native |
645 Solaris make will not work. Typical error you get when building with solaris' | |
646 make instead of GNU make:</P> | |

1682 | 651 <P>On Solaris SPARC, you need the GNU C/C++ Compiler; it does not matter |
652 if GNU C/C++ compiler is configured with or without the GNU assembler.</P> | |
1612 | 653 |
1682 | 654 <P>On Solaris x86, you need the GNU assembler and the GNU C/C++ |
655 compiler, configured to use the GNU assembler! The mplayer code on | |
656 the x86 platform makes heavy use of MMX, SSE and 3DNOW! | |
657 instructions that cannot be compiled using Sun's assembler | |
658 <CODE>/usr/ccs/bin/as</CODE>.</P> | |
1612 | 659 |
1682 | 660 <P>The configure script tries to find out, which assembler program is |
661 used by your "gcc" command (in case the autodetection fails, use | |
662 the "--as=/whereever/you/have/installed/gnu-as" option to tell the | |
663 configure script where it can find GNU "as" on your system).</P> | |

1688 | 705 <P>On Solaris with an UltraSPARC CPU, you can get some extra speed by |
706 using the CPU's VIS instructions for certain time consuming operations. | |

1278 | |
1279 <P>First note: options -fs -vm and -zoom are just recommendations, not (yet) | |
1280 supported by all drivers. So it isn't a bug if it doesn't work. | |
1281 Only a few driver supports scaling/zooming, don't expect this from x11 or dga.</P> | |
1282 | |
1283 <P>OSD/sub flickering:<BR> | |
