111 <P><B>MPlayer</B> is a movie player for LINUX (runs on many other Unices, and
|
|
112 <B>non-x86</B> CPUs, see <A HREF="#6">section 6</A>). It plays most MPEG, AVI
|
|
113 and ASF files, supported by many native and Win32 DLL codecs. You can watch
|
|
114 <B>VideoCD</B>, <B>SVCD</B>, <B>DVD</B> and even <B>DivX</B> movies too. The
|
|
115 another big feature of mplayer is the wide range of supported output drivers.
|
|
116 It works with X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev, AAlib, but you can use SDL
|
|
117 (and this way all drivers of SDL) and some lowlevel card-specific drivers (for
|
|
118 Matrox) too! Most of them supports software or hardware scaling, so you can
|
|
119 enjoy movies in fullscreen. And what about the nice big antialiased shaded
|
|
120 subtitles (7 supported types!!!) with hungarian, english, cyrillic, czech,
|
|
121 korean fonts, and OSD?</P>

|
|
124
|
1682
|
125 <P>I didn't write any codecs, just some players. I spent
|
|
126 a lot of time finding the best way to parse bad damaged input files
|
|
127 (both MPEG and AVI) and to do perfect A-V sync with seeking ability.
|
|
128 My player is rock solid playing damaged MPEG files (useful for some VCDs),
|
|
129 and it plays bad AVI files which are unplayable with the famous
|
|
130 windows media player. Even AVI files without index chunk are playable, and
|
|
131 you can rebuild their indexes with the -idx option, thus enabling seeking!
|
|
132 As you see, stability and quality are the most important things for me,
|
|
133 but the speed is also amazing.</P>

137 <P>This began a year ago...
|
|
138 I've tried lots of players under linux (mtv,xmps,dvdview,livid/oms,VideoLAN,
|
|
139 xine,xanim,avifile,xmmp) but they all have some problem. Mostly with special
|
|
140 files or with audio/video sync. Most of them is unable to play both MPEG1,
|
|
141 MPEG2 and AVI (DivX) files. Many players have image quality or speed problems
|
|
142 too. So I've decided to write/modify one...</P>

145 <LI><B>mpg12play v0.1-v0.3:</B><BR>
|
1612
|
146 The first try, hacked together in a half hour!
|
|
147 I've used libmpeg3 from www.heroinewarrior.com up to the version 0.3,
|
|
148 but there were image quality and speed problems with it.
|
1682
|
149 <LI><B>mpg12play v0.5-v0.87:</B><BR>
|
1612
|
150 Mpeg codec replaced with DVDview by Dirk Farin, it was a great stuff,
|
|
151 but it was slow and was written in C++ (I hate C++!!!)
|
1682
|
152 <LI><B>mpg12play v0.9-v0.95pre5:</B><BR>
|
|
153 Mpeg codec was libmpeg2 (mpeg2dec) by Aaron Holtzman & Michel Lespinasse.
|
1612
|
154 It's great, optimized very fast C code with perfect image quality and
|
|
155 100% MPEG standard conformance.
|
1682
|
156 <LI><B>MPlayer v0.3-v0.9:</B><BR>
|
1612
|
157 It was a pack of two programs: mpg12playv0.95pre6 and my new simple AVI
|
|
158 player 'avip' based on avifile's Win32 DLL loader.
|
1682
|
159 <LI><B>MPlayer v0.10:</B><BR>
|
1612

160 The MPEG and AVI player in a single binary!

161 <LI><B>MPlayer v0.11:</B><BR>
|
1612
|
162 Some new developers joined and from 0.11 the mplayer project is a team-work!
|
|
163 Added .ASF file support, and OpenDivX (see www.projectmayo.com) en/decoding.
|
1682
|
164 <LI><B>MPlayer v0.17 "The IdegCounter"</B><BR>
|
1612
|
165 The release version of the 0.11pre after 4 months of heavy development!
|
|
166 Try it, and be amazed! Thousands of new features added... and of course
|
|
167 old code was improved too, bugs removed etc.

168 <LI><B>MPlayer 0.18 "The BugCounter"</B><BR>
|
1612
|
169 2 months since 0.17 and here's a new release.. Completed ASF support,

170 more subtitle formats, introduced libao (similar to libvo but to audio),

171 even more stable than ever, and so on. It's a MUST !

|

182 <B>NEVER</B> use 2.96 or 3.x.x !!! They generate faulty code.</LI>

192 <UL>
|

193 <LI>If you plan to use <B>MPlayer</B> on x86 architecture, you possibly want to use
|
1682
|
194 Win32 codecs. Download and unzip w32codecs.zip to /usr/lib/win32 .
|
|
195 Note: the avifile project has similar codecs package, but it differs
|
1731
|
196 from ours, so if you want to use all supported codecs, then use
|
1703

197 our package! However, you can use our codecs package with avifile.</LI>

|
1682
|
200 section in order to gain big speedup. It is important to do these steps
|
1748

201 <I>before</I> compiling <B>MPlayer</B>, otherwise no Matrox-specific support will be

1703

202 built.</LI>

205 <A HREF="codecs.html#2.1.2.1">2.1.2.1</A> section before compiling.
|
|
206 This codec can play <B>DivX</B> movies much faster than the Win32 DLL, and

207 <B>ffmpeg</B>. It's closed-source, and only an x86 version is available.</LI>

210 <A HREF="codecs.html#2.1.2.2">2.1.2.2</A> section before compiling.
|

211 You'll need this to gain <B>DivX</B> playing on non-x86 machines, or want to

212 gain bigger speed than the Win32 codec does.</LI>
|
1703

213

1612

227
|
1682
|
228 <P>Though not mandatory, the fonts should be installed in order to gain

1682

243 <P>I'm not a GUI programmer. I hate GUIs, I like the pure black 80x25 console.
|
|
244 So the player has only keyboard control from the controlling console/xterm now.
|
|
245 There is a GUI development for the player, coordinated by Pontscho/Fresh!
|
|
246 It's still under development, but it will be merged and released real soon.

258 <P><B>INSTALLING OSD and SUB</B></P>
|
|
259
|
|
260 <P>You need an <B>MPlayer</B> font package to be able to use OSD/SUB feature.
|
|
261 There are many ways to get it:
|
|
262 <UL>
|
|
263
|
|
264 <LI>use the font generator tool at TOOLS/subfont-c
|
|
265 It's a complete tool to convert from TTF/Type1/etc font to mplayer font pkg.
|
|
266 (read TOOLS/subfont-c/README for details)
|
|
267
|
|
268 <LI>use the font generator GIMP plugin at TOOLS/subfont-GIMP
|
|
269 (note: you must have HSI RAW plugin too, see URL below)
|
|
270
|
|
271 <LI>download ready-to-use font packages from <B>MPlayer</B> site.
|
|
272 Note: currently available fonts are limited for iso 8859-1/2 support,
|
|
273 and there are a few special versions for korean, russian etc codepages.
|
|
274 You better build fonts yourself with the tool mentioned above.
|
|
275 Font should have appropriate font.desc file which maps unicode font
|
|
276 positions to the actual code page of the subtitles text. Other solution
|
|
277 is to have subtitles encoded in utf8 encoding and use -utf8 option
|
|
278 or just name the subtitles file <video_name>.utf and have it in the same
|
|
279 dir as the video file. Recoding from different codepages to utf8 could be
|
|
280 done by using konwert (debian) or iconv (RedHat) programs.<BR>
