6 1. SIGILL (signal 4) in draw_frame, on P3 (mostly with 2.2.x kernels):
|
668
|
7 Problem: movups is crashing in libvo/fastmemcpy.h
|
|
8 Workaround: ./configure --disable-fastmemcpy
|
684
|
9 SOLVED: disabled SSE code in fastmemcpy.h ;(
|
668

10
|
|
11 2. No image (black image) in RGB 16bpp (x11,dga,fbdev,svga) playing
|
675
|
12 MPEG files on SMP machine:
|
668
|
13 Problem: bug(?) in MMX YV12->RGB16 converter code
|
|
14 Workaround: ./configure --disable-mmx
|
797
|
15 SOLVED: bug of gcc-2.96 - you should use 2.95.2 or 2.95.3
|
668
|
16
|
817
|
17 3. SIGILL (signal 4) or other fault at loading l3codeca.acm:
|
684
|
18 Problem: shared libs are loaded to 0x00xxxxxx instead of 0x40xxxxxx
|
668
|
19 Workaround: mplayer -afm 1 ...
|
684
|
20 SOLVED: you are using some security kernel patch, like OpenWall etc.
|
668
|
21
|
817
|
22 4. General SIGILL (signal 4):
|
|
23 Problem: you compiled and run mplayer in different machines
|
|
24 (for example compiled on P3 and runinng on celeron)
|
|
25 Solution: compile MPlayer on machine where you will use it
|
|
26 Workaround: ./configure --disable-sse etc. options
|
668
|
27
|
|
28 Various A-V sync and other audio problems:
|
|
29 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
30 General audio delay or jerky sound (exists with all or many files):
|
|
31 - bad select() in audio driver (including ALSA's OSS emulation)
|
|
32 Workaround: ./configure --disable-select
|
797
|
33 SOLVED: using ioctls instead of select in the new audio code
|
668
|
34 - audio buffer problems
|
|
35 Workaround: mplayer -abs option
|
797
|
36 SOLVED: using ioctls in the new audio code
|
668
|
37 - slow machine (cpu or vga)
|
675
|
38 try with -vo null, if it plays well, then you have slow VGA card/driver:
|
668
|
39 Workaround: buy a faster card or read DOCS/VIDEOCARDS about how to speed up
|
817
|
40 SOLVED: try -framedrop (maybe -hardframedrop)
|
668
|
41
|
817
|
42 Audio delay/de-sync specific to one or a few files:
|
|
43 - bad file (please upload the file, so we can check & fix)
|
|
44 Workaround: -ni or -bps option (for non-interlaved or bad files)
|
|
45 -mc 0 (required for files with VBR audio)
|
786
|
46 -delay option or +/- keys at runtime to adjust delay
|
675
|
47 - your soundcard doesn't support 48Khz playback
|
797
|
48 Workaround: buy a better soundcard...
|
817
|
49 or try to decrease fps by 10% (use -fps 27 for a 30fps movie)
|
668
|
50
|
|
51 After many > or ^ (fast forward) audio vs. video is going out of sync (ASF/AVI)
|
|
52 - bug in mplayer code (a-v sync probs after seek... not really bug but
|
|
53 my avi/asf seeking code is not perfect yet)
|
893
|
54 Workaround: -bps
|
668
|
55
|
|
56 Signal 11 in decode_audio:
|
|
57 - mp3lib doesn't handle (yet) well bad/broken audio streams
|
|
58 Workaround: -afm 4
|
797
|
59 SOLVED: fixed mp3lib, it must be rock solid now!
|
668
|
60 - if it's still bad, try with -nosound [and report the bug, see BUGREPORTS]
|
|
61
|
|
62 No sound at all:
|
675
|
63 - your file uses an unsupported codec
|
745
|
64 Workaround: read DOCS/CODECS, and help us adding support for it
|
668
|
65
|
|
66 Video-out problems:
|
|
67 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
68 First note: options -fs -vm and -zoom are just recommendations, not (yet)
|
|
69 supported by all drivers. So it isn't a bug if it doesn't work.
|
817
|
70 Only a few driver supports scaling/zooming, don't expect this from x11 or dga.
