7 Requirements:
|
|
8 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
9 - Siemens DVB-S card or compatible (technotrend,galaxis,hauppage etc)
|
|
10 see www.linuxtv.org for details and download latest driver there.
|
|
11 - MPlayer-CVS, ffmpeg-libavcodec. divx4linux is recommended for speed & pp.
|
|
12 - Fast CPU - at least for software decoding (divx...)

|
18 1. Download ffmpeg-CVS and copy libavcodec to mplayer (see DOC for details)
|
1960
|
19 Move this line from #ifdef CONFIG_ENCODERS .. #endif section to outside
|
|
20 (after the #endif line) at libavcodec/utils.c:361 :
|
1936
|
21 register_avcodec(&mpeg1video_encoder);
|
3297
|
22
|
|
23 2. Compile mplayer:
|
|
24 ./configure should detect it. If didn't, force with ./configure --enable-dvb
|
|
25 If you have ost headers at non-standard path, set it with:
|
2109
|
26 --with-extraincdir=<your DVB source dir>/ost/include
|
|
27 make
|
|
28 make install

31 How to use?
|
|
32 ~~~~~~~~~~~
|
1936
|
33 To play standard mpeg 1/2 files: (hardware decoding)
|
|
34
|
3297
|
35 mplayer -ao mpegpes -vo mpegpes -vc mpegpes file.mpg|vob
|
1936
|
36
|
|
37 To play non-standard mpeg files: (software decoding)
|
|
38
|
3297
|
39 mplayer -ao mpegpes -vo mpegpes file.mpg|vob
|
1936
|
40
|
|
41 To play divx files:
|
|
42
|
|
43 mplayer -vo mpegpes -vc ffdivx|odivx file.avi|asf
|
|
44
|
1960
|
45 To play non-25fps movies, or with slow CPU, add option: -framedrop
|
1936
|
46
|
1960
|
47 Image size:
|
|
48 ~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
49 DVB card allows only 2 vertical resolutions: 288 and 576.
|
|
50 If your video height differs, you have to clip it or extend by adding
|
|
51 black bands. It's done by mplayer, just specify image size using the
|
|
52 -x and -y options. You must use either -y 288 or -y 576.
|
|
53
|
1963
|
54 To force pan&scan (16:9 at 4:3 TV), add options: -x 352 -y 288

64 Future plans/TODO:
|
|
65 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
66
|
|
67 - display OSD and subtitles using DVB card's OSD feature
|
|
68 - better (more fluent) playback of non-25fps movies
|
|
69 - more speed optimizations
|
|
70 - YUY2 support (for win32 codecs, like Indeo5 and WMV 7/8)
|
|
71 - realtime transcoding between mpeg2 <-> mpeg4 (partial decompression)
|
