1 Known bugs: | |
2 ~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
3 | |
4 Special system/cpu-specific bugs/problems: | |
5 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
6 1. SIGILL (signal 4) in draw_frame, on P3 (mostly 2.2.x kernels): | |
7 Problem: movups is crashing in libvo/fastmemcpy.h | |
8 Workaround: ./configure --disable-fastmemcpy | |
9 | |
10 2. No image (black image) in RGB 16bpp (x11,dga,fbdev,svga) playing | |
11 MPEG files on SMP machine: | |
12 Problem: bug(?) in MMX YV12->RGB16 converter code | |
13 Workaround: ./configure --disable-mmx | |
14 | |
15 3. SIGILL or other fault at loading l3codeca.acm: | |
16 Problem: shared libs are loaded to 0x00100000 instead of 0x40000000 | |
17 Workaround: mplayer -afm 1 ... | |
18 | |
19 Please contact me if you experienced any of the above problems. We need | |
20 people to test fixes and send us as many system details information as | |
21 possible (kernel+libc+gcc+binutils version, test results, /proc/cpuinfo etc) | |
22 because they are system-dependent problems and aren't reproducable here. | |
23 Please tell me if you can fix them or you are only user. | |
24 Unfortunately we can't reproduce these here, so it's very hard to fix. | |
25 | |
26 Various A-V sync and other audio problems: | |
27 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
28 General audio delay or jerky sound (exists with all or many files): | |
29 - bad select() in audio driver (including ALSA's OSS emulation) | |
30 Workaround: ./configure --disable-select | |
31 - audio buffer problems | |
32 Workaround: mplayer -abs option | |
33 - slow machine (cpu or vga) | |
34 try with -vo null, if it plays well, then you has slow VGA card/driver: | |
35 Workaround: buy a faster card or read DOCS/VIDEOCARDS about how to speed up | |
36 | |
37 Audio delay specific to one or a few files: | |
38 - bad file (pleae upload the file, so we can check & fix) | |
39 Workaround: -ni and/or -bps options | |
40 -delay option or +/- keys at runtime to adjuts delay | |
41 - your soundcard doesn't support 48khz playback | |
42 Workaround: buy a better soundcard... | |
43 - file has VBR mp3 audio | |
44 Workaround: mplayer -mc 0 | |
45 | |
46 After many > or ^ (fast forward) audio vs. video is going out of sync (ASF/AVI) | |
47 - bug in mplayer code (a-v sync probs after seek... not really bug but | |
48 my avi/asf seeking code is not perfect yet) | |
49 | |
50 Signal 11 in decode_audio: | |
51 - mp3lib doesn't handle (yet) well bad/broken audio streams | |
52 Workaround: -afm 4 | |
53 - if it's still bad, try with -nosound [and report the bug, see BUGREPORTS] | |
54 | |
55 No sound at all: | |
56 - your file uses a not supported codec | |
57 Workaround: read DOCS/CODECS, and help us adding support for it | |
58 | |
59 Video-out problems: | |
60 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
61 First note: options -fs -vm and -zoom are just recommendations, not (yet) | |
62 supported by all drivers. So it isn't a bug if it doesn't work. | |
63 Only a few driver supports scaling/zooming, don't except this from x11 or dga. | |
64 | |
