diff --git a/multimedia/mplayer/README b/multimedia/mplayer/README new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000..b261eef7b3833 --- /dev/null +++ b/multimedia/mplayer/README @@ -0,0 +1,30 @@ +MPlayer plays most MPEG, VOB, AVI, OGG/OGM, VIVO, ASF/WMA/WMV, QT/MOV/MP4, +FLI, RM, NuppelVideo, YUV4MPEG, FILM, RoQ, PVA files, supported by many +native, XAnim, and Win32 DLL codecs. You can watch VideoCD, SVCD, DVD, 3ivx, +DivX 3/4/5 and even WMV movies, too (without the avifile library). + +The required codecs are available from the MPlayer site, and we have a +SlackBuild script for them as well. If you have already installed the +codecs on your own, then make sure the CODECSDIR variable in the script +is defined correctly (or pass the correct value on the command line when +running the SlackBuild script). + +This script is written to install the default "Blue" theme for MPlayer, and +it will print an error (but allow you to continue) if you don't have the +theme tarball in the build directory. You can obtain the Blue theme here: + http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/skins/Blue-1.7.tar.bz2 +If you want to install some other theme, the script is written to support +that, but other themes have not been tested with it. The best option for +using additional themes/skins is to install them in $HOME/.mplayer by +following the directions on the MPlayer homepage. + +You can speed-up decoding and encoding by passing RUNTIME_CPU=no to the build +script. + +MPlayer supports DVD-Menu-Navigation; for it to work as expected, you will +need the run the script with DVDNAV=yes and have the external libdvdnav +package installed. This will disable MPlayer's internal libdvdread and +rely on the libdvdread version installed by libdvdnav. Only with this option +set will you be able to navigate through the menus. Additionally, you need +to either write "mouse-movements=yes" into your mplayer.conf or start mplayer +as "mplayer dvdnav:// -mouse-movements" |
