[SOLVED]mplayer and mplayer-plugin

I have been trying to install mplayer and mplayer-plugin for several days from several mirrors in the USA. this is the error message I keep receiving:

Update your pacman database (pacman -Sy) or really force it to update (pacman -Syy). The packages you are trying to download are not the latest versions

Apple's trailer site crashes Firefox w/ mplayer plugin

Okay, this is beyond weird. Basically, I can go and watch a video in high quality or otherwise pretty much anywhere that isn't Apple's website... If I go there, Firefox just crashes without an error or explanation. This is pretty unfortunate since I view the bulk of my streaming video from there. I know some people had this issue before, but it effected all videos with them... This is just effecting this one site with me.
Running Firefox from the terminal is completely unhelpful as it provides no useful info.
I've got the latest versions of Firefox and mplayer plugin and am running KDEmod 4.2 with the qt-gtk-engine thing.
Anyone have a solution to this annoying little issue?
Thanks!

I have the same problem...

Anyone knows why or has a fix that doesn't imply using a different player?

Getting mplayer-plugin to work with opera 9

according to
http://my.opera.com/community/forums/to … ?id=131761
mplayer-plugin needs to be compiled with --enable-x so it works with opera9. i hope the maintainer updates the package in the repos!

i tried to compile mplayer-plugin from ABS, with --enable-x option, but i get this:

I downloaded the new operating system and now the Bluetooth in the car does not play my music. All the songs show the cloud with a red arrow pointing down. How do I download all of them again to my I phone please?

I downloaded the new operating system and now the Bluetooth in the car does not play my music. The music on the phone show the cloud and the red arrow pointing downwards. How do I download all the music again to my phone please?

I have an ITunes account. I got it when I got my IPOD. I've thought about upgrading, but I didn't see any reason to buy a newer IPOD because they all come with so much stuff I don't want/need. I don't have my current IPOD filled yet and I really don't need an IPOD Touch that has capabilities that my Droid already has. I don't need to be concerned with documents, mail, attaching to Facebook or playing games. I can do all that on my phone. I just want to maintain my music between 3 devices.
So now that I see it is not to my benefit to have this product---can you point me in the direction to cancel this? And how do I get my music back? Will it show up once I cancel my account?

Watching CNN and Yahoo videos with mplayer-plugin [SOLVED]

I had a hell of a time trying to view CNN videos (http://www.cnn.com) and Yahoo videos with mplayer-plugin (firefox) and didn't seem to find any solutions in a forum search.
The following worked for me:
To get it working at all, I had to edit /etc/mplayerplug-in.conf and add/edit the following options:
noembed=1
To get smooth video and sound without choppy playback, I had to add/edit the following options to /etc/mplayerplug-in.conf:
cachesize = 1024
These value for cachesize will obviously vary depending on your internet connection. But, with my DSL/broadband connection, the default cachesize of 512 was for some reason resulting in *very* choppy playback. The cachsize of 1024 fixed everything.
I can now view CNN and Yahoo videos with no problem.
Just thought I'd share if anyone is having similar problems.

Thanks

Reset and start all over again.
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

I updated my IPhone 3GS to the new 5.1 operating system and have since had a range of problems with not only my phone but also my IPad.

I updated my IPhone 3GS to the new 5.1 operating system and have since had a range of problems with not only my phone but also my IPad.
Programs (Safari, mail, messages) keep crashing, mail will not delete properly (some will keep popping into my inbox again for no reason!!!), slow, settings lock up etc. etc.
This only seemed to become an issue once I updated to ios 5.1 and funnily also affected my Ipad even though i hadn't updated the software yet. I have since updated the software on my ipad thinking it might help too but that only made things worse!! So I am not sure if it's an ICloud issue, but when i try to disable ICloud my devices lock up as well.
The battery life is also shocking!!
I have hard reset both devices, restored both devices, reset the setting and tried a whole host of other suggestions (like closing background programs) on this forum buit nothing works and i am tearing my hair out.
I looked in the phone and ipad log and there do seem to be low memory reports though i don't know why these are occuring now when they never have before??
I don't know if I can restore the old operating system (If I can please let me know how). The phone or ipad are not jailbroken.

but you should have a backup in itunes.
Every time you sync your iOS device iTunes creates a backup. go check if its there, iTunes Preferences >Devices. and there you should see if you have a backup, and in case from which date the backup is.
And ofcourse you can get your icloud data back by just logging in with your Appleid under icloud in settings on the iphone.
But anyway, if the iPhone works when you restor it as new: try adding your backup, and see if the issue comes back. And experiment with your backup and try to work out what is causing the issue, my guess is that its some app! Good Luck!

When I click Tools and then plugins and check whether my plugins are up to date or not, Firefox gives me a notice saying my Flash Player is an outdated version and must be replaced.

I am trying to do something that requires Flash Player, but even though it shows in my control panel, and it is the latest version, I keep seeing a notice that it is disabled, and it does not appear in the list of plugins, so I don't know how to enable it.
I have been installing the same version over and over again since yesterday, but when I go to check the plugin, a box appears saying it is disabled. When I go in Tools to the list oif plugins, it is not there! Very frustrating. edit

In Add-ons > Plugins, you must enable "Shockwave Flash (version)"; that is Adobe Flash. Click the "Enable" button next to it. The most current version is 10.3.183.10, which was released just a few days ago.
'''''"Installed Plug-ins''''' <br />
'''''Many but they are all disabled."'''''
Did you disable all of your plugins? Why?
You need to re-enable your plug-ins in Add-ons > Plugins, then check them to see if they are current and update as necessary.
You may need to update some plug-ins. Check your plug-ins and update as necessary:

There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash; an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only and a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox. On a Windows system, you should always update both individually.
#'''Using Firefox''', go to the following direct download link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
#When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
#Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
#*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
#*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
#*The installation is quick.

You have multiple old Java Console '''''extensions''''' that Java did not clean-up during updates.

The problem is with the new operating system and sending photo via email when used in my iPad. From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow.

From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow. This is solved by saving the email as a draft and opening the email again from mail.
Can you amend he system to allow emails to be sent from photo as previously.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

How to use mplayer-plugin?

How do you use mplayer-plugin in Firefox?
I always just have empty mplayer window or area, when I click "play" I just see "stopped".
I have exactly same effect on two different computers with Arch.
Do I need some special configuration for mplayer-plugin?
What is so special in this plugin that it can't work just by default?

It should just work after installing Mplayer and the plugin. If you launch Firefox from a terminal, are you seeing any errors?

Mplayer-plugin - anyone can use it?

Could you tell me how to use mplayer-plugin?
Or could you point me to any documentation?
This is example site with movies:
http://www.galaxydynamics.org/cosmic_cruise.html
When I click on avi this plugin just blocks firefox.

The keyboard controls aren't working for me while the video is embedded. If you use the 'noembed=1' option in ~/.mplayer/mplayerplug-in.conf, the video will launch in it's own window and the regular Mplayer controls will work.
As far as the cache goes, it looks like it starts over when the video is stopped then restarted. I'm not sure if this is editable or not.
What do you mean when you say it looks poopy?

The normal suggestions.
Close the app,off fully. Double tap the home screen then touch and hold any of the icons on the task bar until they jiggle, then close them all off by touching the - sign.
Then reboot the pad and try the spp again. If same issue, delete the app, then reload it. ( no charge). You may just have a bad copy. If continues, write to the developer, they may need to do an update. I have an older version of the same app and it works fine.
Since yours is the ad supported version, they are maing real sure you see the ad. Is it as simple as you need to click thru the ad to get to the game?

[solved] Mplayer-plugin downloads files

Whenever I play an avi with mplayer-plugin, it gets downloaded to my homedir. There's nothing wrong with playback, everything still works, but I wonder why the file is in my homedir. :S I also have to remove the file manually.
Could it have something to do with caching?
I'm also having problems with some streams. They say 'buffering' and then it just stops. When I look into my homedir, sure enough there's a file named playlist (because it's a stream) but it doesn't play.

That worked. Thanks.

My Lightroom 3 closed after trying to edit a photo and will not open again. Help please!

My Lightroom 3 closed after editing a photo and will not open again. It says Lightroom is not working and Windows is looking for a solution. I am in a bind and need my Lightroom opened asap. Please help!

In your operating system, go to the folder where your Lightroom catalog is stored and see if there is a file that ends with .lock
If so, delete it and then LR will open properly.
