[Solved] xvba-video and mplayer
Good evening,
I just installed mplayer-vaapi and xvba-video. On the wiki page it says I should now run the following to play a video using xvba-video:
$ mplayer -vo vaapi:gl -va vaapi movie.avi
Now, I can add -vo vaapi:gl to ~/.mplayer/config, but can I also store -va vaapi somewhere, so I won't have to type it every time I want to start watching a movie?

Oh, great, I didn't know every option could go there!
I haven't tested it on all codecs yet, just watched an .avi with it with no issues. I'll try an .mp4 now
EDIT: Some quick tests with an .mp4 show no issues. I don't have any other formats on my laptop so I can't test those, sorry.

[solved]X11: MGA driver issues: video playback (mplayer) and 3D
Hello,
I am new to Arch, but I am not new to Linux. I installed Arch yesterday, before I was experimenting with it in VirtualBox and -to test the compatibility with my real hardware- I also tried the "Archie" live CD.
But there was one thing that the combination of VirtualBox and Archie could not test: the X Window System itself, because in Archie there was an older and VESA-only version and you could not upgrade it and VirtualBox was, well, virtual.
I have a Matrox card G550, so I installed the xf86-video-mga package. At first it did not work at all (blank screen), but when I switched the console from framebuffer to "normal" text mode it started working, but...
1) the 3D performance (glxgears) is about half of the FPS I got on my previous Linux system
2) when I tried to play video with mplayer, xine or vlc, there was blue screen instead of the picture. - I can send you a screenshot, but it's just a blue box where the picture should be
I discovered, that this bluescreen thing is "solved" with some arcane xorg.conf option I discovered with "man mga" - in fact, I tried each of the options in hope for this to fix:
Option "ShadowFB" "on"
but this thing slows the 3D performance even more, so the OpenGL version of Doom is not playable any more :(
Also the mplayer itself behaves differently than on my old Linux: When I resize the window or go fullscreen, on the old system it resized or fullscreened the entire picture and now just the window is bigger and the picture remains the same. I solved this with -vo sdl, but it seems the picture has poorer quality in this case
at all, I think something is missing in the xorg configuration, because the mplayer and 3D behavior suggest so.
here is my config:

I use 16bpp because 24bpp is slower...
thank you in advance,

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

[SOLVED] Faulty video output with mpv/mplayer, vaapi
Hi,
I have a HD6870 with the proprietary catalyst drivers installed, and the packages needed to enable vaapi. The problem I have is that every video application like mpv, mplayer or whatever refuses to give me correct video output with vaapi. mpv for example gives me these errors, depending on filetype:

mpv doesn't crash, it just falls back to software decoding and gives me a grey screen when it's not fullscreen, and when it's fullscreen it tears a lot and flashes random grey stripes everywhere - sound still works fine. Any ideas on what can be at fault here? The only video output that gives me an OK image without tearing or anything else is x11, but it's really slow.
vainfo gives me this:

Uninstall libva-xvba-driver and do

Now try vainfo again. Instead of "Splitted-Desktop Systems XvBA backend for VA-API - 0.8.0" it should say "AMD MMD 1.0" or something like that.
Thanks, now VA-API at least gives me an output - but the video just flashes in fullscreen. I think another thing to notice here is that the video only plays correctly (gives me an output), if I play it on monitor 1 (I use three monitors) - but I can't get rid of the screen flashing.
EDIT: Fullscreen only flashes when I use mpv, with smplayer (+mpv) it works ok - but it lags from time to time. mplayer-vaapi won't give me a smooth playback either with -vo and -va as vaapi, and the screen also flashes when I'm using it.
Any idea on what's wrong? Is it my use of three monitors? This is really, really annoying.

Upgraded libva,xvba-video, mplayer-vaapi: white rectangles in a movie
hi,
today I upgraded libva from repo, xvba-video from AUR and recompiled mplayer-vaapi. With mplayer option `-vo gl' movie plays fine, but with `-vo vaapi:gl' (that's why I have mplayer-vaapi) instead of subtitles there are white rectangles (see picture). What's wrong?
Thanks
here's mplayer output (msglevel=all=6, vo=vaapi:gl, ):

By the way, vaapi also makes subtitles look bad. They're very low quality in fullscreen, very blurred. With vaapi disabled they look fine. I remember I've had this problem before, but now I can't find my old config nor the solution. I think it had something to do with mplayer not scaling subtitles size when entering fullscreen... -
[SOLVED] .mkv audio issues after updating x264, ffmpeg and mplayer
Since I updated to x264-20100410-1, ffmpeg-22837-2 and mplayer-31029-1 the audio of random mkv files is having issues. While it seems to be in sync with the video it sounds as if it was slowed down.
The problem was solved after downgrading back to the previous versions with:
pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/x264-20100312-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz
/var/cache/pacman/pkg/ffmpeg-22511-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz
/var/cache/pacman/pkg/mplayer-30886-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz
I can't pinpoint the precise culprit using the binary packages and have no time right now to recompile them and track the problem individually, sorry.
Last edited by dresb (2011-02-07 16:30:03)I reinstalled the new versions and tried again but the problem seems to be independent of the -vo (or -ao) drv. I even tried null as -vo but the sound is still distorted. The video plays fine.

My Many Irritations (story) and a New Solved Problem (video playback)
This topic is just going to ramble through the many things that have irritated me about my iPod since the purchase only three weeks ago. Don't get me wrong, though, I still love the thing. For the most serious problems, check out Numbers 3 and 11.
Lets see... where to begin...
I originally had no interest in the iPod, but some time after the unveiling of the fifth generation's new capabilities a friend of mine started talking about it quite a lot. And so, some time in early November, my hype for the video iPod had grown greatly. I downloaded Videora iPod converter and started converting music videos like crazy.
By the time December rolled in I had successfully converted almost all of my 150 or so music videos and imported them into iTunes. With Christmas coming up I was wondering if I should just ask for it as a gift, but impatience set in and I bought it on the fifth of December, and have greatly enjoyed it since.
Sounds peachy, but there's a fair bit that I left out.
Number 1. I love viewing movie trailers on Apple's website. But with the recent update to the quicktime software, it was required to get the updated version. With that came iTunes, a program that was at the time unwanted and an irratation.
Number 2. Videora iPod Converter has it's fair share of bugs. While I successfully converted many a video with it, I found it would 100% of the time fail to convert files of the .wmv format (Windows Media). As well, I would later find a more serious problem.
Number 3. On the first day of using the iPod I had a serious error. I had been watching videos just fine all day, and the iPod was working perfectly. I then chose a video to play and inexplicably the iPod froze. These are the symptoms: black screen, backlight on, no responce from controls.
Tired, as it was the end of the day, I was unwilling to go to the computer room and attempt to find a solution online. And so, I gambled that the backlight would drain the battery and hoped that upon a recharge, everything would be fine. As the backlight was illuminating my bedroom, I put the iPod in it's sleeve to dim it a bit and went to sleep.
As you can imagine, this was kind of scary. I was afraid that I had bricked my iPod on it's first day.
In the morning, the battery had died and I was able to recharge it by syncing it with my computer. After charging, I tried a few videos and then tried the offending video. Again it froze, but this time I was confident that the backlight would drain the battery and it would be fine.
I then looked at the folder wherin I had saved the converted video. Among all my other videos was the offending one. I played it in Quicktime 7, and everything was fine until I realized the length of the video was double what it should be. After what should be the end of the music video came two minutes of a white screen. The file size was also abnormally large, compared to the other videos.
It turns out that Videora iPod Converter can sometimes produce corrupt files, and these corrupt files will not be detected by iTunes as corrupt. Such files can be trasferred to iTunes and to your iPod without any error or problem, but will lock up your iPod when played. Now, when converting batches of videos with Videora, I scan the file-sizes to see if any are abnormally large; after all, using the same settings on a batch of similar in length videos should produce files of similar size.
It occurs to me now that the method for resetting the iPod might have worked as an alternative to draining the battery.
Number 4. I should mention that the battery life on this thing was (for me) unexpectedly low when playing videos. I'm not saying that mine is defective or anything, but I just found that the battery runs down pretty quick when playing videos; quicker than I had thought it might. Not a big problem, though.
Number 5. In a search to find something to convert my .wmv videos to an iPod compatible format I found the ImToo converter. It works quite well, but the trial version is limited to videos of five minutes or less in length. I'm considering paying for the full version, but if someone knows of another reliable .wmv converter, I'd be glad to try that. For now, ImToo is good enough as most music videos are less than five minutes long, but I do have some other videos in the .wmv format that I would like to transcode.
Number 6. In mid December I went out of town for three days. Of course, I brought along my new favorite portable media player. Not surprisingly, the battery soon ran low and I was without my computer to recharge it. So I went out to a store and bought Apple's official USB Power Adapter. I thought it was kind of expensive, especially considering that they used to be BUNDLED with the older iPod models, but I was happy to find I would now be able to charge my iPod. Wrong. Something that was not made obvious to me by the package description (if it is even mentioned there) is that the darn thing needs the USB cable that came with the iPod. It does not come with one, and so if all you have is a wall socket, the USB Power Adapter, and an iPod, you're screwed. Unless it's the iPod shuffle, which apparantly is the only thing that works with the USB Power Adapter out of the box. As far as portability goes, I feel this hurts. I would have liked to keep my USB cable attached to my computer. After all, it is a pain to get to the back of my computer and keep plugging it in or unplugging it.
Number 7. I'm rather irritated with certain aspects of the iPod's interface considering music videos and regular song files. I spent a good amount of time adding artist and album tags to all of my music videos. These tags make sorting the videos in iTunes much easier.
First, the iPod's interface does not allow for the search of videos through album tags, but does through artist tags.
Second, going to Music>Albums> gives a long, cluttered list of Albums because of all of my music videos and one-hit songs that belong to only one album each.
I suppose there is a workaround.
Number 8. I recently bought another accessory for my iPod. The LOGiiX Amplified Fold-Up Speakers. A very attractive and portable set of speakers for the iPod. It comes with a little stand that holds the iPod in place, and works off of either 4 AAA Batteries or AC Power. Yet again, this is a product that DOES NOT come with the power adapter. Now, I think I MAY have one somewhere in my house... perhaps the power adapter that CAME WITH my SONY MD that is being replaced with the iPod will work....
Oh, and that little clip-on stand I mentioned? I expect it to be lost soon because when I fold up my portable speakers there is no way to clip the stand onto the outside of the speakers.
Now, as far as portability goes, I have to carry with me (at the most) seven things: the iPod, the headphones, the USB connector, the USB power adapter, the fold-up speakers, the little stand, and an AC power adapter.
Number 9. Minor irritation in my control of the clickwheel. After this long, I still accidentally select the wrong thing, and often take a fair time to get the highlight where I want. Meh, this one I'll figure out eventually.
Number 10. There was something irritating about entirely forgetting my login for my Apple ID and having to create this brand new one for today.
Number 11. Just today, I have come across a problem with the video not playing. I watched one video just fine, went to the Videos>Movies> tab and, as mentioned above, accidentally highlighted a video I did not wish to play and hit the Select button. Normally when this happens I wait until the video has loaded - when the screen goes black and the white Play symbol appears in the top left. But this time, I immediately hit the Menu button to go back to the Movies tab. The video's loading was interrupted and I went back to the Movies tab.
Now, when I select and play ANY video, after a noticable but short wait the screen goes black, another noticably longer wait and the play symbol appears, and then a black screen for a few seconds and the iPod skips ahead to the next video, which behaves in the exact same way.
I have powered down the iPod using the method of holding the pause button, but the problem persits.
My music videos can be played as songs by finding them under the Music tab, but no videos play as videos.
I am not at my home computer, and so running iPod updater or just trying to sync is not an option right now.
I will soon try to reset the iPod using the method described on Apple's support website.
EDIT Okay, the reset did the trick. Videos are playing fine now. I still want to share my iPod story, so I'll leave this here, but have changed it from being a question. Below are the instructions I followed for the reset.
RESETTING THE IPOD
1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
2. Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.Nice Rant session:
"It turns out that Videora iPod Converter can sometimes produce corrupt files, and these corrupt files will not be detected by iTunes as corrupt. Such files can be trasferred to iTunes and to your iPod without any error or problem, but will lock up your iPod when played. Now, when converting batches of videos with Videora, I scan the file-sizes to see if any are abnormally large; after all, using the same settings on a batch of similar in length videos should produce files of similar size."
What did you expect for freeware? Nice effort but because it's free everyone thinks it's a gem. It's not. This web site has been flooded with questions that should be directed at the authors website. Video conversion and editing is not for the beginner. Sounds to me that you have a bunch of badly converted videos that are causing a lot of problems. Videora problems:
Known Bugs
Audio/Video sync
Problem - Output files can be out-of-sync. While no set pattern has been established, it seems to be more frequent with input files of 23.976 fps, non-DVD rips, and WMV/MPG filetypes.
Workaround solutions - Try the custom option '-async 1'. If the disconnect gradually increases over time, setting 29.97 fps sometimes gets rid of the problem regardless of the input fps. You can also use AviSynth to assume the FPS and have the audio sync to that. If it's a sudden disconnect, check your VOB Cell settings in DVD Decrypter settings per this thread. Otherwise, test with an AviSynth script per the DaProphecy's method in the FAQ. For non-DVD files, PSPVideo 9 may be a good short-term solution until the converter stabilizes some more or try something like AviDemux.
Audio track not getting picked up
Problem - The IFO stream rip is fine, but the converted file has no sound. The debug info showed to audio track getting picked up. The most obvious case with this is the Madagascar DVD.
Workaround solution ideas - Test with an AviSynth script per the DaProphecy's method in the FAQ (untested). Use a different DVD ripper.
Program doesn't start (.NET issue?)
Problem - Converter errors upon starting with an extended dump.
Solution ideas - Update .NET framework (in all languages you're using!) to most recent solution. Clean out registry. Neither of these have worked for some.
Progress meter incorrect
Problem - During transcodes, the progress meter can be incorrect; thus, transcoding continues after the meter hits 100% and time remaining is zero. People have been seeing this more often with VOB files and/or the H.264 codec.
Workaround - Figure out the length of your movie in seconds and compare that to the 'Processed' field. A 2-hour movie will not finish until Processed hits 7200 seconds.
Artifacts (bad video quality) in darker scenes
Problem - Scenes with darker background colors tend to have more artifacts (blocked video). It's much more obvious on the iPod, so this may be an Apple firmware problem.
Workaround ideas - Use a VBR setting (FQ->VBR, two-pass A->VBR) to improve video quality. The custom option '-mbd 2' might help.
Desktop icon
Problem - When installing, the desktop icon does not appear/stick when using lower color setups.
Workarounds - Select a 32-bit color scheme in your desktop settings, or change the icon in the shortcut.
Profile changes don't always stick
Problem - If you make a change to a profile, click apply, and immediately trancdoe with that profile, the transcode might not use the new settings.
Workarounds - Once you click apply, swtich to another profile and back again to make sure the change is still there. If that doesn't work, create a new profile.
Can only install/use with admin rights
Problem - There have been reports of non-admin users not being able to use the converter.
Workarounds - Separate installs or give all users admin rights.
Who in their right mind would use a program that has these many critical bugs to convert files for the IPOD. People who are cheap, kids with no money and people who are just plain gullably.
A little research and downloading a trial from this site would have solved your video problems early on;
http://www.divmm.com/
The 5th Gen IPOD was designed to support video content that was purchased on the ITunes web site. For everything else, you are on your own. -

[SOLVED] streaming videos directly to mplayer?
basically what i want to do is watching online videos from the shell via mplayer and elinks w/o downloading them, but not to be limited to youtube, so youtube-viewer is not an option. problem is that mplayer doesn't seem to do the job. some claim you only have to pass an url as an arg for it and that's it.

but that's not it, alas. i passed in different cache sizes as well, but that didn't help either. the funny thing is that youtube-viewer uses mplayer as well and worked perfectly out of the box. i looked at the script and mostly additional args are there as extras.

return $smplayer; # Windows MPlayer
else {

return -x $mplayer_path ? $mplayer_path : q{mplayer} # *NIX MPlayer
anyone had this issue before? i really could use some ideas. thanks in advance

Ratpoison and mplayer [SOLVED]
Hello,
I am trying to watch some videos with mplayer, my wm of choice is ratpoison.
My issue is that when I launch
mplayer -fs /path/to/file
from urxvt the window with the playback pops up as a very small window, not at all fullscreen as I requested.
What could I be doing wrong here? Is there something about ratpoison I should change or is it just something that has to do with mplayer?
/David
Last edited by dlind (2010-07-31 17:20:28)There are two ways to go about this.
First, you can add
unmanage MPlayer
to your ~/.ratpoisonrc. This will leave mplayer completely unmanaged by ratpoison, meaning it won't respond to keyboard input and it can only be killed by typing 'killall mplayer' into the ratpoison exec bar.
A better way is to use the tmpwm command, which switches to another wm temporarily for all windows, and then transfers control back to ratpoison when that window manager is killed. For example, to use openbox temporarily just execute or create a bind for
ratpoison -c "tmpwm openbox"
A clever trick is to bind the same key combo to start openbox within ratpoison as well as to kill openbox within openbox(or whichever other wm you want to use)
EDIT: I think tmpwm works best with the git pull of ratpoison, which I use. I'm not sure how well it works in the standard repo version.
EDIT #2: Here's another way, which streamlines the whole process. You can launch your videos like this.
ratpoison -c "tmpwm openbox" & mplayer -fs path/to/video && killall openbox
It will automatically send you back to ratpoison when you exit mplayer, so you won't even have to think about the fact that you're in another window manager. You could make a simple bash function or script for that as well so you don't have to type it every time.

[SOLVED] OpenGL video playback slow on radeonhd
Hi,
My video playback is very slow when using OpenGL output, both in VLC and mplayer. When using the x11 driver, the playback is normal in VLC, but in mplayer there is a problem with the aspect: the picture does not scale.
I have a Radeon mobility X1600 and an up to date Arch64. glxinfo report direct rendering, and glxgears gives about 215 FPS at the default window size (if I make it smaller, then it boosts to about 700). I don't use fglrx, since I can't put the laptop in suspend to ram mode with it - rather, I can but then I can't wake it up
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Eduardo
Last edited by ezacaria (2008-12-22 13:45:49)Hi,
Thanks for the link!
I realized that the offical Xorg ati driver also has support for my card. I just switched to it, and the mplayer problems are solved Incidentally, the glxgears count went up to about 1450. The suspend to ram also works, so I think I'll stick to this driver.
Thanks again!

Downgrading to mplayer-29776-1 solved the problem. So it must be a bug for mplayer-30286-1.I don't think it's a bug of ffmpeg, because I find that ffplay is working well on the rmvb file, while mplayer can't.
I can give you some debug info here for mplayer:

Does the video adapter output both S-Video and Composite simultaneously?
I have a multi-zone receiver which converts S-Video to component for the main zone and passes S-Video signals through to zone 2 but does not convert them to composite which is how that zone is set up. I solved a similar problem with my DVD player by connecting both the component output and composite output of the DVD player to the receiver allowing high quality viewing in the lounge room and passable viewing in the bedroom.
I realise the quality from the adapter is questionable particularly for composite but I'm still interested if both S-Video and composite signals are output from the MBP 17" via the adapter simultanesouly.
Thanks,
Max.I have a follow-up question which may help answer the original question. Does the MBP have to detect the external display when connected via S-Video/Composite in the same way that it has to when connected via DVI? My Dell notebook had so much trouble detecting composite and S-Video connections that eventually I gave up so I'm a little "once bitten twice shy" on this. If the MBP doesn't attempt to detect the external display via S-Video or composite then it must output both S-Video and Composite signals continuously (which would be great).
Thanks,
Max.
