<0> any1 got an idea y my mplayer won't display the video part of wmv files?
<1> try speaking English in here.
<1> the most obvious solution (rtfm comes to mind): you don't have the needed codec installed.
<0> I thought I was speaking english....sorry. But well. I was guessing this. It all started with firefox not playing embedded wmv objects. i installed the latest mplayer-plugin but it plays just about every media except wmvs
<1> azaaa: looks like you're comparing apples and oranges.
<1> azaaa: have you actually /tried/ playing these using mplayer or did you only use firefox?
<0> no i tried to play a downloaded file with mplayer too
<0> just now because it said on the mplayerhq.hu page that it did support the filetype
<1> errr.... "Have you tried it?" "No, I tried it too".
<0> I was saying no to ..."or did you only use firefox"
<2> azaaa: If mplayer can't deal with something it'll inform you of that fact. Please look at what it says.
<0> it did...it told me there was no codec and said the name of the dll...I downloaded the essentials-package from the website
<0> thanks though
<3> so you downloaded the essentials package and it still didn't work?
<3> If so, if you don't have any custom settings that you did by hand, wipe out the ~/.mplayer/ directory, it'll recreate a new codecs.conf with the codecs it knows about.
<3> (or i guess just erase .mplayer/codecs.conf ;)
<0> i'm about to find that out...its my 3rd week with linux and there are obstacles like the command for making a new directory
<3> mkdir, same as in DOS ;P
<0> i tried mdir...
<3> it isn't mkdir in dos?
<0> yea thats what I would have done....
<3> hm, google says you could use either "md" or "mkdir"
<4> RelDrgn: md
<0> no idea...
<0> ill find out
<0> mkdir works though
<4> RelDrgn: as for directories, that is one of the few places where DOS actually has a more compact syntax than *nix :P
<3> haha\
<0> well write an e-mail to the programmer with a formal complaint...
<0> after all
<0> its open source
<0> is *.* the syntax for all files contained in this older or does linux use something such as all or something?
<5> azaaa: You can use just * for all files. *.* would return anythign with a . in it while * will return everything.
<0> nevermind
<0> ok
<0> thx
<6> heya Sean
<7> hey Kristian
<8> Sean
<7> Eric

<7> had to walk home in the rain last night
<7> Nanuq: I dunno... what is the plan
<6> 42
<7> it's too wet for me to bike so whatever we do I'll have to take the bus
<6> I've started using the bus more myself recently as well. parking is a bitch downtown
<6> the waterfall here recently had me concentrate quite a lot more than usual while driving today
<7> I don't drive, heck I don't even have my license

<4> plus Im busy watching this sundays Hello! Morning
<9> K_F, I finally went into business for meself
<6> nice
<4> there shall be no distubing that!
<0> video for wmv still wont work. i have not made any changes...i downloaded the essentials and copied the dlls to /etc/local/lib/codecs/ and to /etc/local/lib/win32 but it still wont work
<9> prolly wrong wmv codecs
<10> How'd you decide on those directories as a place to put files?
<9> there are 9 diff versions of WMV, azaaa
<0> it said it in the readme file of the essentials pack of mplayer from the mplayersite
<4> wmv doesnt even work well in windows unless you use the latest WiMP
<9> oh, mwilson , good point ... those are wrong dirs as well
<4> wmv is a crap format :P
<0> 20060611
<0> is the version of the essentials pack
<9> azaaa, go re-read the instructions, those are the wrong directories
<0> mplayer is 1.0 pre 8
<0> ok
<0> thx
<9> USE THE VOWELS PEOPLE! AND SPELL!
<4> I dont think mplayer supports THX
<9> its THANKS!
<4> you need to be certified by george lucas to be THX compliant
<7> THX is a specification, not a technology :P
<11> lowercase helps too ;)
<2> mplayer will just wrap the win32 codec, no biggie :)
<4> Tamahome: are you nitpicking my nitpicking? that's soooooo meta
<9> Tamahome, perhaps #linux is now presented in THX suround sound?
<0> Okay Steakk...from now on I will spell out every word for you
<7> Jostein: heh
<0> its a nasty habit anyways.
<2> azaaa: Good, make a habit from it
<9> azaaa, not for me, its for the channel, and part of the channel rules.
