Hi. I'm developing a mplayer frontend (smplayer). I read that now mplayer on windows can play VCDs (vcd://...) so I tested it this morning with a recent mplayer build. It works, but there are some differences compared to the linux version. This is what mplayer under linux (MPlayer dev-SVN-r25184-3.3.4) says in the console output when playing a vcd: Playing vcd://2. ID_VCD_START_TRACK=1 ID_VCD_END_TRACK=3 track 01: adr=1 ctrl=6 format=2 00:02:00 mode: 0 track 02: adr=1 ctrl=6 format=2 00:15:21 mode: 0 ID_VCD_TRACK_1_MSF=00:13:21 track 03: adr=1 ctrl=6 format=2 02:07:57 mode: 0 ID_VCD_TRACK_2_MSF=01:52:36 ID_VCD_TRACK_3_MSF=03:41:66 And this is what the windows version (MPlayer dev-SVN-r24956-4.2.2) says (using the same disc): Playing vcd://2. ID_VCD_START_TRACK=1 ID_VCD_END_TRACK=3 track 01: adr=1 ctrl=6 00:02:00 track 02: adr=1 ctrl=6 00:15:21 ID_VCD_TRACK_1_MSF=00:00:00 track 03: adr=1 ctrl=6 02:07:57 ID_VCD_TRACK_2_MSF=02:15:21 ID_VCD_TRACK_3_MSF=03:07:57 You see, the length (is the length?) that appears in the ID_VCD_TRACK_X_MSF tags are not the same. Another difference is that under linux title 1 is played with vcd://2, and title 2 with vcd://3 (vcd://1 doesn't play anything), while on windows title 1 is played with vcd://1 and title 2 with vcd://2 (vcd://3 plays nothing). This different behavior makes that my program doesn't work as expected when playing vcds under windows. -- RVM
