Thanks for the reply. That would explain why ffplay works then, and why I couldn't get any -lavfdopts or other flags to make mplayer play any streams, although I have very limited knowledge of ffmpeg flags and what they all do. Is there a problem with linking to libxml2? My copy of (a recent svn + ffmpeg from git) mplayer seems to link to it: ldd =mplayer | grep xml libxml2.so.2 => /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2 (0x00007f3f32630000) -- Dave _______________________________________________ MPlayer-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/mplayer-users
