I just now upgraded mplayer on my Etch system using:
############# Acroread, Mplayer, RealPlayer etc #################
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main
deb-src http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main
########################################################################
mozilla-mplayer was not touched.
I was able to install mplayer pointing apt to the sources above, but
still not able to play DVDs.....
Playing dvd://1.
libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable.
libdvdread: Invalid main menu IFO (VIDEO_TS.IFO).
, or .wmv etc..i remember when i source compiled mplayer for SUSE i
had to download codecs , and the configure script found them, and i
was able to play .wmv etc.. is there a way to do this easy in Debian
without going into the complications of source
compilations/checkinstalls etc...or are there some licensing issues
which prevent Debian from shipping mplayer with all codecs...??
Thanks
Digz
