Hi, since I am in the middle of updating the mplayer and mencoder ports anyway, we might as well include the latest feature that has found its way upstream. For a few days now, the mplayer development snapshots are able to take advantage of multithreaded ffmpeg decoding (h264 and a few others). Therefore I have updated the experimental tarballs to today's svn snapshot. You can find the port tarballs here: http://www.rrr.de/~riggs/mplayer/m20110329.tar.bz2
You can enable the multithreaded decoder by running run mplayer -lavdopts threads=N file (N being the number of desired decoder threads). Note that this does not apply to all stages of the playback pipeline, e.g., if playback is dropping frames due to excessive postprocessing options, this won't necessarily solve the problem. Have fun Riggs _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
