 Posted: Fri Feb 04, 2005 5:59 pm Post subject: video bad decoding :( |
 |
|
Hi, I've a weird situation....
Whenever I try to reproduce a DVD or an mpeg (xine & mplayer), the decoding has a very bad quality, I don't know how to describe it, looks like a 256x256 video playing@fullscreen, very pixeled, in form of squares.. you know what I mean?
Like a 486 playing a very high quality video or something.. sorry can't describe it better
I got a Athlon XP Barton 2600+
Asus A7N8X Mobo and
MSI-GForce FX 5600 256MB
My config:
USE="-gtk -gnome kde qt alsa opengl cdr"
Got nvidia workig w/o problems (playing ET, DOOM3, UT2004 smootlhy)
Any ideas??
?
P.D.: I've just played some of my mpeg on a Pentium III 750 Mhz, and went smootly =( NO FAIR!!!  |

well, could just guess here, but are the appropriate codecs installed? "emerge win32codecs".

Danke for the answer
I'm not on my computer right know, but I think win32codes are part of the dependencies of mplayer and xine, so I could say they were installed..
or do you mean if I have some particular version of the codecs??
should I try:
~x86 win32codecs??? |

no, ~x86 shouldnt be needed for this case. dunno about xine, but infact of mplayer the win32codecs ara not a dependency IIRC.
if you open a konsole in your GUI and run "mplayer" without any arguments, could you please post the output? this part:
| Code: |

'xcuse the german inbetween the code, but since you sayed "danke" i guess you get the meaning  |

(sorry for the spanish between )
I saw a lot of "fallido" -> "failed", and also no MMX 3DNOW OR SSE support...
I added the "mmx mmx2 3dnow 3dnow2 sse sse2" flags the make.confg and recompiled mplayer, but nothing changed
any ideas? (plz)

i dont think this has to do with your problem, but the flags are stripped by the ebuild. if you want to enable them, comment the following in your ebuild:
| Code: |
# let's play the filtration game! MPlayer hates on all!
# strip-flags
[...]
if use x86 ; then
# replace-flags -O0 -O2
# replace-flags -O3 -O2
filter-flags -fPIC -fPIE
fi
|
be aware that after next emerge sync your changes are gone, because the ebuildfile will get overwritten. but until you do not reemerge mplayer, that isnt a problem. |

Really apreciate that ^^

what? i have posted this in my previous article in this thread, i simply modified the ebuild and commented the "strip-flags" line.
however, it works fine here anyway, even without this mmx stuff. as i already guessed - this is not your problem.
do other players do fine? xine for example? |

Same thing with xine
Could this be a "cpu type" thing?? just tested the video file with another athlon and same thing....but this does not happen with Intel cpus 
So it´s not the USE flags..
Thanks for the tip of the ebuild by the way...

i everything else works fine i doubt that. however, post the output of "emerge info".
hmm. what hapens if you change the videooutput?
mplayer -vo x11
mplayer -vo xv
does that make a difference?
btw.. in your example above, i see:
VIDEO: MPEG1 352x240 (aspect 12) 29.970 fps 1099.2 kbps (137.4 kbyte/s)
this actually might look ugly in fullscreen.. what funny resolution is that

and here it looks like the initialization of the vcoded failed (if i understand this correctly)
well, 352x240 isnt even a valid VCD resolution..
try a correct (S)VCD or DVD movie.
//edit: i just see this is NTSC.. so it is correct VCD format. sorry, used to PAL over here |
