MPlayer for Windows (2019-10-15)

[Hogge]

Strange,it crashes and sorry not error code,exit code 62097...
I saw on Smplayer forum a guy with same problem exit code same as me.It sounds like its trying to start it like start engine of the car but the movie doesnt start.And the crash with 2 logs these 2 i posted on the second one it says exit code 62097..I guess i will have to use the older version.The only old i have is from 0426-2008.Its great.

[Hogge]

Sorry for spamming,I updated my Nvidia card to latest drivers 175.19 and i tried the latest build and i keep the setting from the 0426 build,it seems to work for now strange.But i still like to know the exit code 62097 what does it mean.Do you know Mulder.Thanks again for a great Media Player!!!:thanks:

[LoRd_MuldeR]

I got no idea what the exit code means and unless there is some error message on the log I cannot help you...

[burro08]

LoRd_MuldeR how do u set the default aspect ratio??? when i open a file i want the AR to be automatically 5:4

thank you

[LoRd_MuldeR]

MPlayer/SMPlayer will display each video with the correct aspect ratio by default.
If you really want, you can enforce the desired aspect ratio via "Video -> Aspect Ratio -> 5:4"

[Hogge]

Now its stalling again,i guess i will have to use an older build!!

Hi LoRd_MuldeR :)

Many thanks for your work on MPUI, it's much appreciated :)

Could you please tell me if your MPUI compile(v1.2-pre3.38) includes other changes besides the "-enable-color-console" fix and the little UI changes(sorry, i don't know delphi...) ?

Btw, on my P4 1.7GHz, then the MPlayer build that's included in the latest official MPUI package(dev-SVN-r26251-3.4.2 compiled with CPU runtime-detection), is faster and lighter than the P4 optimized "Sherpya" build(Sherpya-SVN-r27323-4.2.4)...

I have just tested it again with a DivX movie :

CPU : ~10% Vs. ~20%
RAM : ~18mb Vs. ~25mb

And it's a 1.8mb smaller build, as the MPUI author strips out some un-needed and non-media-player related stuff...

Do you have similar experiences and do you know if it's because of the stripped components, or if that older build where just faster in general ?

Personally, i would love if you in addition to your Light-installer, then also would provide a compressed archive with the optimized and UPX'ed "Sherpya" builds and the UPX'ed MPUI build, but that's just me...

Thank's in advance.

[LoRd_MuldeR]

I compiled the MPUI sources as you can find them on my homepage. That is a modified version, by me.
And there is no such thing as "configure" in Delphi. You just load the project file (.dpr) and click the "Run" button. That's it.
For my MPUI builds I use Delphi 7 Professional. You also need the "TNT Unicode Controls" for MPUI...

About the MPlayer builds: I simply grab the latest builds by Sherpya as those are usually up-to-date and they run stable.
Keep in mind that "optimized" binaries are often bigger, as they are optimized for speed, not for size (think of "loop unrolling" and stuff).
My installer will already UPX the binaries after extraction. If you don't want that, run it with /NOPACK switch...

I just asked you if you had made other changes in your v1.2-pre3.38 build of MPUI, besides the "-enable-color-console" fix and the little UI changes ?

And then if you had noticed that the MPlayer build in the latest official MPUI package(dev-SVN-r26251-3.4.2 compiled with CPU runtime-detection) did use less cpu and ram than the P4 optimized "Sherpya" build in your latest installer(Sherpya-SVN-r27323-4.2.4) :

CPU : ~10% Vs. ~20%
RAM : ~18mb Vs. ~25mb

Thank's in advance...

[LoRd_MuldeR]

Yes, I did some more changes to MPUI. For example I exchanged the MPlayer logo and I added code to center the MPUI window on your screen.

Also note that CPU usage in Taskmanger alone doesn't say much about the actual performance of an application.
For example higher CPU usage can also mean that there are less situations in which the application has to wait idly, so the performance might actually be better.
Especially on multi-core (multi-processor) systems a higher CPU usage usually (but not always!) indicates better performance due to better multi-threading.
However if you feel the older build works better on your machine, feel free to use it...

[Martin H]

Many thank's for your reply, mate :)

Yes, i had noticed the collor change and center window placement and that was actually also what i meant about "small UI changes" :)

Yes, about the cpu usage, then i understand what you say, but i was just very puzzled about the newer P4 optimized build did use about the double amount of cpu resources and about 7MB more in ram consumption, and as i only have a P4 1.7GHz with 256mb ram and where 32mb's of that is shared with the on-board graphics, then i will use your MPUI compile together with the MPlayer build from the official MPUI package(dev-SVN-r26251-3.4.2 compiled with CPU runtime-detection)...

Again, many thanks for your work and reply :)

CU, Martin.

[LoRd_MuldeR]

Time for a RAM upgrade! You can get 4 GB of RAM for 60€ these days ...

[Martin H]

Yeah, i know, but instead of upgrading my system because of bloated and resource hungry apps, then i just instead preffer to use effecient apps instead... :)

That's also the reason for me using Win2K with Fred Vorck's IE/Junk removal fileset, instead of XP or Vista and hence, my commit is just 34MB :)

[plugh]

I just tried out this windows mplayer package; nice. I've noticed two items, common to both front-ends, that I hope someone can shed light on.

1) When I add the -benchmark option, the output it is supposed to generate does not appear in the log files.

2) A "-vf screenshot" filter is being added somewhere (which causes a software scalar to be invoked for yv12 to rgb24 on my system). I couldn't find it in any of the gui options, and ended up having to add a -vf-del to undo it.

Comments? TIA!

[Gusar]

2) A "-vf screenshot" filter is being added somewhere (which causes a software scalar to be invoked for yv12 to rgb24 on my system)That scaler is only invoked when you actually press the screenshot button, it does not affect the normal viewing of the video.

[Hogge]

Hi Mulder!!Its really sad,i can no longer use your versions,when i try start a avi file,it tries to start it,it can take maybe up to 1min.And sometimes it crashes the exit code 62097.
Ive tried to post this to Sherpya with no luck.
The SMPlayer Standalone package i can use,so it must be something else.Im really sad i like your builds.

Here is a log below,before the exit code.

Try this from the commandline:
"C:\Program Files\MPlayer for Windows\MPlayer.exe" -noquiet "C:\Users\Hogge\Desktop\WWESUM~1.XVI\KYR-WW~1.AVI"

If it still crashes, than it's a problem in the MPlayer, either in MPlayer itself or in Sherpya's build.
I have some problem with the latest MPlayer builds too and I tried to report these in the MPlayer IRC channel.
But with "unofficial" Win32 builds they aren't willing to give support...

New build version 2008-08-15
Fixed: Workaround for the SkinnedControls plugin one Windows Vista x64 SP1 and more that not drawn buttons at all. (Buttons are now unskinned on this system version)

Download (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=146999)

I hope the problem with skinned Buttons on Vista is fixed now. Here is a new Test build:

[Hogge]

Hi Mulder!I tried running from command in Vista,same problem?But from command line it goes to basic,video starts after 20-30sec!

[dat720]

Hogge there is no problem with the current build....

mplayer has issues with Vista and Direct Draw, try changing the Video Out driver to gl:yuv=3 or gl:yuv=2:force-pbo:ati-hack i've found these 2 to give the best performance.

[Hogge]

Hi dat!Ive tried that,its the latest 3-4 builds that i have problem with.Mplayer,Smplayer tries to start a video [avi] it can take up to a minute,and sometimes it doesnt.And dat do you now what exit code 62097 is?Thanks every body for trying to help,RVM Smplayer i can run.But i prefer Mulders.:thanks:

[dat720]

There must be a problem elsewhere with your setup, the only time i ever have playback issues is if the video requires more processing power than my pc has!

[_xxl]

Can you please add an option not to upx almost all files in the installer, it takes long time to install mplayer.
Thanks!

[Martin H]

@_xxl:

The installer supports a '/NOPACK' command-line argument :)

[Lenny_Nero]

That's also the reason for me using Win2K with Fred Vorck's IE/Junk removal fileset, instead of XP or Vista and hence, my commit is just 34MB :)
Yep ...another Win 2k user here (the best M$ OS around there is a reason why its still a viable Vista upgrade :) ), but TBH 256 MB is a tiny amount of local RAM in todays world, I even use 388 MB in my 466 MHz router/firewall/server/main gate box (had been 128 MB for 6+ years of its life) and Win 2000 comes alive above 1 GB, all of my other win 2000 boxes run 2 GB or more.

As said its not a large amount of money and still about the best power/speed upgrade for any OS.

[Martin H]

@Lenny_Nero:

Thank's for your reply, mate :)

Yeah, i see your point, but as i'm not using background-running stuff like anti-virus/malware(i just re-image every 7-14 days, or if having a problem and simply use common-sence), and are just using apps like Opera, ImgBurn,7-Zip, foobar2000, SumatraPDF and MPUI etc, then i'm actually alright with 256mb, but if running big apps and doing e.g. video encoding and such, then it would of course be a big bottleneck, but anyway, thanks again for your reply, and i apologise to Mulder for the off-topic'ness...

[vio_man]

Does Mplayer support interlaced PAFF on H.264? VLC does support it on nightly builds, but those builds are not quite usable.

[LoRd_MuldeR]

Does Mplayer support interlaced PAFF on H.264? VLC does support it on nightly builds, but those builds are not quite usable.

VLC and MPlayer use the very same H.264 decoder, namely ffmpeg/libavcodec. So if VLC supports PAFF, then MPlayer does too :)

BUT: The latest MPlayer builds for Win32 date back to 2008-07-18, so you might need to wait for fresh builds or compile your own MPlayer.exe ...

[vlada]

In MPlayer from 2008-07-18 should be PAFF implemented. I think it is supported at least for a half of year.

Now I'd like to ask you for help with my problem. On my work computer I can't run MPlayer. The CLI version MPlayer.exe always instantly exits without any output. I tried different versions and builds. I have a suspicion that a firewall or other "service" is blocking MPlayer. I tried to rename the .exe but it didn't help.

Do you have any idea how to check if my suspicion is correct? And more importantly do you have any idea how I could fool the service?

[LoRd_MuldeR]

I don't see how a firewall could prevent MPlayer from starting up :confused:

I recommend you try to run MPlayer.exe from gdb and see what it reports. Maybe you get some useful output...

You can get latest gdb version here:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=20507&release_id=594520

Try like this:
"C:\MinGW\Bin\gdb.exe" "C:\Program Files\MPlayer for Windows\MPlayer.exe"

Then type "run" to start execution and see what will happen...

[Hogge]

There must be a problem elsewhere with your setup, the only time i ever have playback issues is if the video requires more processing power than my pc has!

Hi Dat!There is no problem with my setup,ive tried anything anbd everything,i mean what can i do wrong.Im running Vista AMD 64X2 2,3ghz ,4gb memory.Dat tell me how to setup then,ive never had problems befor it the latest build only.

[dat720]

I have no idea what software or problems there could be with Your PC, my current setup is Vista x64 Intel Q9550 (this thing rocks!!!) 4gb ram, and mplayer and mencoder work perfectly!

On that note...

Mulder, one thing that anoys me about your Installer is no Mencoder!!!!
Could you do 2 packages.... one with mencoder and one without!

[DarkZell666]

Mulder, one thing that anoys me about your Installer is no Mencoder!!!!

What's wrong with not bundling an encoding program in a playback package ? :p

You can get mencoder from here (http://oss.netfarm.it/mplayer-win32.php) (bundled with mplayer) though :)

[vlada]

Try like this:
"C:\MinGW\Bin\gdb.exe" "C:\Program Files\MPlayer for Windows\MPlayer.exe"

Then type "run" to start execution and see what will happen...

Thanks for your help. This is the result I got:

Is it of any help? I'm afraid not. I think I might need a debug version of MPlayer.

[LoRd_MuldeR]

Is it of any help? I'm afraid not. I think I might need a debug version of MPlayer.

Well, the debugger works even without a Debug build. In case of a crash a Debug build simply gives more useful info, that's it.

But you don't get any output at all. That really bizarre. Sure your MPlayer.exe file is okay ???


You should get something like this:

Mulder, one thing that anoys me about your Installer is no Mencoder!!!!

I don't see a reason to have MEncoder in a playback package. Also none of the front-end does use MEncoder.
So there is absolutely no difference if you download the MEncoder.exe alone. See the link provided by DarkZell666.

[vlada]

LoRd_MuldeR> The same MPlayer.exe works on other computers without any problems. But it doesn't work on any computer at work. I also tried other builds with the same result. So my conclusion is that there must be something in our network which kills MPlayer as soon as it is started.

But I'm wondering how the "service" could recognize that the process is MPlayer. Do you have any idea?

Maybe a blacklist on the executable name ?
Or even a whitelist with authorised programs in which mplayer isn't listed ? What if you rename to somethingelse.exe ?

[LoRd_MuldeR]

The network cannot cause the problem, because the MPlayer process won't open any network connections before writing the copyright notice and stuff to stdout.
Unless you try to open a web stream, it won't open any network connection at all...

I guess it's some "conflicting" software, which is installed on all the computers at work. Maybe some tool that prevents workers from stating up "entertainment" software or buggy A/V software ?!?!?

[vlada]

DarkZell666> As I already wrote renaming the EXE doesn't help. Also almost all other programs (in portable versions) work without any problems.

LoRd_MuldeR> Yes, this is also what I think. Maybe antivirus (which I can't stop) is causing it. But I'm wondering how it can identify that the process is MPlayer.

[LoRd_MuldeR]

But I'm wondering how it can identify that the process is MPlayer.

Hash? Signature? Heuristics? ...

Ooops, I did read your posts though, I must have scrolled past that one :o
Well, antiviruses identify viruses directly by detecting "bytecode patterns", or so to say. It would be very farfetched to think they actually built a signature to forbid mplayer, but technically it's possible imho.

As MuldeR says, some companies use hidden processes to actually do just that sort of thing. They can even detect forbidden processes remotely (how cool is that ? ... lol).

How exactly they detect mplayer depends on the product. Right-click on mplayer.exe and check the "version" tab. Some of them maybe use the info from in there, dunno ... There's tons of meta-information to be used to identify a program, and the "version" tab is only part of it :)

Fair enough... im just lazy.... im a public servant what do you expect :)

LoRd_MuldeR

Thank you for your wonderful job.
Two question:

*if I put the mplayer window in some position on the screen there is an option to retain this position when the next title from my playlist is played?
*when i make some changes on brightness/contrast there is an option to retain these settings when the next title from my play list is played? when the next title is played MPlayer redraw some default values...

MPLayer is wonderful to play music too... sorry but i use one old 10/2007 version. All the newest mplayer versions have 40-50% more CPU using... i do not know why this happen, but anyway... great player... the best literally.

[dat720]

That seems strange that mplayer is using 40-50% for music........

I have the most current build and it only uses 20% CPU to playback a 21gb HD mkv

[panzerino]

I have Pentium 4 Northwood with only 1GB RAM... :)

[Martin H]

As i previously stated in this thread, then the MPlayer build that's included in the latest official MPUI package(dev-SVN-r26251-3.4.2 from the 15th of march '08 which is compiled with CPU runtime-detection), uses less CPU cycles and RAM while also being 1.8mb smaller than the P4 optimized "Sherpya" build(Sherpya-SVN-r27323-4.2.4) that's included in MuldeR's latest installer...
