B612 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Sorry if I am too ignorant, but how to view subtitles with MPlayer, if they are in a different folder than the video, or they are named differently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know of any other open source players than can play that format . Blue color around the back button? I don't know what you mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karosa Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Sorry if I am too ignorant, but how to view subtitles with MPlayer, if they are in a different folder than the video, or they are named differently? Hello The command line options differ slightly for the different formats: VOBsub subtitles. VOBsub subtitles consist of a big (some megabytes) .SUB file, and optional .IDX and/or .IFO files. If you have files like sample.sub, sample.ifo (optional), sample.idx - you have to pass MPlayer the -vobsub sample [-vobsubid id] options (full path optional). The -vobsubid option is like -sid for DVDs, you can choose between subtitle tracks (languages) with it. In case that -vobsubid is omitted, MPLayer will try to use the languages given by the -slang option and fall back to the langidx in the .IDX file to set the subtitle language. If it fails, there will be no subtitles. Other subtitles. The other formats consist of a single text file containing timing, placement and text information. Usage: If you have a file like sample.txt, you have to pass the option -sub sample.txt (full path optional). Command line options are of course given as "additional parameters in the gui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XanthraX Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Thanks for a good and not resource hog program. I downloaded the version with GUI, I'm totally useless in using command line. I have the surprise that the program loads automatically the subtitles, if the subtitle file has the EXACTLY name of the movie file and it is in the same container. But I need an option to localize the subtitle language (like in VLC: ISO-8859-2 for my language). Thanks and keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B612 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 HelloCommand line options are of course given as "additional parameters in the gui Hi. Thanks for your answer. I've actually found a much easier and better way to open whatever subtitles you want. You open the playlist, then you select the movie that is there and you press the button "I" (for information). Then you get a screen in which you can select the name of the subtitle file and other things. Have a good day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wesley Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Dunno about that. M$ did release Windows Media Player for OSX for a while. Don't know if they're planning a unibin or not.. or if they're still doing it at all Just to keep your heads up, MS officially ended Windows Media Player for Mac last January and are supporting Flip4Mac WMV component instead. Flip4Mac is currently working on UniBin version of the component. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get it.. If I'm right in supposing that it's the movie in the background and that it's NOT supposed to be blue then it's a colospace issue.. What GFX card do you have? try other lines or try adding -vf-add noformat=bgra to the additional parameters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ignorantcow Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Would it be possible to decode WMV9 videos using a supposedly "universal" binary of ffmpegX? iSquint claims to be unibin and uses ffmpeg.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karosa Posted March 30, 2006 Author Share Posted March 30, 2006 mplayer uses ffmpeg (libavcodec, libavformat, and something else from ffmpeg), but ffmpeg doesn't contain a WMV9 codec. I don't see anything about WMV9 support on ffmpegX site either, though ffmpegx appears to just be a frontend for mencoder in which case you could probably use my mencoder compile with it, if you replace the included one with the one from my mencoder gui bundle, but you'd still be lacking WMA support. (for the new wma formats) plus various other things that I didn't compile into that mencoder (h264 encoding, ac3 encoding, etc.) AFAIK there is no open source WMV9 codec (except libvc1 but that's not really open source) nor is there any way to decode new WMA types without the windows codec loader. Aubin Paul's been making some progress with the loader but I'm too lazy to switch on my osx86 pc these days so didn't test his fixes yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HShin Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Wonder if anyone has picked up on this, but on my set there's audio clipping on certain AVI files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karosa Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 Wonder if anyone has picked up on this, but on my set there's audio clipping on certain AVI files. "certain avi files" doesn't say much Perhaps if you were a little more specific. Reasons could include a buggy codec, unsupported gfx(with slow cpu), not enough ram, slow disk access, and at least 50 other things. Can't really say anything for just "certain avi files" Do they play fine on VLC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korrupted Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 MPlayer for Intel will rock when they finally get DivX to work, but until then I think I'll stick with the PPC version; it runs nearly as smooth and plays DivX movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
