MPlayer 1.5 released!
Home away from home

See User information
Marry XMas to all of you!

After several months of development we are pleased to present the first public release candidate of MPlayer 1.5 ... the initial aim of the project was to try implementing support for va.library (VAAPI) providing hardware video decoding and of possibly reunify all the main features of the previous scattered releases, from the ancient one from Andrea, up to the most recent versions from LiveForIt and MickJT.

As often happens in projects of this size, anieay things then evolved a little differently, the various features were now unified, making our version certainly the most complete (yes, no more different versions to download to choose which one to use based on your needs) but the video acceleration project has currently been postponed for a later date!

However, this gave us time to implement a lot of new features and solve a large number of bugs that had accumulated over the years, as well as obviously allowing us to merge with the latest SVN version of the main branch of MPlayer and FFmpeg 6.0

There are many people to thank, Javier de las Rivas for the bulk of the work on the code and for his enormous patience in solving a massive number of bugs, Marek for managing the collection of new changes, as well as for having implemented some code himself (I am thinking of the iconification function for example), to MickJT for several fixes and obviously for providing us his updated code, to Joerg for his newest Amiga video driver based to p96, to Guillaume Boesel for the implementation of the MenuClass, for the AISS icons in the menus and other small graphically appealing things, to Mason for the iconsets and the banner and finally in small way also me to managed the project by put the various piece toghter, making small corrections here and there, minor changes to the source, added new video/audio formats into the EXPATTERN and finally the re-implementation of the AmiUpdate support.. i learned a lot from you all, thank you guys!

The archive is currently available in the upload section of os4depot, download it while it's hot!

New? Not really
It's probably even older, but the file date of the last version of my vo_amiga.c I found was 30.04.2014.
IIRC I implemented it for MPlayer version 0.9 or 1.0, glad you got something working out of this mess even with current MPlayer versions.
It's useless for current hardware, the PIP/overlay parts were only supported by some ancient gfx cards like Merlin, Voodoo 3/4/5, ATI R100/R200, etc. and current gfx cards no longer support PIP/overlay, but the 16 bit RGB part of it (-vo amiga:mode=3 in my versions) might still be usable for 16 bit only gfx cards like the SM502: A Sam460ex without gfx card and QEmu.

It actually works with "-vo amiga:mode=3" and MPlayer 1.5 but leads to a slightly higher CPU load when playing videos compared to the sdl_sm502/comp or wpa output.

I would also like to thank the entire MPlayer team for this new version of MPlayer.

Thank you all for another great release!
Works perfect on my X5000. VA enabled would be very nice as well, but as mentioned on the roadmap..

Keep up the good work.

Well done.

A few questions how did you get AltVec compiled binaries to link with none AltiVec compiled binaries. this why was two versions of MPlayer, the main place use AltiVec was copy routine, but there also used in Video codec, was that part converted into plugins?

Different part of code is compiled in depending on defines used, basically output code should be different depending on switches used.

#if defined(__altivec__)
// THIS ALTIVEC CODE IS COMPILED IN TO EXECUTABLE
#else
// THIS NORMAL C/C++ CODE IS COMPILED IN TO EXECUTABLE
#endif

In this cases, you get two different binary files, depending on the compiler switches.
only G4 and PA6T CPU’s have AltiVec, anything else, does not.

This are compiled time switches, they are not run time switches.

Great Christmas present - thank you!-)

Has anyone been able to run Mplayer-Gui with this new version succesfully? M-Gui crashes ('8000 0003') every time I try (X5000).

Just tested it on my x5000 setup and it works fine! For now I did not have any crash or something like that.

In 2014 we were already at version 1.0, I think LiveForIt was already working on it.
This vo_amiga.c is however more recent and complete than the old p96 outputs we had before (P96PIP and PIP).

The only thing we haven't managed to implement yet is the fullscreen :-/

It's not useless, it's only a driver for older graphics cards... not everyone has the possibility to install RadeonHD/RX graphics cards on their Amiga ...

Our version of MPlayer should work with MPlayer-GUI 1.61.
The only known issue was that in MPlayer 1.5 not all video drivers were shown in the list.. there was a limit of viewable video outputs which has now been resolved ..
A new version should be availible soon though

Hi
The list of changes is always dry data.
Here in the video you can see how to use the mplayer icon in amidock to play videos.
In most cases you no longer need the mplayer-gui.
You just need to know which video output works best for you.
I have a QEMU Pegasos 2 and use the preferred video output for me.
You need to set your own.

I hope this will be useful for you

*It may take a while to set up mplayer for the first time . A database of available fonts is being built up.

We still have two different binaries, one compiled for machines that support AltiVec, and another one (generic) that will work everywhere.... the only thing we have fixed is that if you now try to run an AltiVec executable on a CPU that doesn't support it, we now have a simple alert requester instead of a crash

There are also problems with the new Mplayer 1.5 version and YT.rexx/Odyssey to Guru when streaming from YouTube.

Can anybody confirm this?

I recorded the log to better understand what caused the crash.

If you have the opportunity check the versions on openssl.
No one has previously reported problems with amissl

This is probably because very few people use Yt.rexx with Odyssey when playing YouTube videos.

AmiSSL is up to date and the problem still exists with the Os4Depot 1.5 version. I just want to point this out.

I only noticed the error with the Os4Depot version, testing different versions is a bit complicated, so I concentrated on the published release on Os4Depot. But it should also be reproducible on real machines.

Thank you very much for your time
I don't use YT or aiostreams so I wasn't able to check it. Versions were given but there were so many that maybe something was missed.I also have multiple versions of Mplayer and a new branch of FFmpeg 6.1.
I installed aiostreams and opened the reported error on QEMU.
Thanks again for your work.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

If anyone had a similar error please check the one given in the attachment above.
