My MPlayer (2 Viewers)

[misterd]

From what I can see in the log, you started successfully the playback of two files and stopped them after a couple of seconds. The third file also started successfully and when you stopped it MP crashed. If this is what happened I'm pretty sure that I have found the reason for the error and will fix the problem in the next version.

I will also add an additional check for the executable of mplayer to prevent an error in this case too.

Hi there.
Ive upgraded to v 0.2.3.0 installed the newer mplayer plugin & configured.
Unfortunately, none of my video files are listed when using the mplayer gui in Mediaportal.

Normally it should work out of the box. If your shares are displayed and only the files are missing, you should check in the configuration of the external player, if the extensions are listed. The gui plugin only lists files that have an extension that is defined in the external player configuration.
If the extensions are listed in the configuration than please try it again and post a log here. Perhaps an error occurs on your system that I have to fix than

Could you please tell me which skin you are using? Or does it happen with all skins? I'm pretty sure that this bug is related to the skin file, but I might be wrong.
I only have tested it with B2, B2 wide and PMIII.

I'm using my skin, Electric Lead but i'll test it using another skin, and then i'll report the results here...

I tested the external osd library with your skin and I can confirm that MP is crashing with this skin. The next version for SVN will have additional checks to prevent this error. Sorry but it's to complicated for me to maintain two different versions, because MP 0.2.3 doesn't have some methods I'm using in my library.
The reason is that I'm looking for some specific elements in the skin. You are using group elements which get one of those id's ('0') I'm looking for. The result is the crash.
The next problem is that my osd library doesn't support group elements at the moment. I will have a look how they can be supported too.

Mplayer issues, with Process not Closing.

Was wondering if anyone new a fix, for Mplayer (process)hanging. This happens when you fast forward the movie a couple of times. When you exit the video seem to stop but the sound as well as the mplayer process continue to run. Not sure if this is a thing with Directx but I even send the sound directly to the card and still does the same thing, Any help would be great.

The addition of Mplayer through this plugin is great. The one thing that I loved about MythTV was the Mplayer, but overshadowed by complexity in addins, setup etc. rendering engine. Since it plays everything, No matter if the index is missing incomplete. Its fast LightWeight.

PS: Thanks for the help.

I haven't seen this problem so far. It would help me a lot if you could provide some logs of this situation. Than I might be able to reproduce the situation here and find a solution for it.

I have updated the osd library to support GUIGroup elements. I have attached the new version for SVN 16546 and higher. This should solve the problems with Electric lead and similar skins.

patricon: It would be nice if you could check if everything is working now with your skin. I hadn't the time to do a complete test.
