[MPlayer-dev-eng] mplayer + live on arm

[Gopinadhan Gautam]

Hi,
   I have successfully compiled mplayer with live
libraries using the instructions in this message.

http://mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-dev-eng/2003-August/019911.html

However I am facing some problems running mplayer. I
would appreciate if you could provide some input on
what could be going wrong.

I have compiled the player using the arm toolchain
v3.3 from openzaurus. 

- First error I faced was when I tried to play with
the stripped version of mplayer that gets installed,
it crashes out with a weird error. So I used the
unstripped version and this one does not at least exit
out. Anyone know why the strip does not work?
- On trying to play a local file, I get the following
messages. Unfortunately the shell on the familiar
linux does not allow me redirect stderr and stdout
into a file. So I am giving them separately below.
Also note that there is a flicker of a window that
appears on the display when I run the application.

========End messages=============

"Select error: Bad address" seems to the reason why it
is crashing out. It cleanly exits out rather than core
dumping since gdb does not give any backtrace on exit.

- Finally when I try to access an rtsp stream I get
the following messages.

I tried both these steps with the mplayer + live
application that I compiled for the desktop and they
work fine.

- Details of the code and tools that I am using:

live.2003.10.08.tar.gz
mplayer latest from the CVS picked on Oct 15th.
arm-linux toolchain 3.3 from the openzaurus website.


Any help is appreciated.

Regards,
Gautam.
