[MPlayer-users] mplayer can't play WMV3 files

[Anders Misfeldt]

Hi,

When I try playing wmv3 files on my Fedora Core 1 box (using MPlayer-1.0pre3), mplayer simply crashes with this error:

MPlayer interrupted by signal 11 in module: init_video_codec
- MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM.
  Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and
  disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash.
- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen.
  It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your
  gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read
  DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and
  won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug.
Segmentation fault


A gdb backtrace gives:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

So what's up? Why can't I play WMV3 files? When I try playing WMV1 or WMV2 files nothing's wrong. It's only WMV3 files.
