[MPlayer-users] Mplayer -wid problem on Solaris 10

[Mincer, Earl-p57431]

Hi all,

New to the list and new to Mplayer...

I need some urgent help in trying to use the -wid option for Mplayer
under Solaris 10 with X11.

I'm pretty certain I get the right window ID using xwinfo, and when I
run mplayer, that window does get focus but then it crashes. The same
experiment works as excepted under Linux and under Windows XP. Is this a
Solaris 10 bug or am I doing something wrong? 

Here are more details:

- Solaris 10
- Release: MPlayer 1.0pre7try2-3.3.2 
- plays in separate window without -wid option
- with WID option crashes with 
X11 error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
		Type: 0, display: 73f608, resourceid: 5000002, serial:
25
		Error code: 8, request code: 2, minor code: 0

I obtain the window IDs as follows:

Under Windows I get it the ID using Microsoft Visual C++ Spy++. On Linux
and Solaris under X11, I get the ID using xwininfo. In order to
(hopefully) create the right kind of window with the right attributes, I
first launch Mplayer to play a clip, then pause it. In another terminal,
I get the window ID using xwinfo and then try to run it using -wid, thus
attaching to my paused window. As I said, this DOES work on Linux and
Windows XP. 

In reality, the window I will want to attach to will not be an Mplayer
window but an existing window I created elsewhere in our own code. I
intend to get that WID with a script that uses xwinfo and parses the
output to get that ID. That window is a collection of widgets, one of
which is the space for the video playback. 

Can anyone shed light on:
	-  What Error code: 8, request code: 2 might mean? I see in
Xprotos.h 
a reference to X_ChangeWindowAttributes but I'm not clear how this is 
occurring based on what I'm trying to do.

-  What is the proper way to get a WID I can pass to Mplayer from 
		within my C/C++ code? Esepcially since the target is a
widget, and the
		window is a collection of these widgets. The XtWindow
call on the widget I want to use 
		for video didn't seem to work so I was trying to use
xwinfo within a script instead. Is that the right idea?

Any input would be greatly appreciated, and Happy Thanksgiving to
whomever might be celebrating.

I hate making such a long post but my verbose Mplayer output follows, in
case its of any use. Thanks!
