Dpup Exprimo 5.X.3.4.12 with 3.4.2 kernel.
Irishrm. You could try mplayer2 from this link. It has been compiled for my laptop, but my laptop is also intel i5 quad core...as yours. And I have intel graphics also. I though compiled it as native which makes it best optimized for my comp....but it might work for you. If not...I try to compile it with more conservative multicore version.

If it does not work, in my exprimo repo is several mplayer2 compiles. Just check them until you hopefully find working version: http://smokey01.com/pemasu/pet_packages-exprimo/
And this is no problem for me. This is learning process. And I have already created build, so I need something smaller to do. I will probably update next the 5.X.14 build to 5.X.15.

I have tried to compile LMMS Linux MultiMedia Studio in Exprimo and was wondering if anyone would like to test it out. Backi requested it.
I included the qt 4.8.0 libs from Pemasu's .pet and it seems qt-core looks for some ICU libs which would add lots of bloat to a package which is already quite big. Did a search and some are describing this as a known issue or bug of qt.
LMMS starts and runs OK from the menu. Console complains but I think you can just ignore it. Installing ICU cures the console whinges but it is 8.5 Megs as a .pet and 20 Megs unpacked.
Any thoughts?

pemasu oooOOOOoooOOOO this one... the August 5 update...
everything is fixed ! I now get monitor automatically sized to
1600 or so... all drive icons and menus are on screen - this was broken
in older dPup-Xprimo I had. Even flash player app worked first
time, from the built-in icon and launcher.
all my pets made with earlier dpup-Exprimo work well, and I made
several more, just to test... with a correct editor, my pet script works
no problem. In other distros... precise and fatSlacko... no blender could
be made to work... in your latest, blender pet made from PPM works
right away, so good !
the screen layout is just right... I can put each application icon around
the lines extending from puppy face - a great organizer built in
for free : -)
thanks so much for all your efforts... the dpup-squeeze series is favorite
of mine, as it is debian.
Excuse me... I have to go and break something so I can file a bug report : -)

OscarTalks. You have used Qt-4.8.0 libs meant for Lucid Puppy based Polarpup. It had that icu libs problem. Those darn icu libs. I had somehow the iculibs installed when I compiled qt for Polarpup...and qt compilation sniffed them.
But my qt-4.8.0 libs for dpup does not. I have learned my lessons.
So take the libs from here: http://smokey01.com/pemasu/QT-4.8.0-dpup/libs/

Sorry to report none of the mplayer pets worked. I got sound but only the outline of the player with them all.

irishrm - sorry if I havent followed your question, but it seemed to
be about mplayer not working... let me say first, Ive also had this type
of problem with some mplayer versions before... now, my answer.
Im currently using the latest download of dpup-Exprimo (from August 5)...
I just clicked in menu on GNOME-MPlayer, played a video with
it, no problems.
maybe try GNOME-MPlayer from the menu ? For me, this is at:
Menu --> Multimedia --> Multimedia --> Gnome-MPlayer . Hope
it works for you.
soundNICK
And to complete the quick tour of my Exprimo installs......... 5.X.14 has Gnome-Mplayer 1.0.5 which works fine as well.

James C. Thank you of your tests. I do not think the problem lies in the frontend ie gnome-mplayer. It lies in backend ie mplayer2 compile version. It seems that depending on git version and my compile options...I have been more succesful or less succesful.
I need to check those versions which worked for you. I really cant remember which version they used. I have compiled Mplayer2 at least dozen times...using usually recent git.

Gnome_mplayer works well for me also. I have no problem playing video or music mp3's.
My problem is with apps that default to mplayer. Mplayer doese'nt work as I describe in previous posts.
The tv streaming app in the menu is an example.
Pemasu:
Just remembered I have very good working version of your upup puppy precise and mplayer works fine in that. Different build?

Hi Oscar Talks !
Downloaded and installed Lmms Linux Multimedia Studio 0.4.13 on DpupExprimo .
Seems working so far . Did not test further .
But one thing for shure is missing That Sf2 player plugin .
Useless for me without that ( i think for the most other users to )
Somehow i got Lmms0.4.13 working on DpupExprimo by using a tricky procedure ( as far as i can remember ) ,
1. using lmms 0.4.8 sfs or pet installed them then
2. installing some lmms0. 4.13 debs from ubuntu lucid repos and installed them over 1.
Maybe there where some libpulse or libaudio missing too .i think i installed it (but cant exactly remember )
Worked without problem. But later i deinstalled it from Dpupexprimo . Now i am using lmms 0.4.13 on a Bodhi Linux installation .
I posted this text in the Request LMMS 0.4.13 and Multimedia LMMS 0.4.13 topic too .
But nevertheless thanks for your work and goodwill .

Irishrm. In Upup Precise...and in Precise Puppy the mplayer came from ubuntu packages and it was compiled as shared. So...cant use it. I want to compile static version with ffmpeg embedded into it.
Here is my first mplayer-svn test compile. Yeah...I switched to test mplayer now.
This one has been compiled with cpu detection... --enable-cpu-detection and I didnt give any tuning --extra-cflags. I want to see how mplayer cpu-detection works...or does it.
Also Irishrm. That gnome-mplayer works and streamplay plays sound but not video is strange. It means mplayer does not crash for you...but rtmpdump with mplayer does not provide video. It can be different problem.
Anyway....here is my first quite bloat free trial. It is meant for 5.X.4.3.2.9 dpup...because it wants librtmp to be installed. I didnt enable libblueray...because it isnt preinstalled in dpups. I can provide blueray enabled version also...if there is need for it. Just post the request.
Download link for mplayer-svn: http://smokey01.com/pemasu/pet_packages ... 082012.pet
If ppl are not tired for testing (James C ), please give this one a trial and post feedback...about in which cpu it works and is there media formats which it does not play which mplayer should.
OscarTalks. Thank you of your LMMS compile efforts. I will upload your dpup version to the exprimo repo if you get feedback that it is fully functional now...

pemasu:
I should have mentioned that mplayer crashes quite often and I have to use ctrl/alt/backspace to restart.
I have tried to use rtmpdump on this and other puppies and have never succeed in getting it working.
There are a number of rtmpdump apps around, mostly for windows but can be tried in linux.
The main app I use that defaults to mplayer is sopcast (for watching sport). This works on almost every other puppy I have tried it on.
Installed your latest mplayer. This time I have sound and a black screen so that's different at least.

Hi pemasu,
Well, I've finally been able to look at 5.X.3.4.9. and it looks great.
One small problem, Bibletime works, but only from the prompt. It does not show up in the menu, and the Bibletime.desktop file will not execute it when clicked. Executing bibletime from a prompt opens it and shows no error messages.
Cheers,
Jim
