[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, I'm trying to use mplayer to watch TV and while it does work it has a few problems. The first is that when you force it to capture audio (so mute and volume control work, or you can use mencoder) it does about 0.25 fps :( It doesn't appear to be using heaps of CPU or anything so I am not sure what the problem is. The other is that it hitches when playing TV - it doesn't do this when viewing movies. Has anyone else used mplayer for this? Do you see these problems? Anyone have any suggestions or solutions? The PC is running 5.4 and is an 900Mhz Athlon. The TV card is some generic bktr card with no EEPROM. I have the following in .mplayer/config if anyone is interested. tv=driver=bsdbt848:input=1:norm=PAL:chanlist=australia:channels=2-ABC,7-SAS7,9-NINE,10-TEN,28-SBS It would be nice to iron out this stuff because applying the mplayer post processing filters to TV makes it look much nicer :) -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBDdyTf5ZPcIHs/zowRAhYBAJ9amLzZV6VghSXkhe7VEqv4zCXBcQCgip8e Pth83QdNC0dm2rwivHXcbRQ= =UHGU -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
