In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org i had a simular problem with it core dumping. it turned out the linux binary was being linked against both libc5 and libc6 which isnt good. you might try ldd mtv and see if yours is doing the same. you might also make sure you have mtv branded as a linux binary. i was able to get mtvp working after some hacking of the libs cause mine was linked against both libc versions, but mtv doesnt work for me because stable in SMP mode doesnt support one of the linux calls. it has something to do with fork() and sharing mem between the 2 processes, i dont really recall the exact error off the top of my head. good luck jim On Wed, 12 Jan 2000, Brett Taylor wrote: > Hi, > > I originally sent this to -questions and haven't gotten a response so I > thought I'd try multimedia... > > I'm trying to get a mpeg player that can play audio as well as video. > I found mtv at www.mpegtv.com.
