Hi! Why does mplayerplug-in say it is quicktime 6? Mplayer supports quicktime 7 files and the new codec, and has for a year now. A lot of sites I go to now don't let me even try to watch the movie and instead gives me a link to apple.com/quicktime. When is that going to change? Thanks! -Steven |

Give me an example of the site you are having issues with and I'll see if that is the reason why it doesn't work.

I added 7 to the QT plugin decription so that passed the first test and the video started to load 2nd. The playlist file they send looks like this RTSPtestRTSP://video.zambooie.com/showdown/IscariotMV.mov So I had to make some changes to the RTSP parser, cause the is a screwy file. So I got it so that mplayer was passed RTSP://video.zambooie.com/showdown/IscariotMV.mov Which mplayer does not like cause the protocol is WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. RTSP should never be in CAPS. Working on the command line I changed it to mplayer rtsp://video.zambooie.com/showdown/IscariotMV.mov And mplayer STILL will not play the file... So as far as I am concerned. There is no point making anymore changes as the content on the site doesn't work anyway. I'll commit what I have to CVS, but it is not going to work and there seems to be no way to make it work. However, you could submit the mplayer errors to the mplayer mailing list and see if they will do anything. I have not had much luck with them so good luck.
