#1 Does not play OGM or MKV files

[Anonymous]

OGM and MKV files are the hardest files to get to work
in windows, I recently found out about the MPlayer
windows port, and am glad that it flawlessly supports it!

However you're winamp plugin (Which is still AWSOME)
does not play these files and causes Winamp to crash
whenever I try.

It shouldn't be hard to do since MPlayer plays them
with very little configuration at all.

(These are the settings I use in my config file for
OGM/MKV files, but they also work for DVDs too)

sid=<Subtitle Number 0-?>
aid=<Audio Number 0-?>
subfont-autoscale=2 (best subtitle scale settings)

These setings could be easily added into you're
configuration (Or perhaps into the GUI)

This flaw, and the inability to use MPlayer Codec packs
is the only thing keeping me from using this as my main
player.

P.S. Ohh, and it would be a nice feature if you could
add special comands in the configuration (Like other
MPlayer frontends)

maybe the formats you are tring to play are only supported
in the newest version of mplayer 1.0pre5. not sure.
in_mplayer currently uses 1.0pre4.
if not then it's probably cause of the settings you listed
needed by the mplayer engine for these formats.

to use external binary codecs put don't try putting them
into a codecs subfolder of winamps plugin folder, instead
put them into your windows system folder. it works.

further development is definitely needed for this very fine
plugin.
i for myself will try to get going with the code.
ron, please don't let us down :)
& of course thank you very much for this REAL video plugin
for winamp.
