MPlayer on IRIX
In here you will find the latest MPlayer CVS builds done with a GCC 3.4.0 from CVS as well. All non-IRIX base-OS libraries are linked static into the binary. The RealPlayer codecs don't work well at the moment (2-5 seconds of fun till crash). If you dare to use them you have to place them into /opt/MPlayer/codecs/.
Default is OpenGL2 but you can change that by editing the mplayer.conf file in /opt/MPlayer/etc/mplayer/ or give the desired video-out as a command line option:
$ mplayer -vo x11 video.mov $ mplayer -vo gl -vf format=rgb24 video.mov $ mplayer -vo sdl video.mov
If you want to extract frames into single files you can do so too:
$ mplayer -vo png video.mov
Audio extraction works like this:
$ mplayer -vo null -vc dummy -ao pcm video.mov
Lately I added two MIPSpro builds of mplayer using the patches from Timo. Sadly the MIPSPro build doesn't give a whooping performance increase but just some anoying problems with WM audio. They are still kept here to give you an impression about the code quality of mplayer.
Below you will find a few of the files I use to test each build on its functionality. Most of them are broken files or triggering broken codecs or are full of other strange things. I left out the big files because of webspace reasons. On my local drive I have a lot more of them. Please don't waste a single thought about the content of the files.

ATTENTION!
The file MPlayer-1.0pre5.tardist is not a result of my work on CVS GCC and CVS MPlayer. It is the current branch of a highly SGI optimized MPlayer version with native support of certain SGI gfx features. It comes as a mips3 and a mips4 build and has new videoout modules. XMPlayer2 uses the new video-out module of that MPlayer version.
