CCCP, as in the Combined Community Codec Pack, is a DirectShow codec pack. Which has no effect whatsoever on mplayer (or VLC) because it uses internal codecs. If you want to use the CCCP, you do not need mplayer. You should be able to use any DirectShow player, such as WMP, however we recommend using Media Player Classic (MPC, unrelated to Microsoft products) or ZoomPlayer which come with the pack itself.
If however you do want to use a mplayer build for windows, we have our own found here. mplayer is a command-line player, so you don't run it like normal players. You can make a shortcut and drag videos to the shortcut, which I believe works. Also there are a few nice frontends for it in win32, which would make it act more normally, such as MPUI. |

This works for me on MPlayer on the Mac. It only works on .mkv files though. If you want to change the audio on .ogm files you will need to what TheFluff says. |

I compiled my own MPlayer from an SVN build, but I have a problem...
The video won't play in its proper aspect ratio and changing the options has no effect. All videos are stretched to 16:9. Edit: None of the X11 drivers selectable work properly, one gives me the proper AR but no fullscreen, the other gives give me the wrong AR and fullscreen, the third simply doesn't work.

Try (in order, not all at the same time):
-monitoraspect <your monitor aspect ratio> -monitorpixelaspect 1 (or 0, read the manpage) -nokeepaspect -screenh <monitor resolution height in pixels> -screenw <monitor resolution width in pixels> -fstype (read the manpage for details) -vo gl2 (if you have it compiled in) -vo fbdev (if you have it compiled in and supported in the kernel)

I'm using Ubuntu Feisty and I'm having issues with Mplayer. The video is not as smooth as it is using CCCP under Windows. For example in Hayate no Gotoku episode 2 by Eclipse it's a little jerky when the numbers are scrolling by at around 11 seconds into the video. At around 28 seconds when it shows Nagi the video is not smooth either.
CPU utilization doesn't seem to be the issue here (C2D 3.0 ghz), and my HDDs are running DMA. If I use VLC the video is smooth, almost as good as MPC in Windows but VLC support for soft subs is just terrible. Any ideas? |

Some HD encodes crash my players
After considerable massaging, I've been able to configure our new Dell 640m laptop to play some, but not all, HD fansubs. In particular, the Arienai encodes of Hataraki Man play cleanly, but the Lunar encodes of Bartender do not. I've tried using both mplayer and xine to play the Bartender episodes, and both players crash about nine seconds after the file opens during the voice-over describing the theme of that week's episode.
I'm running a fully-updated version of Fedora Core 6. The laptop has an Intel 945GM video adapter, and I'm using a current release of the i810 driver from x.org which supports all the recent Intel adapters. I've added the following options to xorg.conf Code:
Options "VideoRam" "131072" Options "CacheLines" "1980" Running midentify against both files produces the following output: Spoiler for Hataraki Man:
Spoiler for Bartender:
They both have "video format" of avc1 and a video codec of ffh264. They differ in some respects -- the "demuxer" is "mov" (i.e., Quicktime) for Hataraki Man and "mkv" (Matroska) for Bartender. The audio formats are also different -- mp4a for Hataraki Man and mp3 for Bartender. While my knowledge of the ins-and-outs of encoding is somewhat limited, these minor differences don't seem to explain why one file plays correctly while the other causes both players to crash. I've spent a considerable amount of time searching the Internet to find the right tweaks to use the i945 card to its fullest. I'm pretty sure I've incorporated all the correct settings for both xorg.conf and the players themselves. The Hataraki Man episodes look terrific in this format, clearly superior to the Xvid re-encodes I made earlier using mencoder at the same 720p resolution. I just can't seem to figure out what it is about the Bartender encodes that crashes my players. My similarly re-encoded Xvid versions of the Bartender files do not cause this problem. They even play on my Cowon A2 media player that has DivX/Xvid support. It just seems to be the H.264 originals that don't work correctly. Any ideas?

I wish all people with questions about playback problems could include this much info... but you forgot one thing: MPlayer and Xine versions?
Also, can you include the error message when running MPlayer -v?

mplayer-1.0-0.72.20070325svn.lvn6 xine-0.99.4-10.lvn6 xine-lib-1.1.5-1.fc6 xine-lib-extras-1.1.5-1.fc6 xine-lib-extras-nonfree-1.1.5-1.lvn6 I install and update using "yum" so it manages all the dependencies for me. The dependency list for mplayer alone totals some 75 libraries. I've posted the complete verbose output from mplayer on a web server I maintain. For Bartender, the output is here. The corresponding output for Hataraki Man is here. I think the error in question is probably related to these: ds_fill_buffer: EOF reached (stream: audio) ds_fill_buffer: EOF reached (stream: video) I did some searching for these errors at Google, but it only turned up copies of the mplayer source code. I didn't really find anything all that helpful as an end-user. Thanks in advance, Fluff, for any help you can offer.

What I immediately think when I see those errors is "corrupted file". I'm assuming you did CRC-check the files?
If it's not that, there's not really anything that comes to mind immediately. Try doing a disk check, or see if your Matroska libraries are outdated and/or incorrectly installed.
