Re: madplay on ARM926EJ-S versatile board



Hi,

Thanks for your replies Riku Voipio and Catalin
Marinas.

Forgive me for my ignorance, as I am new to Debian.

The base.cramfs provided by ARM has the madplay binary
and I was able to play mp3s.

I am now trying to use a movie player on this
versatile ARM926EJ-S board.
 
I'd appreciate a step-by-step howto cross-compiling
ffmpeg or any other movie player for this board.
 
This is the what I tried:

Yes, I used the pre-built base.cramfs provided at:

http://www.arm.com/linux/linux_download.html

As far as creating a new cramfs and adding files,
there is no problem. I have tried it using:

mount -o loop -t cramfs <image> <mount point>
cp -r <mount point> <new directory>
mkcramfs <new directory> <image name>

I don't mind even if you can just send me a statically
compiled movie player that can run on this board. 

Thanks again,

K Shakthi
