Re: linux-kernel-headers foul-up
Well, I'm having serious problems with Mplayer, actually with mencoder
to be exact.
I have a load of automated 'vcr' recording scripts.
These scripts have always worked and have given out the right kind of
files with the right kind of bitrate(given in the script) correct
timings, correct audio...and so...in short...perfectly fine mpeg 4
recordings.
Right now running one of those scripts, so it's not me making a command
mistake, result in an avi with the wrong bitrate, wrong
timing/length(not running for the total given time), utterly messed up
sound and so on.FUBAR.
This is with an mplayer/mencoder version compiled from CVS which worked
fine before this header stuff came along last friday, last time i did a
compile of the mplayer source was about 2 weeks ago.
So mencoder does run, but it has become useless. So apart from compile
time this whole thing also messes up at least some already compiled
programms.
Cheerios

The original poster mentioned both mplayer and xawtv breakage, both i
use because the server(mplayer self compiled)acts as a vcr aswell. Does
this mean i should not recompile either one and leave them as is?
