Still can't get mplayer to play Car Talk!
As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm using the current unstable
version of mplayer-k6 from ftp.nerim.net and all the relevant packages.
When I try to play Car Talk with mplayer, it caches but then dies with
this error:
Clip info:

==========================================================================
Trying to force audio codec driver family libmad...
Cannot find codec for audio format 0x6B6F6F63.
Read DOCS/HTML/en/codecs.html!
==========================================================================
Audio: no sound
Video: no video
Exiting... (End of file)
My /etc/mplayer/codecs.conf contains the following lines:
audiocodec racook
info "RealAudio COOK"
status working
format 0x6B6F6F63 ; "cook"
driver realaud
dll "cook.so.6.0"
audiocodec racookwin
info "Win32 RealAudio COOK"
status working
format 0x6B6F6F63 ; "cook"
driver realaud
dll "cook3260.dll"
audiocodec racookmac
info "Mac OS X RealAudio COOK"
status working
format 0x6B6F6F63 ; "cook"
driver realaud
dll "cook.shlb"
The cook.so.6.0 file exists on my system (/usr/lib/win32/cook.so.6.0:
ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), stripped)
but not the other two.
What do I have to do to get mplayer to find and use this codec?! (It
used to work and mysteriously stopped a few weeks ago.)
Thanks,
Adam
