Hi!
I am looking for a console based movie player similar to mplayer. I'm running Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger) and facing problems in compiling mplayer on my system.
I googled for an alternative solution but couldn't find anything useful. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You can use mplayer with DirectFB on the console. mplayer has to be compiled with DirectFB support though. Are the mplayer packages referred to by other posters on this thread compiled with DirectFB support?
Of course, DirectFB is not a necessity. I've had problems with svga though.
