This page is about the MPlayer port created by [[Team Twiizers]] to demonstrate the capabilities of [[DVDx]].  Since its initial release and apparent abandonment by Twiizers, the community has been treated to a few releases of unofficial binaries built on slight modifications to the codebase thanks to other independent coders.  For the ''other'' two ports of MPlayer intended to be used with multiple audio and video formats in a wide range of popular codecs and containers, see [[MPlayer CE]] and [[MPlayerWii]].
This is a native [[http://www.mplayerhq.hu/ MPlayer]] Wii port. The main focus has been DVD-Video playback on modified and unmodified consoles. Although you can open and view various media files from SD card, this is largely untested. At this time it can not read files off data DVD's, just DVD-Video discs. For the ''other'' two ports of MPlayer intended to be used with multiple audio and video formats in a wide range of popular codecs and containers, see [[MPlayer CE Wii]] and [[MPlayerWii]].

This is a native [MPlayer] Wii port. The main focus has been DVD-Video playback on modified and unmodified consoles. Although you can open and view various media files from SD card, this is largely untested. At this time it can not read files off data DVD's, just DVD-Video discs. For the other two ports of MPlayer intended to be used with multiple audio and video formats in a wide range of popular codecs and containers, see MPlayer CE Wii and MPlayerWii.

Requirements

This application requires a valid and working DVDX stub install, please refer to its README for setup instructions.

A DVD-Video disc, either pressed or with the DVD-ROM booktype, might also come in handy.

How To Install

Just copy the "mplayer" folder into the "/apps" directory on your sd card and launch it via the [HBC].

Using

When launching this application you will be presented by a basic on screen menu. Though all options should be self-explanatory, here are some hints:

  • High bitrate video streams may lead to dropped frames. This really depends on the used DVD-Video. Some fullscreen movies seem to have the same issue.
  • Hiding the menu and disabling subtitles improves the performace a little.
  • Playing DVDs with libdvdnav is buggy and decreases performace (read: way more dropped frames)
  • Choosing a DTS audio track results in noise and breaks things.
  • Choosing non-playable files from SD makes it crash & burn.
  • Know the amount of DVD tracks in your DVD beforehand. If you try to skip ahead a track when you're on your last track, your Wii will freeze for roughly 10 minutes.

Controls

You can use a wiimote or a gamecube pad to interact:

  • A - Pause
  • B - OSD
  • 1/X - Toggle on screen menu
  • RIGHT - Seek 10s forward
  • LEFT - Seek 10s backward
  • UP - Seek 60s forward
  • DOWN - Seek 60s backward
  • +/R - Seek to the next chapter
  • -/L - Seek to the previous chapter
  • HOME/Z - Quit

When watching DVD's using libdvdnav:

  • 2/Y - Modifier key for libdvdnav

Hold this key and use RIGHT / LEFT / UP / DOWN / A / B / 1/X to navigate.

Changes

Improvements revision 27458

  • Attractive interface.
  • File Browser.
  • Possibility of playing multiple multimedia formats through the front SD of the Wii. For this it is not necessary to install the dvdLib library.
  • Possibility of playing DVD videos thanks to the dvdLib library. In order to use this option you must install the .

Credits

This port was made possible by the following people:

  • dvdlib - Erant

  • libdvdcss port - svpe
  • mplayer port - dhewg
  • 12 stage TEV YUV12 GX voodoo - sepp256
  • menu loop animation - drmr
