*** Bug 108708 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 2 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2005-10-10 06:06:22 UTC
I need a sample file, could you please report the issue upstream if it does
apply to the curren cvs version?
Comment 3 Miles Lubin 2005-10-10 13:25:41 UTC
I can't give you a sample file, as it would be a copyright violation, and I
don't know how to encode video into this format. This is not an upstream issue,
mplayer doesn't support mythtv nuv files, the mythtv USE flag applies a gentoo
patch.
Comment 4 Reimar Döffinger 2005-10-11 01:02:42 UTC
Please try upstream CVS. About half of gentoos mythtv patch was cleaned up and 
applied. The rest was too much of a mess to be integrated cleanly.
Comment 5 Reimar Döffinger 2005-10-11 03:46:22 UTC
Forgot to say: you can also use dd to extract only a small part of the file, 
that contains just a few frames (but check if it still shows the same problem).
When this works, it is always preferable to a full file.
My understanding is that this should also fall under some kind of fair-use rule 
and not cause a problem copyright wise. Depends of course on the country you're 
in etc.
Comment 6 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-09 23:08:20 UTC
Please test latest.
Comment 7 Miles Lubin 2006-05-04 19:42:36 UTC
Sorry for the long delay. I tested it with the latest mplayer and it seems to be working fine.
