The latest testing version of mplayer (1.0_rc2_p26454-r2) crashes when I try to open a dvd or a file with ac3 audio. I have this problem on both my machines, one running x86 Gentoo, the other running amd64 Gentoo. Unfortunately the output of mplayer is on my language (Greek) and I don't know how to switch mplayer's output language so I'll try to translate the exact output referring to the crash: ---------------------------------------------------------- Open audio decoder: [liba52] AC3 decoding with liba52 Using SSE optimized IMDCT transform Mplayer was terminated by SIG 11 at module: init_audio_codec ---------------------------------------------------------- Sorry but I can't imagine what other information would possibly be helpful. Just ask for anything you may need. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE="a52" emerge =mplayer-1.0_rc2_p26454-r2 2. Try to open with mplayer a file or dvd with multichannel (5.1) audio. Note that usually is the main feature of a DVD the one with 5.1 audio. Thus mplayer won't crash during the menus or extras but only if you try the movie. Actual Results: mplayer crashes with: Open audio decoder: [liba52] AC3 decoding with liba52 Using SSE optimized IMDCT transform Mplayer was terminated by SIG 11 at module: init_audio_codec
I'm getting same error with: media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc2_p26753 media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc2_p26454-r2 Following version doesn't crash: media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc2_p26300-r1
