Description anlar 2004-11-08 11:25:49 UTC 
I couldn't get the WMV9 screen capture codec (the schools use it for recording teaching) working with mplayer even though I had the codec packs installed and all.

/usr/share/mplayer/codecs.conf
missed the lines:

videocodec wmsdmo
  info "Windows Screen Video DMO"
  status working
  fourcc MSS1
  fourcc MSS2
  driver dmo
  dll "wmsdmod.dll"
  guid 0x7bafb3b1, 0xd8f4, 0x4279, 0x92, 0x53, 0x27, 0xda, 0x42, 0x31, 0x08, 0x$
  out BGR32,BGR24,BGR16,BGR15

at least on my system. You might want to check the defaults that are defined in that file. (After getting the codecs too)

Nope, this doesn't show in the latest default MPlayer upstream codecs.conf.  And
this is a pure non-portage-touched source tree.
