Bug 709382 – media-video/smplayer-19.10.2 with media-video/mpv-0.32.0 : vo/ao driver list in GUI preferences has compatibility issue

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description giskard 2020-02-12 13:43:58 UTC]

after update mpv from 0.31.0 to 0.32.0, the preference option list in smplayer for vo and ao become unusable.

After some check, found that this is caused by mpv update, 'mpv --vo help' does not work anymore (the option should be "--vo=help" instead), for compatability, the source code of smplayer need to be updated:

smplayer-19.10.2/src/inforeadermpv.cpp
47:	vo_list = getList(run("--vo help"));



Reproducible: Always

I've created a 9999 ebuild in the FireBurn overlay until a fix or new release comes out

I notice 20.4.2 has been released

[Comment 5 Mike Lothian 2020-04-24 09:59:00 UTC]

Renaming the 19.10.2 ebuild to 20.4.2 works fine here, added to my overlay for convenience until this lands in ::gentoo

this has been fixed with media-video/smplayer-20.4.2, thus can be closed.
