the application in topic works nicely here, the lockups using X in 16 bit are related to #4518 and they disappear disabling dri, so I believe it should be tagged ppc
Last I tried this exact version it was badly broken, none of the GUI elements worked properly, it only played from command line on ppc. Can you please double check this aspect works? i.e. the play button, the list loading,etc did nothing,a nd some buttons even segfaulted.
the gui is still preliminary in mplayer and not compiled by default in their source tarball, should we care about the gui atm?

I added ppc to keywords, but IMHO it's not ready for ppc. It caused many problems on my system, and in fact worked for less than half of the 'supported' codecs
which are the codecs not working for you? All sort of mpegs works nicely here (divx too). Newer realmedia doesn't work, but it works only with the binary codecs from rp8/realone on x86.
you are correct about the gui. i dont use the gui so i didnt notice it. but like Lapo said, the gui is preliminary. lots of the functions just give a message box saying, ``not implemented (yet)''. one thing of note is when the physical memory is nearly full, i get this wierd sound effect when playing dvd's. basically, it sounds like blitty-echo, like the sampling is getting messed up. it corrects itself after a few minutes time. -brady
