Bug 126201 – media-video/mplayer-bin loads codecs from wrong path

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Sebastian Siewior 2006-03-14 11:40:16 UTC]

Can not play wmv videos:

Win32 LoadLibrary failed to load: wmv9dmod.dll, /usr/lib/win32/wmv9dmod.dll, /usr/local/lib/win32/wmv9dmod.dll
IMediaObject ERROR: 0x857f4ee  could not open DMO DLL (0x0 : 0)


The problem is 64bit specific. I merged

media-libs/win32codecs-20050412
media-video/mplayer-bin-1.0.20060217

for watching crappy wmv files on amd64. win32codec files are in
/usr/lib32/[real|win32/ what is correct. mplayer-bin is looking for them in
/usr/lib what points to lib64. 

A workaround might be:

# ln -sv /usr/lib32/win32/ /usr/lib
create symbolic link `/usr/lib/win32' to `/usr/lib32/win32/'
#

Please recompile mplayer-bin with correct path info.
