Description Stefan Briesenick (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-14 17:49:14 UTC
new version is out since now :) 2004-07-15

but watch out, there're some new features, which want to be supported in the ebuild. So don't version bump only, but check / extend the old ebuild.

here're some quotes from the MPlayer Homepage:

"Highlights of this release include improved Mac OS X and Windows support, improved seeking in Real files, better MEncoder documentation with an updated DVD ripping guide, streaming related bug fixes, fullscreen bug fixes, a new unified ao_alsa ALSA audio output driver to replace ao_alsa9 and ao_alsa1x, a JACK audio output driver and new icons for the GUI and menus. Of course we also did the usual stuff like support for more codecs, new video filters and bug fixes all over the place."

furthermore:

"The codec packages have been updated and they now sport version numbers so you can easily tell whether you have the latest one or not. Grab them if you are interested in complete codec support."


Reproducible: Always
