Description Julien TIERNY 2004-05-06 10:16:52 UTC
Since I upgraded mplayer on my box from the 0.92-r1 to the 1.0_pre4 version, I cannot watch pictures in framebuffer mode:

"$ mplayer -ao alsa -vo fbdev (...) my_movie.ogm"

this command actually plays my movie but some colours are interverted : for example, things that should appear in yellow, do in blue.

it seems that no warning message is displayed is the traces, except this one:
"No accelerated colorspace conversion found"

I guess I should have posted that message on the MPlayer bugzilla but I wanted to keep the Gentoo team informed.

see ya all, great job, julien

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.$ mplayer -ao null -vo fbdev my_movie.ogm
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The movie is displayed but some particular colours are interverted : for 
example yellow & blue? (black & white remain ok) 

Expected Results:  
Played the movie with the expected colours 

my USE variable (nearly unchanged since the installation of the box): 
 
USE="qt kde -gtk -gnome usb dvd xmms jpeg X oggvorbis arts fbcon directfb 
alsa"

Julien,
Don't spose you've come across a fix upstream?
Comment 2 Julien TIERNY 2004-06-29 03:01:36 UTC
oops the bug report is quite old.
I didn't expect answers from Gentoo QA team anymore :)

I cannot remember if I posted a bug report on MPlayer's bugzilla.
I would guess I didn't because I assume Gentoo boys benefit from support from the MPlayer team.
Am I wrong ?

If it's not the case, I will see directly with the MPlayer team.
thx, julien

Hi there,

	I recently built the mplayer-1.0_pre5-r2 ebuild to check if the bug I submitted was still unfixed.
	The "fbdev" output driver now behaves nicely :)
	I tried it with diffrent codecs and think we can close this bug now.

	NOTA: 
	~~~~
	The author of the ebuild had used undefined USE flags, in particular "fbdev", line 251 and line 7 (IUSE declaration).
	This USE flag is not mentioned in the official online documentation (http://www.gentoo.org/dyn/use-index.xml). So the only existing workaround for a nominal user is to read the mentioned ebuild and to remark that the author used such a flag... which is not a nominal process ! 
	So either the USE documentation or the mentioned ebuild need to be fixed.

	Thank all of you for your great job
	julien

The USE flag has changed from fbdev to fbcon, which is a global USE flag.

Thanks for posting!
