gnome-mplayer won't work with mplayer-mt-git

[GoogleCodeExporter]

recently i switch to use mplayer-mt, but gnome-mplayer (svn 1741) won't work 
any more.

mplayer-mt-git source repo is: git://repo.or.cz/mplayer.git

and i compiled with libass support as mplayer-mt didn't contain libass. BTW of 
course i recompiled gnome-mplayer.

smplayer works fine with mplayer-mt.

the attach file is the log of gnome-mplayer. i don't know why it keep saying 
"is not a device name". if you need any other imformation plz tell me.

Can you run this command for me and post the output.

mplayer -vo null -ao null -nomsgcolor -nomsgmodule -frames 0 -noidx -identify 
-nocache -noidle -dvd-device /dev/dvd [FILENAME]

I'm guessing one of those options is not liked by mplayer-mt. Just need to find 
out which one. Might need to patch the code to make it work with mplayer-mt

i got this in command line:

MPlayer was compiled without libdvdread support.
MPlayer git-7a669a6-4.5.0 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team
154 audio & 339 video codecs
ID_EXIT=NONE

without "-dvd-device /dev/dvd", mplayer will work. i did not add anything like 
"--disable-dvdread" to the configure line to compile mplayer-mt. i guess 
mplayer-mt also did not contain this function and i have to recompile mplayer 
with libdvdread installed.

is this easy to solve with a patch or something(no need to recompile 
mplayer-mt)? 

BTW: can you put mplayer output into debug information? so that users can 
easily figure out what the matter is.

I think you'll have to ask the mplayer-mt people why that command doesn't work. 
That option is needed for playing DVD images from disk and selecting alternate 
DVD devices.

With a recent patch that output is displayed

The mt branch of mplayer has been moved to http://repo.or.cz/w/mplayer-build.git
I suggest you try that version, it also contain libass.
