Hi,

gnome-mplayer is totally awesome, but I cant get it to work properly on
FreeBSD. It would be really cool if there would be a FreeBSD Port.

Original issue reported on code.google.com by army.of....@gmail.com on 14 Nov 2008 at 10:52

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Details please. The code should compile on FreeBSD without much effort.

Might try disabling Alpha Substation Subtitle support in the Preferences and 
see if
that helps.. if not run this from the command line

/usr/local/bin/mplayer -profile gnome-mplayer -slave -identify -framedrop

I mean, the mplayer line works, it plays fine and even shows the subtitles :)

Hum, I'm kinda stumped on it... perhaps try x11 as the vo? Maybe xv doesn't 
like to
be embedded?

Original comment by kdeko...@gmail.com on 15 Nov 2008 at 4:30

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
X11 and gl as vo doesn't do it, same thing (gui starts up and does nothing)
Do some files have to be at special places (mplayer profile)? Im running it in 
some
temp folder.

No I don;t think the location matters, as I run it out of the SVN directory, 
what I
think is going in, is that the secondary g_mutex_lock in launch_player 
(thread.c) at
line 931 is not locking and the code is going right thru. Can you do some 
research
and see if there are any issues with g_mutex_lock on freebsd?

I really would like to help, but i have no idea of gtk stuff and c at all.
Is there maybe a hacky workaroud, just to look if thats the problem ?

Original comment by army.of....@gmail.com on 15 Nov 2008 at 5:03

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Can you retest with SVN and the --reallyverbose option, I added some more 
debugging
around the locks to see if that was the problem. Also can you make sure that 
your
glib is compiled with thread (pthread?) support. It should be, but just 
something to
check.

How do i check if glib has thread support?

The Makefile
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/devel/glib20/Makefile?rev=1.153) 
in the
FreeBSD Portstree looks like it has.

The more I look at your logs it looks like mplayer just is not starting... 
In your above log you see the 'send command = seek 0 0' and right after that you
should see mplayer data coming out...  like below. perhaps you should try 
upgrading
mplayer?

Also it appears you are using a 'custom' mplayer command. Can you try removing 
that
out of the preferences and adding /usr/local/bin to the path.

Original comment by kdeko...@gmail.com on 16 Nov 2008 at 3:41

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Hm, mplayer is in PATH. No matter what i put in the mplayer cmd field in the
settings, it doesn't work.

I replaced line 714 to 718 in thread.c with:

    argv[arg++] = g_strdup_printf("xterm");
    argv[arg++] = g_strdup_printf("-e");
    argv[arg++] = g_strdup_printf("mplayer");

and now it opens a xterm, in which mplayer is actually running and in the
gnome-mplayer window there is a VERY small video playing, sound works, the 
controls
aren't

Original comment by army.of....@gmail.com on 16 Nov 2008 at 4:03

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Yes in that situation the controls won't work due to the slave interface being
blocked use to the usage of xterm. 

I'm not sure what this is telling me, as I never has seen this issue before. I 
don't
have a FreeBSD machine, so I can't really help debug it either. Again I would 
suggest
upgrading mplayer to a more recent version.

I just recompiles mplayer, should be really new now.
#> mplayer -v
MPlayer 1.0rc2-4.2.1 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team

Do some options need to be activeted ?

Can we capture the stdout and stderr of mplayer somehow?

Original comment by army.of....@gmail.com on 16 Nov 2008 at 8:03

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
mplayer 1.0rc2 is very old, about 14months. I would recommend that you get 
mplayer
from SVN. The mplayer project is not doing releases right now and they recommend
using SVN.

The --reallyverbose option captures and prints all the output from mplayer.

Well I'm stuck, I have no idea why mplayer won't start under gnome-mplayer

Any errors in the logs? I run this app 10 to 100 times a day and have never 
seen this
issue other than in this bug report.

So, the problematic code part is:

    GError *error;
    gchar *dirname = NULL;
    gchar *filename = NULL;
    gchar *basepath = NULL;
    gint exit_status;
    gchar *stdout = NULL;
    gchar *stderr = NULL;
    gchar *av[255];
    gint ac = 0;

This code is faulty since stdin/stdout/stderr on *BSD systems are macros and
therefore will mess up this declaration.

root# egrep 'stdout|stderr' /usr/include/stdio.h    
#define stdout  (&__sF[1])
#define stderr  (&__sF[2])
#define putchar(x)      putc(x, stdout)
#define putchar_unlocked(c)     putc_unlocked(c, stdout)

Because of this wrong behavior, gnome-mplayer is unable to catch mplayer output 
on
*BSD systems.

Best Regards,
David

Those assertions are nothing to worry about, but I have fixed in in SVN. I 
don't get
them on Linux so that is weird. 

I also looked at the ktrace and it looks like mplayer is just exiting as it 
reaching
the end of the file.

I assume that this command works fine for you..

so back to the original problem... mplayer never seems to start when playing the
video.. however we know it is being spawned correctly earlier since we know the
correct window size. Seems to have something to do with the 
g_spawn_async_with_pipes
call. For some reason the BSDs are not working. The lack of debug information is
frustrating since there should be way more information coming out. Are there any
system message or anything else?

I installed FreeBSD 7 on a VM on one of my machines and I am able to duplicate 
the
problem, however it appears that g_mutex_lock which maps to pthread_mutex_lock 
is
configured to not block on the secondary lock. So far I have not found a way to
change this behavior. I think the -D_REENTRANT flag in gthread-2.0.pc file 
might have
something to do with it, since this flag is not defined on linux, but just may 
be a
guess. I have removed that flag out of the .pc and found that it does change the
behavior but does not fix the root problem.

Yeah, ok I found a solution for this. I coded it up in gnome-mplayer and tested 
on
FreeBSD 7 and committed it to SVN. It turns out that the BSDs use recursive 
locks so
that rather than blocking on the second lock it just increments a counter and 
moves
along. So I switch the code to emit a signal when mplayer is done and also to 
catch
this signal in the code and move along as needed.

So please test, but I believe this should work properly now.

Yes! Confirmed to work on openbsd too. Great!
Are you planning to make a new release? I'd like to have it in the official 
openbsd
ports tree.

cheers

Other two problems related to playlist. I don't know if it happens only on *bsd 
or on
linux too... 

Even if under Preferences I've set "Start with playlist visible", it starts 
without
playlist.

If I press "ctrl+l", sometimes the playlist shows up correctly, sometimes the 
window
changes size but the playlist doesn't appear.
