Although this is certainly a driver bug, it's easy to consistently trigger. I've bolded the line that causes it. Save the following into ~/.mplayer/config and play a video.

Code:
vo = xv:ck=set
colorkey = 0
fs = yes
ao = pulse
alang = en
framedrop = "1"
autoq = "100"
cache = "8192"
quiet = "1"
really-quiet = "1"
There you go :D

it's not a code it's a configuration for mplayer...
well ok first install mplayer after installation open xterm and type

vi ~/.mplayer/config

press i once then paste this

Quote:
vo = xv:ck=set
colorkey = 0
fs = yes
ao = pulse
alang = en
framedrop = "1"
autoq = "100"
cache = "8192"
quiet = "1"
really-quiet = "1"
then run any video using mplayer by issuing a command like

mplayer <video filename>

Asking anyone to read a vi manual is ridiculous enough to me. Sane people should just learn to use vi by randomly hitting the keys. :D (j/k)

@pedrocoba if you want a similar effect without having to learn to edit a text file, you could use the live wallpaper. Just choose to play video as wallpaper in the live wallpaper setting.

Sane people (like me) use nano!

I've tried it continues to Stay There are no desktop effects on the N900 I? What else should I do?

I am confused to run myvideo effect

I've input this command "mplayer / home/user/MyDocs/.videos/myvideo.mp4" in Xterminal, did not happen anything.


BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-1osso30+0m5) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

~ $ mplayer /home/user/MyDocs/.videos/myvideo.mp4
~ $

:( :(

asking for a complete tutorial (for noobs) to tweak up settings via xterm is ridiculous, giving such is at least a bit irresponsible.

Re: Nokia N900 Cool Effect
 
install Midnight Commander.

On Xterminal:
sudo gainroot
mc

then open .mplayer > config, paste the codes there then save.

Finally, play your video using Xterminal.

viola!

stare at the effects for 2 minutes then never do it again :)

Pros usually don't need complete tutorials only noobs do
especially when they have to to tweak up settings via terminal.

Can this thread please be merged?

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=74087

Also IIRC; This effect is caused by a video driver bug that only affects x11 programs, so not all windows (ie xterm) will show the playing image. you may also not see any change if you have a light coloured desktop wall paper.

I provided the most newbie friendly instruction so if you still don't understand what to do either learn basic linux or give up.

Wrong it should affect any program as long as the color matches the color offset you provide on config file.

If you want it to work on xterm change your xterm background to black and you'll see.

Download windows dreamscene from the repos :D

If its not there :rolleyes: follow the step by step, line by line details already given in this thread 3 times...

Re: Nokia N900 Cool Effect
 
So is this a Mplayer bug/feature ONLY? If it is a video driver bug shouldn't work with any and all media players? It is a cool effect! One which I would ony use to show off my device becuase it would probably kill the battery pretty fast. I use the Mplayer widget will it work with that?
and yes can someone merge the other topic about this effect.

Hi I installed this effect yesterday but today I noticed that when you change the theme other than nokia nseries contacts,setting and conversations the effect not working.Just as the desktop background.Do you have any observations

Did all of this, and I get "parse error at line 1" when I type mplayer file.avi

Re: Nokia N900 Cool Effect
 
@amadeukaos: Have you double/triple checked that what you have in ~/.mplayer/config is exactly the same as what's given above? And if you used a "Windows-based" editor make sure it saves files using "unix" line endings.
