There is some hope for tearsync. You can check the last fanoush's posts in this thread.

Also, without the overhead of decoding, what type of performance could we see. Im wondering basically how a native framebuffer/raw or likes video would perform on the little guy. The reason is I' curious if a decoding solution streaming between the HD or LAN and IT would affect things if in a 'more' native format.
This might be interesting to investigate, but we need to ensure some reliable and fast method to stream lots of data to the device. Bluetooth is too slow, wifi is not very fast either, in addition, wifi is quite unstable on my Nokia 770 device and results in various bugs.

May be it is a problem with that particular file???

Any way how do you skip 10 minutes...... when i press that icon which comes after pressing the menu..... nothing happpens.... am i missing something???
Most likely this divx file is incomplete (partially downloaded) and missing index. It is possible to rebuild index automatically, but this feature is not working properly because of toolchain/compilation related problems: https://garage.maemo.org/tracker/ind...id=54&atid=269

The next build of mplayer will use upgraded toolchain, probably it will resolve the problem.

I have enabled jpeg and png output codecs in SVN, the next mplayer build will have them supported.

And thanks a lot for starting development of an advanced gui frontend, maybe we will be able to get rid of the current placeholder gui eventually.

Can you consider adding the video out of jpeg (or gif ... or png) as well? If it doesn't add too much to the binary size?

I have a new 770 with OS 2006 and have been looking through this and other threads, trying different methods to stream .flv to MPlayer. Downloading and playing .flv works great, but I have not had much success playing .flv directly from YouTube without fully downloading first.

I followed the instructions here:

Nickster's Opera Mplayer setup, but I chaged runmplayer to contain:

Code:
#!/bin/sh

/usr/bin/mplayer -fs -framedrop -vo x11 -ao gst -ac dspmp3 -cache 800 "$1"
Then I added this [File Type] to opera.ini:

Code:
video/flv=7,/usr/bin/runmplayer,,runmplayer,flv,|
With these settings, I managed to get a couple videos to play in MPlayer by clicking the .flv link in Opera, but the playback was very jerky. Downloaded files play smoothly. I don't think it's a network speed issue, because when I download .flv files they seem to download faster than real time. I thought changing the "-cache 800" value might help, but I didn't have any luck. Videos were still equally jerky or didn't play at all.

Also, I tested a few dozen other .flv links from Youtube and none of them even started to play. Why do many .flv links refuse to even start MPlayer?

Does anyone have suggestions to change my settings above to get more consistent and smooth streaming playback of .flv videos from the internet? Or is that goal beyond the limits of the Nokia 770/Opera/MPlayer?


Also a related question, when I add File Types to the opera.ini the setting below will always try to directly open and start playing MPlayer. Is there a way to modify this line, so I can see a "Save or Open?" dialog when clicking .flv file links? Otherwise, I have to go in and change the opera.ini everytime I want to switch from streaming to downloading.

Code:
video/flv=7,/usr/bin/runmplayer,,runmplayer,flv,|
By the way, I have tried orb streaming, but I would prefer to be able to stream .flv directly to my 770 with as close to the quality of playback of a downloaded .flv as possible.

Have you tested uktube?

Next version, which is ready, but I haven't launched it yet, includes support for streaming of youtube clips as well. I'll try to get it out today.

Thanks, I have read about uktube, but I don't have enough space for Python yet. I'm waiting for my new MMC card to arrive. I will definitely give it a try then.

I would still like to know if anyone has suggestions for improving streaming with the approach I was trying above.

Have you done any benchmark tests with latest firmware? Does it improve video playback?

Hello.

ie synced manually to the video throught the menü of mplayer.

just wanted to ask: isn't that feature implemented, or this does not only work
