Has anyone experience running mplayer on the N900? I installed mplayer and tried to watch movies, but mplayer crashes with the following error:
Anyone had the same error? How can I fix it?

Player Version is Mplayer SVN-r30099-4.2.1
I tried running it by typing "mplayer moviename.mp4" in the terminal while being in the directory where the movie is stored.

that's the current version all right.
can you try with different file, preferably simple avi?

I just tried with an avi file, as you recommended. I get the same error message. However I noted that i also get this error message, when I mistyped the filename so that the file did not even exist. That's pretty strange isnt it?

You type "mplayer filename.extenstion" to run it.
