Mplayer doesn't play this stream

[Automatic answer: RTFM (read DOCS, FAQ), also read DOCS/bugreports.html]
Hi I can't get mplayer 0.9 to play 
mms://wm.nvidia.na-regional.speedera.net/wm.nvidia.na-regional/fairy.wmv

xine plays it fine. Am I doing something wrong, or is it simply not working?

The source isn't interlaced... at least there are no visible horizontal
line artifacts around movement.  I just tried pp=lb anyways and there's
no difference that I can see. I think lavc is not coping well with the
movement and changes in light in this particular clip.

I'm interested in looking at your source material, but don't have read
access to mplayerhq ftp. Is there any way you can upload it to a public
server somewhere? If you're desperate, feel free to contact me off-list
and I'll set up a temporary account on my system that you can scp to. I
can't guarantee anything, but I haven't come across any material of
resolution similar to yours that I couldn't get great quality at
vbitrate=800, much less 1200.

Also, you can try posting to the ffmpeg-devel list:

I upgraded, but it did not help - see below.  The main error messages seem to 
be:
Cannot find codec for audio format 0x324D4451.
Cannot find codec matching selected -vo and video format 0x33515653.

Bug Report: Mplayer crash using DGA2 with Sorenson Video and a GeForce 2

[Automatic answer: RTFM (read DOCS, FAQ), also read DOCS/bugreports.html]
This was built using the most recent Gentoo ebuild and thus I had no 
control over configure or the make process, hence no debug output, 
sorry. It's fine using all other valid video drivers for my system. I'm 
also using the most recent nvidia X driver and the most recent ALSA 
drivers. I am using the most recent version of xfree86 as well.

The file in question is available online at

http://www.spoiler.nl/electrifying/movies/electrifying.mov

If you REALLY need the debug I'll do a download and hand build.

In other news, thanks for making the greatest media player I've come 
across, excellent work. I hope this bug report will help you continue to 
improve it.

Thanks,

Joe

These are ancient. Use the 0.90 release, please.

Type `gmplayer' in any terminal window or select MPlayer from your window
manager's applications menu.

For me under gentoo I just get an empty file from that link. It sits
trying to fill cache until I hit a key then it just thinks it's
finished.
