Wunderbar98 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Thank-you RamonUn for providing these builds. Most Windows 9x users won't be able to download from mega.nz natively without using another system. I tried one of your previous builds and it did not run in vanilla Windows 98. Will try again someday, it may have just been my configuration. Take care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamonUn Posted January 14, 2021 Author Share Posted January 14, 2021 Builds are now available here https://github.com/RamonUnch/MPlayer-Ringo-builds/releases You need the latest DirectX for Win98, try also with different -vo and -ao drivers. try -vo gl/directx/direct3d/sdl -ao win32/dsound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wunderbar98 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Thanks for the github link RamonUn. Unfortunately still didn't work, tested numerous variations, known working mp4 file, system otherwise works fine using Windows 98 ere SMPlayer/MPlayer. For me no big, happy using an old version of MPlayer, just wanted to point out in case others have issues too. Examples trialed: mplayer nhL.mp4 -vo sdl -nosound mplayer nhL.mp4 -vo directx -nosound mplayer nhL.mp4 -vo direct3d -nosound mplayer nhL.mp4 -vo gl -nosound mplayer nhL.mp4 -vo gl/directx/direct3d/sdl -nosound COMMAND.COM output: MPlayer Ringo 2021-01-08 (ffmpeg N-100581-ga454a0c) (C) 2000-2021 MPlayer Team Playing nhL.mp4. libavformat version 58.65.101 (internal) libavformat file format detected. [mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 014036c0]Protocol name not provided, cannot determin if input is local or a network protocol, buffers and access patterns cannot be configured optimally without knowing the protocol MPlayer interrupted by signal 8 in module: demux_open - MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM. Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash. - MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen. It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamonUn Posted January 17, 2021 Author Share Posted January 17, 2021 OK i see. Do you have the same when using -vo null -nosound If you do, then the problem may be your msvcrt.dll, take the original from your Win98SE disk and put it in mplayer's directory. Try also with the original SDL 1.2.15 from sld's website. https://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL-1.2.15-win32.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wunderbar98 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Hi RamonUn. Still no success using full pathways, null sound and null video. Tried Windows 98 CD msvcrt.dll and your linked SDL.dll - together and separate combos. All same error output as earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamonUn Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 If it happens even with vo null then I really do not see what could possibly the problem. What is your CPU? Are you using Win98SE or just Win98? I just could test on 98SE and ME Actually Have you tried with version 1.4 (stable) too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wunderbar98 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) Hi RamonUn. Tested this compile too, unfortunately no success: MPlayer Ringo 1.4 ffmpeg 4.1 gcc-8.1.0 (C) 2000-2019 MPlayer Team Using Windows 98 SE, AMD Athlon 800 MHz, NVIDIA GeForce2 MX 100/200. The MPLAYER.EXE usually used here in Windows 98 is pasted below, which elaborates CPU and a compile option if it helps. MPlayer Sherpya-SVN-r28311-4.2.5 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) Processor (Family: 6, Model: 4, Stepping: 2) CPUflags: MMX: 1 MMX2: 1 3DNow: 1 3DNow2: 1 SSE: 0 SSE2: 0 Compiled with runtime CPU detection. Edit: No success with exact same error message pasted in earlier post. Edited January 19, 2021 by Wunderbar98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergiaws Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 There are URLs which requires login information. These URLs don't work under WMP11 or older. I'm wondering if any Windows 9x/XP music players support these kind of URLs. I suggest to add support for these kind of URLs on this project if it support URL's streaming.

pangoomis Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Try such URLs with XMPlay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergiaws Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 That program isn't usable with a screen reader, so I can't use it. Just can modify the initial configuration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergiaws Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I managed to open such lincs in WinXP with VLC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice to add this support. unfortunately I have little time for this project and the only thing I did was actually to build a minimal MPlayer that runs on 98SE. I never actually tried anything URL related. For XP if you want more features there are other builds around that you may try. Also VLC is quite good decent for XP. Could you give me some examples of such URLs so that I have something to work with when I get more time to work on this project? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember that some builds of MPlayer were not functional when having a SSE1 only able cpu, In theory CPU autodetect should be the best but we will see.

RamonUn Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 @Wunderbar98 Try one of those builds. https://github.com/RamonUnch/MPlayer-Ringo-builds/releases/download/v14alt/MPlayer1.4_altbuilds.7z The one with a1 and a2 suffixes correspond to builds that "should" be optimized for athlon. If they does not work try the one wi the nosimd suffix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
