acOSX, Mplayer failing to render truetype fonts.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]<

 



I've been having persistent problem, and have decided to write in after
this persistedhrough a system upgrade.
I've been building mplayer from SVN,nd have freetype and fontconfig
installednd up to date. To make sure, I searched through the config log
and found it had properly detectedhem.

I'msing these lines in the config, and they're not throwing an "unknown
setting"rror which DID occur when I built mplayer before updating freetype
and fontconfig:

subfont-text-scale=10
subfont-autoscale=2
subfont-text-scale=5
subfont-blur=1.1
subfont-outline=1.2
subalign=2
subfont-encoding=unicode

Yet, I openny soft-subbed matroska file (fansubs) only to find the subfont
iseverting to the teenie-weenie default text.

This is highlynusual, as I have a secondary system which properly renders
theext, and I don't follow a different procedure in my installation
process.  Is it possible Icrewed up a setting somewhere in the main
system?

As Iaid before, I recently upgraded my system from an old PPC tower to a
macbook pro,nd used the system migration tool to transfer the files.
 Obviously whatever is causinghis mess was transferred with it, as the
problem fromhe old system is persisting here, but I went through and
rebuilt/installed freetype, fontconfig,nd various other related
dependenciesnd received no errors from mplayer on compile.

Anyway, if I could getome help diagnosing this cryptic issue it would be
great. I hopefullywait someone's input on this.

When playing back 1080p video on my Linuxystem, I get numerous "too
many video packets inhe buffer" console messages and the the a/v
can't maintainync.  This happens with both software decoding and
Nvidia VDPAU.  The following patch fixes it.  Canhis be changed by
default?
