I'm having the same problem. I've put the .ax file in /usr/lib/win32, registed the key in ~/.mplayer/registry32 and then done: - # dshowserver -c CoreAVCDecoder.ax -s 1280x720 -g 09571a4b-f1fe-4c60-9760de6d310c7c31 -b 12 -f 0x34363248 -o 0x30323449 shm:/dshow_shm.(null) sem1:/dshow_sem1.(null) sem2:/dshow_sem2.(null) Opening device Called unk_IsDebuggerPresent len: 948 ProductVersion: 1.3.0.0 Decoder supports the following YUV formats: YUY2 IYUV YV12 I420 Decoder is capable of YUV output (flags 0x27) Setting fmt Starting Initialization is complete shm_open failed: No such file or directory Is dshowserver supposed to run in the background - using strace it says it's detached but I can't see it? I looked through the diff and can't find any options to enable CoreAVC in xine-lib... Must be missing something? Igor, can you point us to or translate a HOWTO?
