MPlayer - The Movie Player SVN-r38326-4.7.4

This RISC OS version was created using the GCCSDK Autobuilder

See the "doc" subdirectory for more documentation or the official mplayer
website at http://www.mplayerhq.hu

Getting Started
---------------
The !MPlayer folder needs to be seen by the filer for the filetype association
to be set. This being 'AVI'. Alternatively just double-click the !MPlayer
folder.
The filetype of the file you want to play in !MPlayer needs to be set to 'AVI'.
As long a !MPlayer recognises the file it doesn't matter what the filetype is
set to as long as it is 'AVI'.
If nothing happens when you double-click a file try looking at the 'mplayer/log'
file in the !MPlayer folder. This may give a clue to the problem.
From version 1.01 it is possible to play audio streams. See the example
'mplayacc' Obey file in the !Mplayer folder.

Issues
------
Its slow. But what did you expect. What it will do is make a passable attempt at
playing any file you throw at it without collapsing in a heap.

If you find a file that doesn't play feel free to contact me on the email
address below. It may be the required library is not linked into the executable.

There seems to be a problem with sound and having alignment exceptions turned on
with ARMv7+.
If nothing happens when you double-click on a file try turning alignment exceptions off.

Faster Version
------------
There is a test version available compiled with GCC 8.2.0. This allows all the ARM
specific optimisations to be enabled. It is now possible to play 720p Youtube videos
on Titanium and IGEPv5. If you'd like to try this version it can be downloaded from

For best results run on a Raspberry Pi 400 @2400MHz.
