I tried "mplayer -ao oss" and as you said, I got no sound, so is this artsd the problem then? If so can I "kill" it? One other quick note, if I play a file with mplayer and close it I can no longer see what I type in the terminal window which I used to open mplayer. Another issue is that when i minimise mplayer the last frame of the video stays on top of everything else and until it is closed I cant see anything behind it (i.e. I have a big square on top of my desktop). - BiZKiT >From: Jason Andresen <jandrese@mitre.org> >To: Rhys John <elite_bizkit@hotmail.com> >Subject: Re: mplayer keeps screwing my system :( >Date: Wed, 18 Dec 2002 13:06:02 -0500 > >Rhys John wrote: >>Mplayer is fine, it playes mpegs and I get sound, but no other multimedia >>application can.
