MPlayerWii - Native MPlayer port for the Wii

I don't understand.
If you share your dvd you'll have to give a shared name, for example dvd so, supposing you pc ipaddress is 192.168.1.2 you can access to your dvd using:
stream = smb://192.168.1.2/dvd/

what am I missing?

I've got it set up and working good, I was just wondering about the progress of samba root support. Its streaming fine as long as the videos are in a folder on the DVD.

Also, I have streamed several more TV and DVD avi's without a glitch. Thanks again, nice work.

Do you have source for this? Thanks.

Also, have you worked out how to compile mplayer yet?

Yes, but don't worry i'll check in on monday o svn.
The problem is that you need to modify libtinysmb with a little change that I've done.(http://www.entuwii.net/foro/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=92)
And Trantic is improving samba, so I want to extend smb devoptab with his changes (NTLM)

Now, I'm vey busy at work and I can spend time figuring how to compile, I'll try to send a message to Chris to get a manual how to compile mplayer, but monday. I haven't internet at home.

how do you add the auto detection, so it either returns to launcher or restart wii?
what's the code?

Fat32 file size limit is 4GB. So are we limited to the 4GB size for video playback? For example I have a 8gb thumb drive but I can't put HD .mkv files on it because of the file size limit.

As well DL dvd's are not recognized as I am aware of so again we are limited to 4.7gb on a dvd.

I hope I am talking out of my ass here and someone can point me in the right direction. solutions?

BTW I love this app. its given my wii a new lease on life. Keep up the good work.

You can see at the end of main function

The limit is in the file size not in the partition.
So you can use a 500Gb usb hard drive (some usb devices doesn't works properly) but the max file size of the avi is 4Gb

As well DL dvd's are not recognized as I am aware of so again we are limited to 4.7gb on a dvd.

I think is a libdi limitation, not sure if is a dvdx limitation, I only test single layer.

Hi guys,

I've been experimenting with the wrapper code of mplayerwii and after adding some stuff that didn't work, I've removed everything and brought the makefile and template.c back to their original states. Recompiling doesn't work and even if I download the original source files and replace everything with the original ones I still get the following error:

gx_supp.c
lwiso9660_devoptab.c
smb_devoptab.c
template.c
linking ... mplayerwii-read-only.elf
/opt/devkitpro/devkitPPC/lib/gcc/powerpc-gekko/4.2.3/../../../../powerpc-gekko/lib/crtmain.o: In function `__crtmain':
/Users/Wintermute/projects/devkitpro/buildscripts/newlib-1.16.0/libgloss/rs6000/crtmain.c:18: undefined reference to `main'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [/Users/catwoe/mplayerwii-read-only/mplayerwii-read-only.elf] Error 1
make: *** [build] Error 2

I've been trying to find out what could be wrong but as it would be something with the makefile and the order of the libraries, everything is in place according to the order in the original Makefile of mplayerwii. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
