I seem to have the same problem,I play .wmv files on KDE with sound but on Apple/trailers there's no sound.After leaving Apple I have no sound on my desk top and have to restart the sound-server with these errors:-On Thu, 27 Nov 2003 17:01:49 +0800, "Samuel AU" <runnersam@xxxxxxxxxxx> said:

You apparently don't have the use-gui flag in your mplayerplug-in.conf file (and everything else is commented out). So, the default behavior should take effect, which is "use-gui=no". If you want to make sure the plugin is not attempting to use gmplayer, you can add "use-gui=no" to the mplayerplug-in.conf file - it won't hurt anything. The only other difference my conf file has from yours is to make the plugin use Gnome's esd sound daemon (uncomment and set line to "ao=esd").
You can test to see if mplayer is properly streaming video by entering the following command at the shell prompt (Its the Daredevil trailer :-):
mplayer http://a772.g.akamai.net/5/772/51/20b9f288dddd83/1a1a1aaa2198c627970773d80669d84574a8d80d3cb12453c02589f25382f668c9329e0375e8177dec6493f758ca2f93f86ed743/daredevil-tlr_320.mov
That will confirm that mplayer can handle a QT video stream (as opposed to just playing a local file).

My mplayer can view the video that mentioned in the link. However, there is no sound at all. So, how can I fix it?
Cheers, Samuel

I have the same problem here with the sound. I used the apple trailers site for testing the plugin and don't get any sound. I have been to other sites that use quicktime and it does fine. So I don't know if it is just apples trailers or what. The windows media seems to always do ok.

Sound server warning message: tcp_connect: can't connect to server (tcp:reddwarf:35532)
Sound server warning message:
unix_connect: can't connect to server (unix:/tmp/mcop-david/reddwarf-7ddd-3fc597e5)
I would assume that mplayer is not releasing the sound device after stopping,so how do I check for this and do something about it.
