Does anyone know how to make gxine or xine play .wmv files in fordora 2, had it working in fedora 1. I have the win32 codecs installed . I recieve playlist: show, is_visible=0 segmentation fault. The links im tring to play are at www.rock103.com twisted videos.Suppose you have got the win32codec and you still experience that problem - like I did.
thanks for any help
I've got a working solution from http://heliosj.iddings.us/wordpress/index.php.
Here is what I have done (it's exactly what is said on the mentioned site) and worked well - no more segfaults with .wmv in xine or mediaplayer:
1. Edit /etc/syconfig/prelink and change
*PRELINK_OPTS=-mR* to *PRELINK_OPTS="-mR –no-exec-shield”*
2. *touch /var/lib/misc/prelink.force*
3. */etc/cron.daily/prelink* This relinks all the applications, and it takes quite a while.
4. *execstack -s /path/to/mplayer* This turns off exec-shield for the mplayer binary.
Hope it works for you as well.
