Dear All I am experiencing the following? $ mplayer -dumpaudio get_video.flv MPlayer 1.0rc1-rpm.livna.org-4.1.1 (C) 2000-2006 MPlayer Team CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 2.80GHz (Family: 15, Model: 4, Stepping: 7) CPUflags: MMX: 1 MMX2: 1 3DNow: 0 3DNow2: 0 SSE: 1 SSE2: 1 Compiled with runtime CPU detection. mplayer: could not connect to socket mplayer: No such file or directory Failed to open LIRC support. You will not be able to use your remote control. Playing get_video.flv. MPlayer interrupted by signal 11 in module: demux_open - MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM. Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash. - MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen. It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug. $ Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Paul
