Build Mplayer for arm Linux

Build Mplayer for arm(s3c2440) Linux:

refer to:http://www.opentom.org/Build_MPlayer

1.download the source file and uncompress it to the sysapps directory:

2.run the configure:

./configure \

--prefix=${PRJROOT}/rootfs/usr \

--target=arm-unknown-linux \

--cc=arm-linux-gcc \

--host-cc=gcc \

--as=arm-linux-as \

--enable-fbdev \

--disable-largefiles \

--disable-md5sum \

--disable-pnm \

--disable-tga \

--disable-vcd \

--disable-bluray \

--disable-dvdnav \

--disable-dvdread \

--disable-dvdread-internal \

--disable-libdvdcss-internal \

--enable-menu \

--disable-libmpeg2 \

--disable-libmpeg2-internal \

--disable-liba52 \

--disable-ftp \

--disable-tv \

--disable-networking \

--disable-inet6 \

--disable-mmx \

--disable-mmxext \

--disable-3dnow \

--disable-3dnowext \

--disable-sse \

--disable-sse2 \

--disable-ssse3 \

--disable-shm \

--disable-altivec \

--disable-armv5te \

--disable-armv6 \

--disable-iwmmxt \

--disable-fastmemcpy \

--disable-dynamic-plugins \

--language=en \

--enable-static

#for more information, you can type the “./configure –help”

#accoarding to the configure above, the mplay will install in the directory rootfs/usr

#since in my arm-linux-gcc configure, I don't enable large file support, so –disable-largefiles option must be used.

#option –disable-libmpeg2-internal must be add, because s3c2410 cpu does not support arm pld instruction.

#the end of the –prefix must not have “/”, else install will fail.

3, run make and make install

--it seems that something wrong with cpu type config, so re comfigure with the opton –target=arm-unknown-linux

reference:http://blog.chinaunix.net/u1/49993/showart_400234.html

--target=arm-armv4l-linux这个参数要注意的是一个分三部分，第一部分的arm是指arch，这里设定为arm；第二部分的armv4l是指具体的版本，这个要注意了，一定要跟libavcodec目录下的平台目录名一致，否则为这个平台的优化代码没办法编译进去(据我观察是这样的^_@ )；第三部分是系统平台。

--this way doesn't work , try another option –disable-mencoder

disable MEncoder (A/V encoder) compilation

also does not work alright.

After I google the `eor %edx,%eax,%eax,ror', I found that it was x86 insruction.

So … FUCK ! I forget to export arm-linux-gcc path. What a shame!

Error:

mp_fifo.o: could not read symbols: File in wrong format

--recompile mp_fifo.o

make –new-file=fifo.c

--another file has the same error. Maybe it was because I recompile with make -o Makefile, and after I change configure, some file do not re-compile again. So run make clean and then run make, this problem solved. :)

error:

libmpdemux/mp_taglists.o:(.rodata+0x0): undefined reference to `ff_codec_wav_tags'

libmpdemux/mp_taglists.o:(.rodata+0x14): undefined reference to `ff_codec_bmp_tags'

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

reference: http://ldn.linuxfoundation.org/article/multicore-video-decoding-with-mplayer-part-1

--open the file libmpdemux/mp_taglists.c and remove the “ff_” prefix from both reference.

I try this way, but it does not work.

--take a close look at the error. I seems that ff_codec_wav_tags and ff_codec_bmp_tags have not been defined. I search the google, and find that the two structure are defined in libavformat/riff.c

, but during the configure, we just disable it. So we remove the option --disable-libavformat_a --disable-libavformat_so .

Error:

when running make install, the error below occurs.

strip: Unable to recognise the format of the input file `/home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/bin/mencoder'

--the error occurs. Because that the file mencoder we compile is arm format, but the make script use install -s to accomplish strip task, install is a x86 version program, and can't not operate on arm execute file.

So we have some trick:

(1)first we “run make install -n” to get the command while make will run. And mine looks like below:

install -d /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/bin /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/etc/mplayer /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/lib

install -m 755 -s mencoder /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/bin

install -d /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/share/man/zh_CN/man1

install -m 644 DOCS/man/zh_CN/mplayer.1 /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/share/man/zh_CN/man1/

cd /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/share/man/zh_CN/man1 && ln -sf mplayer.1 mencoder.1

install -m 755 -s mplayer /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/bin

here we delete the install's “-s” option and add arm-linux-strip like below:

install -d /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/bin /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/etc/mplayer /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/lib

install -m 755 mencoder /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/bin

arm-linux-strip /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/bin/mencoder

install -d /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/share/man/zh_CN/man1

install -m 644 DOCS/man/zh_CN/mplayer.1 /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/share/man/zh_CN/man1/

cd /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/share/man/zh_CN/man1 && ln -sf mplayer.1 mencoder.1

cd -

install -m 755 mplayer /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/bin

arm-linux-strip mplayer /home/oneyoung/project/rootfs/usr/bin/mplayer

and past it to the terminal, and the install will be complete.

Test the mplayer:

fetch a movie and try to run “mplayer -nosound 1.avi”

and error occurs:

[swscaler @ 0x8d1fb0]No accelerated colorspace conversion found from yuv420p to.

[swscaler @ 0x8d1fb0]using unscaled yuv420p -> bgra special converter

Can't put VSCREENINFO: Invalid argument

search the VSCREENINFO in the kernel source, and find that ioctl is define in the drivers/video/fbmem.c

        case FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO:
                if (copy_from_user(&var, argp, sizeof(var)))
                        return -EFAULT;
                if (!lock_fb_info(info))
                        return -ENODEV;
                acquire_console_sem();
                info->flags |= FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT;
                ret = fb_set_var(info, &var);
                info->flags &= ~FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT;
                release_console_sem();
                unlock_fb_info(info);
                if (!ret && copy_to_user(argp, &var, sizeof(var)))
                        ret = -EFAULT;
                break;

maybe the problem laid in the frame buffer console, since I don't take care of fbcon, and just initialize the s3c2410fb.

--this is not working, since my fbcon works well.

After that, I have tried many methods, but still does not work. And one day, I refer to the mplayer manual, and find that there is another option -vo fbdev2 instead of -vo fbdev. Eventually it works!!!

just run “mplayer -nosound -vo fbdev2 4.avi”
