MorphOS: MPlayer 1.0 (2010.04.14)
Fabien 'Fab' Coeurjoly has published an update of his MorphOS-port of the program MPlayer. Changes in this version:
  • Updated to 14.04.2010 svn (r31036): as usual, many new codecs, fixes and so on...
  • GUI module:
    • Don't spam status line with too frequent status updates
    • Don't change window focus in separated mode when playing a new title
    • Mouse pointer wasn't hidden when entering fullscreen mode if mouse wasn't moved first
  • General:
    • Enabled librtmp support (still experimental in MPlayer)
    • Automatically crop if source width exceeds the overlay maximal width instead of quitting (generally happens for 1080p streams on radeon 92x0 models, where overlay width is limited to 1536 pixels)
    • Allow to interrupt network streams faster (it previously waited for buffer fill/connection timeout, which could take quite some time)
    • Fixed some modulo issue with some VP6 files and also in cgx_wpa driver, which would give a trashed display
    • Fixed some greenish effect on some WMV files
