MPlayer Installer

!@(uploads/2006/07/mplayer.jpg)I’m currently working on an installer for MPlayer on windows.
The installer is created using NSIS, and it automatically detects the version to download, depending on the computer’s CPU.
I still have to include a few more files in the installer (like fonts for subtitles, a default config file …), so I haven’t released it yet.
But it should come soon. :-)

EDIT : 30th July 2006
It’s over, somehow …
Here’s the installer for MPlayer (Win32) !
It contains :

  • MPlayer (an optimized version is downloaded from the server)
  • Various additional codecs for MPlayer (quicktime, windows media, and many others)
  • Direct Hardware Access files, which should be able to make MPlayer faster

Enjoy yourselves : MPlayerInstaller.exe

!@(/uploads/2006/07/mplayer.jpg)Here you are, I just compiled latest mplayer version for windows!

For those you may not know, mplayer is a fast video player (originally created for linux), which natively supports lots of formats through the ffmpeg library. Thus, mplayer can, with only one single executable, play most of the formats available on the net, including

  • video : flv (flash video), xvid/divx/mpeg4, x264, mpeg1/2 …
  • audio : mp3, aac (mp4), ogg, ac3 …
  • containers : mkv, mp4, ogm, avi, flv, dvds …
  • more

I compiled 3 versions, optimized for different cpus :

  • i686 version : this one should be able to adapt to any cpu since pentium pro.
  • k7 version : this version works on AMD CPUs (starting athlon/duron)
  • p4 version : works on pentium4 and over
