Hi all,
i hope you can help me with the following problem:
When I start the program, I get this error:
VideoLAN Client - version 0.2.73 Ourumov - (C)1996-2001
VideoLAN
intf: interface initialized
vout error: didn't find a suitable Xvideo image input port.
vout error: video initialization failed, video is deactivated
/dev/dsp: Das Gerät oder die Ressource ist belegt
-> translation to english:
/dev/dsp: device is used by another service
input: opening file `dvd:/dev/dvd'
I made the program with:
make distclean && ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-gnome \
--enable-fb --enable-esd \
--enable-alsa --enable-mga --enable-gtk \
--disable-optimizatons
And disabled SDL manually in Makefile.opts, cause there are
compiling errors if it's choosen in the Plugin-List.
With the resulting program, I can hear the sound of the
disk, but video is disabled.
Any idea how I can debug or solve the problem?
Yours
Gabriele
