Hello
Just posting here about TCL 4.0.1
Uh. i have not had much luck with playing web streamed movies in TCL.
Granted the machine was old, but works perfect at the desired task
of movies as i have already experienced it...
anyhow, with tCL 4.0.1 i tried again for movies....and this is on a better
laptop.
Just with a default TCL boot and "mplayer nodeps" installed i was able
to watch perfect qaulity movies.
When you issue the player commands you use the argument of "-zoom"
followed by the movie web address of movie local file.
When the movie starts i maximaize the screen in the normal windows
way and then press the F key for "fullscreen".
Sometimes the movie may need an extra agrument or two like "-framedrop"
to help the video image flow....or other arguments like "-cache 8192" or
"-nocache"
So typical command
$ mplayer -zoom
http://www.themoviestream.aviI think the info notes about "Mplayer nodeps" have an error.
The argument is "-zoom followed by the movie file...."...it's not "-zoom f followed by the movie file"
OR am i reading it wrong?
Anyhow, it works fine here. IT's simple and quik install ....resulting in quik movie
watching with "
mplayer no-deps" . It's still an 8 year old laptop...so.
I heard about "Pirates of silicon valley" about Steve jobs...anybody seen it
thanks
