It's also discused at: http://www.bttr-software.de/forum/forum_entry.php?id=1131 we are trying to figure out why it crashes when playing WMV (WMA stream - if sound decoding is disabled it works) file which cause this SIGILL error: http://www.bttr-software.de/forum/img/uploaded/image2.gif Mplayer works ok compiled by same version of gcc on windows and Linux and even DOS/DJGPP version doesn't crash under windows 98 - there maybe influence of DPMI server, as I know win9x DPMI is more fault tolerant. I'd like to know if the bug is caused in some specific DJGPP function or it is hidden mplayer bug which doesn't propagate under oher OSes. What's your opinion? (tested WMA file causing crash: Here's an alternative movie: http://www.sequentialpictures.com/moviestarwarsepisode3.html I had to disable audio output: mplayer -ac null swe3_sma.wmv)
