Just use full path or create a link. Third and easiest way is to simply add SYS:Application/MPlayer to path from within the user-startup.

Well,

I deleted c:mplayer and now it all works and there is no lag.
My mistake in thinking of mplayer as a stand alone binary.


To create a link in C: for mplayer, does MorphOS use the linux ln command?

nevermind. i used ln -s as in linux.

ln -s sys:applications/mplayer/mplayer mplayer

it works right now.
mplayer -gui 1 launches the full gui when using the link

real sorry about all of that.
i feel really bad now.
if one of my friends had done something so dumb i would have been livid.
i did wonder why mplayer did not have an assign a couple of times but never followed through on the logic.

This would be the end of this thread.

I added the symbolic link info the my article.

All things are working correclt now.

I will go feel really bad for a while.

P.S.

It was discussed that 1920x1080x24bit might not use overlay.
In this mode on my 9600 pro the windows chunk around on the screen.

If I lower to 1920x1080x16bit the chunking goes away and everything is as smooth as silk.
