• So guys, this is my first Raspberry Pi howto, so as the saying goes, bear with me. I love the terminal.

Raspberry Pi B 2014-01-07 Raspbian fully up to date. Installed and configured motion for surveillance. It works just fine and creates.avi files and.jpeg. Installed Mplayer trying to run it from desktop was not successful. I did try to do a command line by executing sudo mplayer /path/to/file/video. Jan 12, 2014 - Need to instal mplayer on the Mac so you can access it from the. First, you need to install gpac on the Pi, then run MP4Box (part of that install).

Books of masud rana. And to quote one guy on another forum (I don't remember where) 'Chicks dig guys with terminals.' B-) Also, the terminal is significantly more RP friendly than X (differ if you must, but I really feel that it's inherent because of the amount of RAM) I spend about 80% of my time on the RP in the terminal without ever starting X. So, here's how to play youtube without ever having to boot X! BTW, this requires omxplayer for the RP. Advantages: • Don't have to boot X • Hardware Acceleration • What the heck?? Who needs Flash or HTML5?? So here's how: First, we need several dependencies: youtube-dl and python-setuptools.

Problem: youtube-dl isn't in the ARM repos. Not sure why. So, we have to download it here. Code: wget tar -zxvf whitey-0.1.tar.gz But DON'T INSTALL YET!. We need to tell yt to use omxplayer not mplayer because that doesn't work on the RP. Navigate to whitey's /src/yt/ directory, and edit __init__.py as follows: The line that has the mplayer command in it, change mplayer to omxplayer, and remove the argument switches.

Or, you can download my edited version here: and replace the file completely. Next, navigate up two directories so that you are in the main whitey folder, and then install. How To Install Mplayer In Linux Okay, after a bit of googling, I think it's actually a bug in the yt program itself. Evidently, the curs_set() changes the visibility of the console cursor. It seems that there's an incompatibility with that command and some terminals. Is this through SSH?

Or did you set the RP to use vt100 or something like that? You could try commenting out that line (line 69 I believe), and re 'compiling' (sudo python setup.py install). Or put a try/catch around that part of the code. From what I understand, the yt program isn't very well documented or even maintained.
