Hello,

Just disable your firewall temporary and enable it back after finishing the installation

I'm having the same issues, and I do not have a firewall. (I have installed this one time previously with no issue.)

Installation of mplayer.tar.gz ....... started

Do they have any kind of access limits on their SVN, do you know? It is the svn.mplayerhq.hu itself that is unreachable.


Anyway, this is easily resolved with a simple modification of the mplayer.sh. I downloaded the latest mplayer from mplayerhq.hu, decompressed it, renamed the directory to mplayer, and placed it in /root/

After that it is as simple as commenting out the svn checkout line and adding the following in its place:

# the following line is the commented out subversion checkout. Make sure you do this!!
#/usr/local/cpffmpeg/bin/svn  checkout  svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer
cp -R /root/mplayer $INSTALL_SDIR
