Mplayer Problem

[GhostDawg]

I'm using Ubuntu Hoary that I recently upgraded to and have Mplayer installed. Not sure if I had this problem before but now when I try to use mplayer, I get this error message:

$ gmplayer
MPlayer 1.0pre5-3.3.4 (C) 2000-2004 MPlayer Team

I had Warty installed awhile ago but hardly used it, so I see mplayer is old version now..

Any suggestions/ideas on fixing this?

Thnx.

Does MPlayer still work right?

My bet is to uninstall mplayer, VERIFY that the conf file is vaped/deleted/ded, and then reinstall and see if the error still remains.

I do recall that gmplayer would whine about a funky conf file, and still work okay. It may be one goonie option that it doesnt like.

No it doesn't work either from the CLI or from the menu.

I will uninstall it and reinstall it to see if that fixes it.
