[-ahmed-]

Hi

I am experiencing a strange error while running mencoder on CentOS 5.5
Its just that when running mencoder conversions, the server,after a few minutes of starting the conversion, stops accepting any kind of connections including ssh.

The frequency of the error is
-when running 1 conversion at a time,sometimes.
-when running 2 or more conversions at a time,always.

ANy1 else getting/got the same error?

You might want to try the RHEL 5 version of mplayer available from the rpmforge repos.

Also, have you tried invoking mplayer from the command line, and did you have the same problems when you did?

Also,tried it from commandline.
The error is still der.
