Description

This is hrev55261 x86_gcc2.

GCC 2 MediaPlayer use old ffmpeg that is slower and it don't play some videos. GCC 4+ MediaPlayer is compiling and running without problems. It can be compiled with jam -q "<x86>MediaPlayer". It should be included to image by default, probably in /boot/system/apps/x86.

I think GCC2 MediaPlayer already uses the latest ffmpeg.

Yes, the "gcc2" version of ffmpeg is in fact built with gcc4 with some wrappers to allow it to run in gcc2 applications.

MediaPlayer is kept this way for now because it allows us to easily test this ffmpeg version.

I have a high resolution video that is playing only in GCC 4+ version of MediaPlayer. GCC 2 version play only audio.

Do you see anything suspicious if you start it from Terminal?
