Hello Ulrich,

use this command to fetch yourself the current libavcodec, mplayer does a lot with it

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ffmpeg.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/ffmpeg co ffmpeg/libavcodec

if it's missing then you'll have a hard time to playback between formats. After having
fetched it, replace the libavcodec subdirectory inside mplayer with the downloaded
ffmpeg/libavcodec dir - reconfigure mplayer and remake&reinstall it.

about mplayer+lirc:

mplayer-documentation is >outdated< so the things written there are plain WRONG
only Quit and Pause will work when set up the old way

##### START OF MPLAYER LIRC CONFIG
begin
        remote = *
        prog   = mplayer
        button = INAMEDMYBUTTON_JOE
        config = vo_fullscreen
        repeat = 0
end
### many other lines cut away for email :)
##### END OF MPLAYER LIRC CONFIG

        remote = # you can be more selective here (if you wish to)
        button = # name of the remote-button in your lirc.config
                 # avoid same name as used by VDR or you'll command both apps at once :)
        config = # command to execute inside VDR - see below
        repeat = # 1 usefull for seek, chanswitch
                 # =0 usefull for toggle / ok commands (which you don't want to see repeated)


I have grepped my .lircrc for the commands that i had found specified inside mplayer
there's no guarantee that this list is complete, but most of this works pretty fine :)

I recycled the buttonname for mute in order to command both VDR and Mplayer to be silent at once :)
You can assign the same command to several buttons if you like to, too :)
You can alter the +/- values to match your needs
                 
        config = vo_fullscreen
        config = pause
        config = quit
        config = osd
        config = pause
        config = seek +20
        config = seek -20
        config = volume -1
        config = volume +1
        config = sub_delay -0.1
        config = sub_delay +0.1
        config = alt_src_step -1
        config = alt_src_step +1
        config = seek -10
        config = seek +10
        config = audio_delay -0.100
        config = audio_delay +0.100
        config = pt_step -1
        config = pt_step +1
        config = contrast -1
        config = contrast +1
        config = brightness -1
        config = brightness +1
        config = hue -1
        config = hue +1
