2 and more threads: hevc get_format cannot be called after ff_thread_finish_setup

[mkkot]

Hello,

when I try to play attached h265 video (​​http://upload.koci.net.pl/uploads/1.mkv) with smplayer and I set Options/Performance/Threads? for decoding (MPEG-1/2 and H.264 only): to value greater than 1, I get no picture (sound is fine) and following output:

Please test current MPlayer svn before reporting an issue here.

[mkkot]

Please accept this one. My version is less than one month old and I was trying to compile latest sources with no luck. Could you please at least check if the video plays for you?

[cehoyos]

One month is not exactly correct:
​http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-cvslog/2015-March/046581.html

Please report all compilation issues on the user mailing list!

[mkkot]

The compilation error is years old and is fixed by:
​https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/include-samba-4.0.patch?h=packages/mplayer

I managed to compile newest version. Indeed you were right, all works here. Sorry for the trouble.
