Well, 0.99.8_5 here, although portupgrade -arR is running on ttyv0, so I
may be installing a broken player also. I assume you have tried under
another WM such as good old TWM? Same result? What about on the
console (no X)? Are you playing video files or audio (probably video)?
The "[ws] Shared Memory Extensions Error" sounds pretty
application-specific to me. It's possible the xfce people should have
referred you to mplayer as well as FBSD. I'm guessing somewhere
between mplayer and X11 and FreeBSD.
What about recompiling whilst passing
--disable-shm
to configure?
Also, I assume you're on X.org, correct?
