error message when >16 threads available

[quantumsteve]

When I run "mps" from the command line, I get the error message below. My Mac Pro reports 24 processors (12 cores + hyperthreading), which appears to be more than what mplayer will allow. Would you have MPlayerShell check the number of processors and make sure it is set to at most 16 threads?

The threads option must be <= 16: 24
Error parsing option on the command line: -lavdopts
MPlayer 1.1-4.2.1 (C) 2000-2012 MPlayer Team

Damn. Now that's a bug I didn't expect. You learn something new about Mplayer's peculiar limitations every day. :)

OK, I'll look into this over the weekend. Stay tuned.

any updates on this?

seems like it should be an easy fix - "if processorCount > 16 then threads = 16...."
