DLPDLCR2000EVM: Mplayer not working

Part Number: DLPDLCR2000EVM

Hello,

I have recently purchased DLPDLCR2000EVM + BeagleBone Black. As per the guidelines I have followed the steps (apart from installing debian, which was already installed). I can't see to be able to run the mplayer python file. It fails with

set slave address: 27
Make sure the display port is set. For example export DISPLAY=:0

  • Hello,

    Welcome to the TI E2E forums and thank you for your interest in DLP technology. 

    We recommend following all steps of the quick start guide to avoid running into issues. The latest version of Debian with support for the EVM is 2017.08.01. Be sure that the beaglebone black  is connected to the internet when updating it and installing libraries.

    Thank you,

    Chris
