Any AUR mplayer build with dvdnav support , but no-gui option...?

Is there any mplayer build in the AUR that will install mplayer without its GUI but with dvd menu support...? - I am planning to install SMPlayer as the GUI interface, instead of the default GUI.

I looked into mplayer-mt-nogui-svn, but when I modify the configure options with --enable-dvdnav, it errors out on compiling, so obviously more modification of one of those numerous PKGBUILDs in the AUR is needed, but I am not too savvy in these things to be able to figure it out myself.

Thanks.

If I remember correctly you need to disable the internatl dvdnav  (--disable-dvdread-internal) for --enable-dvdna to work. Although I'm not 100% on this.

If you don't want a gui, I suggest you use the following options in the configure line: --disable-gui --enable-menu.

dvdread and dvdnav should automatically get checked out from svn when checking out mplayer and doesn't require any further steps. Just look closely to the summary mplayer gives you after executing the ./configure [..] command. It should say something in the nature of "using internal dvdread and dvdnav enabled".

You don't need to recompile, this is fixed in extra. Install extra/mplayer and do mplayer dvdnav:// and enjoy.

The reason I don't use it is because some dvds have the menu in a different aspect ratio than the feature. Mplayer doesn't adjust, it keeps the same aspect from the menu on into the feature.

In that case could you not pass the features aspect to the menu as well? mplayer dvdnav://n -aspect 16:9 for ex.

Well sure, but it's still not going to behave correctly without a patch. Anyway, the OP wanted nogui, so my suggestion was null.
