Thanks. I hadn't started to dig into the problem yet, but the compile error was blah..blah..blah.. libtool.... ccache...

This is great. I'm itching to try out MPlayer-cvs.

------->>>EDIT

It worked. A minute or so later, Subversion compiles. A minute after that, MPlayer-svn didn't. I guess that's a talk for this new and improved thread!

It seems that the compiler is not finding avutil.h (possibly from the ffmpeg library [/libavcodec/avcodec.h]).

I guess this thread has become an evolving thing. Using versionpkg as suggested by tomk (err.. the maintainer!) does the trick. Now to get it to install??... (with the MPlayer plug-in and KMplayer working)

Re: Compiling MPlayer-SVN on Arch64

The trick is to simply uninstall mplayer and kmplayer. Install mplayer-svn, then reinstall (in my case) kmplayer. It works! I just saw a video that I couldn't play before I started this thread!

I can watch Yahoo and CNN videos with this. Holy crap! I don't even care about those sites. Replace MPlayer immediately!

(This is a pure 64 bit build)
