hi,

i'm trying to compile mplayer with some errors. here's what i did so far:
1. install mingw-3.1.0-1 and msys 1.0.10.
2. get mplayer sources from the mplayer cvs module.
3. run make

it failed in the following files: demux_ogg, ad_libvorbis, vd_xvid4, ve_xvid4. the errors are related to the fact that it cannot find xvid.h, vorbis/codec.h, ogg/ogg.h.

where should i take those header files from? does it make any sense to put them in cvs as well?

thanks,

-yuval

hi yuvalt,

libogg and xvid can be downloaded @ the following locations:

http://www.vorbis.com/download.psp
http://www.xvid.org/downloads.html

however, for me the problems started there- compilation errors kept popping up, it seems like only a specific combination of versions will get it running.

furthermore, read

mplayer windows compilation docs and contained links (such as the searchable mplayer-cygwin mailing list for more info)

and the following may be of help:

precompiled windows ogg/vorbis libraries

after trying a number of different version combinations i finally gave up compiling x-mplayer, if it does work for you please state your steps to succes!

good luck,

ezd
