After giving media-video/mplayer a shot without any patches whatsoever, it somehow compiled out of the box. I recall this not to be the case way back when I first took a look at it earlier this year.
Looks like Apple’s new dev tools are a bit more complacent.
More to come shortly. Once I get done with my mid-terms, I should be good to get some Gentoo work done (read: try to get MPlayer keyworded).
Well, there is http://mplayerosx.sf.net
“I compiled MPlayer out of the box, what did you get… I got a rock…”
Sorry had to make the joke. Nice Peanuts theme.
Jane: I do use MPlayer OS X (basically a cocoa gui wrapped around a precompiled mplayer binary), but I was looking for a home-rolled mencoder binary, really. It’d be nice to have an optimized mencoder binary for when i do ripping/encoding.
postmodern: Thanks! More theming to come…
