[MPlayer-users] Cross-compiling mplayer

I finally have a platform which will compile Mplayer 1.0 pre?.  (As I
run RedHat 8, this required installing gcc 3.3.1 from source - not bad
but time consuming.)

This particular machine is Athlon based.  Now I want to compile MPlayer
for some other machines I have around, but they have various CPUs.

Machine A:  533 Celeron
Machine B:  650 Celeron (Toshiba laptop)
Machine C:  Athlon 1000

None of these other machines has a development environment, so I need to
build mplayer on the one upgraded machine.  Is there a guide somewhere
which options I need to use? (mmx, mmx2, 3dnow, 3dnow-dsp, sse, sse2,
and any others?)

I looked in the docs; no real guidance there, it assumes that you're
compiling on the machine that mplayer will run on.  Any other pitfalls,
gotchas, and so on?

It's pretty critical especially on the 533 and 650 celerons....

TIA,
