Well, I made it to compile. But there are some error with new ALSA and 
mplayer-cvs-20040111.

ALSA version - 1.0.1
MPlayer vers  -  cvs from 20040111 (current tarball from today)

./configure --prefix=/usr --datadir=/usr/share/mplayer --confdir=/etc/mplayer 
--mandir=/usr/share/man --enable-gui --enable-largefiles --enable-win32

--enable-joystick --disable-mpdvdkit 
--with-cdparanoiaincdir=/usr/include/cdda --enable-external-faad 
--enable-shared-pp --enable-i18n --language=all --enable-menu

When I run mplayer (I want to play Matrix Reloaded DVD ...):

mplayer -framedrop -cache 8192 -ao alsa1x -vf pp -autoq 100 -af channels=6 -vo 
xmga,xv -slang cs,sk,en -alang en,jp,es,cs -dvd-device /dev/cdrom -double -dr 
dvd://1

then the  debug messages are:

</debug>

But the video and sound go well, as I can judge. What do this messages mean? 
Can anybody explain it?
