[MPlayer-users] build problems with current mplayer

[George R Goffe]

Howdy,

I'm attempting to build mplayer from source and am experiencing build problems. Builds have succeeded in the past but now don't seem to work any more. My gcc seems to have "incompatible-pointer-types]" turned on. I have turned it off which produces other errors.

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong? For the life of me, I don't see my error.

Can someone help me please?
