[MPlayer-users] How to cross-compile mplayer.exe

[bat guano]

> What system and binutils version are you running?

Hi
I'm using Xubuntu-12.04.

Not sure which version of binutils, maybe 2.23.
It's not a 'system' program, was compiled into 'toolchain' using this Zeranoe build script ---> $ wget http://zeranoe.com/scripts/mingw_w64_build/mingw-w64-build-3.1.0

This is the method I've used now...

$ cd MPlayer-mingw
$ export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/mingw-w64-i686/bin"
$ ./configure \
--enable-cross-compile \
--cc=i686-w64-mingw32-gcc \
--ar=i686-w64-mingw32-ar \
--as=i686-w64-mingw32-as \
--nm=i686-w64-mingw32-nm \
--ranlib=i686-w64-mingw32-ranlib \
--windres=i686-w64-mingw32-windres && make

ALL those config options might not necessary, but it's done the job OK.
:-)

Next I will look into building some extra libraries.
