How do I configure mplayer with x264 installed in non-standard location ?
I don't want to remove the current x264 that I have since then I will have to 
remove all apps dependent on it, so I compiled and installed the latest x264 
on a different location. However I don't see anyway to configure mplayer to 
use this new x264 in "configure --help" nor in the online documentation, nor 
README.

Thanks.
