[MPlayer-cygwin] Mplayer compilation on Window - Newbie

[Szecsi Gabor]

You have to install cygwin - the unix/linux emulation for windows. of
course you may need some linux knowledge too.... http://www.cygwin.com

the packages needed beside standard install: libpng12 with devel also,
same with freetype
You also need X11 to be installed with develelopement packages also.
After it install gtk+ and glib 1.2 packages with devels. site:
http://cygnome.sourceforge.net This is tricy: after install copy the
files in /opt/gnome/bin to /bin.
Then

./configure --enable-gui
make

should work.
after successful compress, if a filename gmplayer.exe does not exist,
rename mplayer.exe to gmplayer.exe or make a symlink: ln -s
mplayer.exe gmplayer.exe
