hmm, are you trying to cross compile? that is building a cygwin mplayer on
linux?

if so, i dont think its possible yet

compiling your own mplayer is difficult to get started, and most people use mingw
ask joey, his mplayer package is cygwin, check the projects page.

also check the docs about the dependencies (libogg libvorbis etc)

did you come from the kvcd forums? if not, check there for info
