Hehe, I awaiting the day when windows MPlayer has more frontends than the 
linux one ;). Thanks to your tutorial, I already compiled the x264 libs. I'll 
upload a new release as soon as the issues with the quicktime dll preloading 
are resolved. Maybe it is also time to decide if MPlayer should get its own 
webpage, with faq links to the docs and all the related projects. Also the 
mailing list issues need to get resolved with some of the bugreports going to 
-users and some going here.
However I'm a bit busy with studying nowadays so don't expect much from me 
during the next 2 weeks.
