[MPlayer-users] mplayer with VIA on board sound

[Guenter Schwarz]

Hello to everybody,

I'm new to mplayer and I hope my question is not too stupid.

I checked out the current mplayer source and got the XAnim, DivX codecs 
installed them and then configured and compiled the mplayer. But when I 
try to view an asf movie then I see the movie but there's no sound. The 
console output says

And as shown above the divx audio codec couldn't be found. an it says I 
should enalbe it at compile time. I tried to find the necessary option 
to configure and also tried to find a switch in the source code, but I 
didn't find anything.

So could anybody help me along with that problem. Thanx in advace
