[MPlayer-users] Xvid installation question

[Steven M. Schultz]

Hi!

	It looks like the decore and encore .h files have been merged into
	a single 'divx4.h' file in the current version of xvid (20020412).

	When I installed the Xvid snapshot (xvid_20020412) I did:

	  cp xvid_20020412/xvidcore/src/divx4.h /usr/local/include/decore.h
	  cp xvid_20020412/xvidcore/src/divx4.h /usr/local/include/encore2.h

	and MPlayer built with no trouble and plays the "Killer Bean #2"
	movie (http://www.jefflew.com/anim.html)

	Should the instructions in the MPlayer documentation be changed from:

6. Get encore2.h and decore.h from the DivX4Linux package, and copy them to /usr/local/include

	to

	6. Copy the divx4.h file from xvid_20020412/xvidcore/src to
	   /usr/local/include/encore2.h and /usr/local/include/decore.h

	?

	It seems to work, but did I just "get lucky"?
