heh, i tried changing " B" to 1998 (win98) and 2222 (win98se), but i dont know if thats right
then i did a make distclean ; make , but i dont know if thats right either, just a big fat NEWBIE right here
still got the same error when ./mplayer file.avi


if someone else wants to try, i got the mvicod32.dll file from the MovieCD™ (Win NT) program file on:
