--with-codecsdir=<dir> tells MPlayer where to look for codecs at
run time. <dir> does not have to exist or be accessible at configure
time.

I assume that <dir> would be specified in the target directory
syntax, but I have never cross-compiled MPlayer. However, you
don't have to worry about it since your source and target syntax
appear to be the same.
