Well, that's what I meant, but it wasn't that easy. This is among the
strangest I've seen. Twice it has started: the first time I tried with
the binary package and then with my own compilation.

Mplayer works from command line, so it's MPlayer OSX that's crashing.
I wonder how it's supposed to locate mplayer?

One correction to my previous mails: my Xcode is of version 1.1.

Making gives some warnings:

VideoOpenGLView.m:140: conflicting types for `-(void)drawRect:(NSRect *)bounds'
NSView.h:200: previous declaration of `-(void)drawRect:(NSRect)rect'
(I cannot say how serious this is)

MplayerInterface.m:1062: unknown conversion type character 0x20 in format
(probably easy to fix, a % sign missing, I believe)

2007-03-10 10:40:30.846 xcodebuild[900] Container
<PBXProject:0x00380090:rtn=1:29B97313FDCFA39411CA2CEA:path='(null)'>
still contains 2 items after being deallocated.  This might be a
memory leak, or an item not being properly marked as removed from its
container before being deallocated.
(this comes after COMPLETED, no idea why)

And since the result won't run on my machine, I can't say everything
is correct in the project file, but I'll mail it to you... I also had
to make changes in Makefile and create_dmg script. The .svn
directories end up inside the installer, they shouldn't...
