[MPlayer-dev-eng] mplayer on intel macs

[Jamie Kirkpatrick]

Hiya

I actually didn't get the last post in this thread for some reason,  
but Nicolas, you seemed to think you could get a working build on  
Intel macs.  Mine still fails in libavcodec with some bad asm - I  
used SVN in the hope that it may have the patch you mentioned in it  
already but this probably isnt the case.  Can you post a link to the  
patch you used?

Cheers

Jamie
