Can't install (compile) mplayer 1.3.0

[samp-rp-fan]

hi everyone

i'm trying to install new version of mplayer on ubuntu 14.04, but there is no binary packages, so i thought maybe it won't be too hard to compile it from source

./configure worked fine, but when i try 'make' command there is error message in console:

upd: solved, thanks for your replies!

I recommend just using the packages in Doug McMahon's PPA for Trusty: https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archi...u/trusty-media

You might want to give mpv a try, since it is the successor to mplayer.

Did you run

sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer

first before compiling? That will install any needed libraries and header files.

Not sure what you mean by mplayer 1.3.0, typically to build you'd do a svn checkout, then when configuring mplayer would retrieve the latest ffmpeg git.
Your errors seem to be from incompatible ffmpeg & mplayer.

If you want a new mplayer for trusty & don't care about mencoder then see here -

Only updated now every rare once & a while as mplayer isn't being that actively developed any more & myself prefer mpv.
