You might wanna build the latest ffmpeg as well. Run sudo apt-get build-dep ffmpeg if you run into issues, I didn't get any problems.

^ I'll try to track down the package container/holder and see if it can be remedied...

Edit - must be a Windows user because NO debian package maintainer (in his right mind) would have changed the "version number to be more user friendly".

Nice thread. I didn't even know there was an smplayer2 until I read this, thanks!

Re: HOWTO: Build the latest MPlayer2 + SMPlayer with VDPAU on #! Stable

I just tried installing mplayer2 on my Laptop with Crunchbang and found that python3 is now also a dependency and have added to the list of dependencies above. It may have been due to an update of the mplayer2 version and the list may be outdated/include bloat now - but I can confirm it works.

I assume that I can skip step 5 if I only want mplayer2, yeah?

Suppose I want to use apt-get instead of aptitude, what would I do instead?

Re: HOWTO: Build the latest MPlayer2 + SMPlayer with VDPAU on #! Stable

From the beginning:

apt-get install

or do I understand something wrong?

Re: HOWTO: Build the latest MPlayer2 + SMPlayer with VDPAU on #! Stable

I am confused about one thing here:
It is claimed that newer nvidia proprietary drivers include vdpau. I installed 313.30 version on #! stable.
But when I try to install mplayer it pulls an old libvdpau1 with other dependencies. If I unmark libvdpau1, it  triggers some other removals that I don't like.
So, is it possible to install mplayer without libvdpau1 from the repos, and still to use the embedded vdpau from nvidia driver - i.e. -
will mplayer use that embedded vdpau?

I have been struggling with vdpau for some time now, and the only temporal solution was to use xbmc media center until I install mplayer with proper vdpau support (vlc is out of league regarding g accel).
