I took a slightly different route and compiled mplayer from source,
without using the pkgsrc system. This will install it under
/usr/local instead of
/usr/pkg. The advantage is you don't have to know anything about pkgsrc compilation. The disadvantage is you won't learn anything about pkgsrc compilation.
I did this for MPlayer-1.1.1 on i386 (can't say if it will work for amd64). Just get the source and install any prerequisite binary packages. Then my notes say:
Code:
To compile, and especially re-compile, for NetBSD,
**** be sure to use __ gmake __ ****
So:
Install the codecs.
> gmake distclean OR gmake clean
> CFLAGS= ./configure
> gmake
# gmake install | tee Install.Out
Might be worth a try.
