compilation of mplayer-1.0_pre8 warns (#warning) about the DVB-T COUNTRY being set to the default, UK. I don't even know if the differences between e.g. dvb-t/uk and dvb-t/de might produce any problems and I might have missed the option for DVBT_COUNTRY, too. If there is any: sorry. :-) But if problems might arise, then I'd prefer to have "the choice"(tm:) and the default should IMHO be based upon Locale settings... else it might break the mplayer-vdr-plugin, among others... Thanks for reading this. :-) >>> Emerging (1 of 1) media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre8 to / ... * Make ./version.sh `cc -dumpversion` iconv -f `cat help/help_mp-de.h.charset` -t UTF-8 "help/help_mp-de.h" >> help_mp.h Adding untranslated messages to help_mp.h cc -c -I../libvo -I../../libvo -I/usr/X11R6/include -fno-PIC -O4 -D__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS -march=pentium3 -mtune=pentium3 -pipe -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer -D_REENTRANT -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -I. -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/SDL -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/X11R6/include -I./libavutil -I./libavcodec -o mplayer.o mplayer.c In file included from libmpdemux/dvbin.h:11, from mplayer.c:117: libmpdemux/dvb_defaults.h:73:3: warning: #warning No DVB-T country defined in dvb_defaults.h, defaulting to UK.

the #warning is the same for ~x86 in 20060415.ebuild.

I think that function is not so important, as it only sets some default-values for dvb-t transmission, but these parameters do exist in every entry in the channels-file. Have to dig into the code to see if this is useful at all.
I checked the source-code: The parameters set according to the country-choose are never used. They can be removed (or at least the compiler-warning). I requested to remove them completely from mplayer-source-code on the mplayer-dev-ML.
upstream issue, will be fixed there
