in RC_2 when I try to emerge mplayer it is not detecting the dvd libaries I have installed (with emerge) while building and so therefore not adding dvd support , when I build it manually from the emerge sources it detects them fine (with no added configure flags) and builds the dvd support in fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge libdvdread 2. emerge libdvdnav 3. emerge mplayer Actual Results: mplayer downloaded and compiled but without dvd support Expected Results: downloaded and installed with dvd support
um, do you have "dvd" in your USE?
Anyhow, it uses libdvdkit that is built in if 'dvd' in USE. This is usually with bugfixes, and have dvd key caching, so much faster starting to play second time around on same dvd. Closing this as invalid .. if it was not a lack of 'dvd' in USE, include config.log (FEATURES="noclean" emerge mplayer), and also a log of the whole merge until just after configure ends.
