Can someone verify this works (and looks) correct. Thanks for the patch, Laurent.
(In reply to comment #1) > Can someone verify this works (and looks) correct. Yes, that's the patch I failed to write in the past few days :) It fixes my problems on ppc64. Thanks a lot Laurent ! I don't know how to contact upstream, but imho they should be made aware of this and this patch applied there. @beandog: I'll let you apply it, I'm not enough at ease with mplayer's ebuild ;)
Patch added in mplayer-1.0_rc2_p26753-r1, hopefully this fixes the solution, reopen if not.
just to note in case you bring it upstream: this patch breaks OSX on PPC.
