<application>MPlayer</application> works on Linux PDAs with ARM CPU e.g. Sharp Zaurus,
Compaq Ipaq. The easiest way to obtain <application>MPlayer</application> is to get it
from one of the <ulink url="http://www.openzaurus.org">OpenZaurus</ulink> package feeds. If
you want to compile it yourself, you should look at the
<ulink url="http://openzaurus.bkbits.net:8080/buildroot/src/packages/mplayer?nav=index.html|src/.|src/packages">MPlayer</ulink>
and the
<ulink url="http://openzaurus.bkbits.net:8080/buildroot/src/packages/libavcodec?nav=index.html|src/.|src/packages">libavcodec</ulink>
directory in the OpenZaurus distribution buildroot. These always have the latest
Makefile and patches used for building a CVS <application>MPlayer</application> with libavcodec.
If you need a GUI frontend, you can use xmms-embedded.
