Due to a lack of Windows developers, it is a good idea to allow Linux developers to do at least some basic check of their code. This HOWTO explains how to set up MinGW cross-compilation under Debian. First, you need to install the "mingw32" package and get a MPlayer SVN checkout. Next, you need quite a lot of dependencies. Since this is for testing and not actually use, the easiest way is to use this package: http://natsuki.mplayerhq.hu/~reimar/mpl_mingw32.tar.bz2 NOTE that this is likely to be quite out-dated and might include packages with security issues, so do not use it to build binaries for real use. After extracting this package into the MPlayer source-tree, you only need to run the included linux-mingw.sh to configure (it just runs ./configure --host-cc=cc --target=i686-mingw32msvc --cc=i586-mingw32msvc-cc --windres=i586-mingw32msvc-windres --ranlib=i586-mingw32msvc-ranlib --with-extraincdir="$PWD/osdep/mingw32" --with-extralibdir="$PWD/osdep/mingw32" --with-freetype-config="$PWD/osdep/mingw32/ftconf") and then run make. You should be able to run the generated binary with Wine, if you want to. The steps as command-lines: sudo apt-get install mingw32 svn co svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk MPlayer-mingw cd MPlayer-mingw wget http://natsuki.mplayerhq.hu/~reimar/mpl_mingw32.tar.bz2 tar -xjf mpl_mingw32.tar.bz2 sh linux-mingw.sh make
