mplayer not compiling


Now, I'm no newbie to compiling software, and I need to have it compiled so I can have support for the more obscure video codecs out there (that and I'd like to solve the problem rather than avoid it ). I've compiled and installed mplayer severals times, but this is an older computer, and it doesn't seem to be working out for me. Configure goes off without a hitch, and make seems to be going great until I run into this:

Code:
: undefined reference to `xan_wc3_decoder'
libavcodec/libavcodec.a(allcodecs.o)(.text+0x35a): In function `avcodec_register_all':
: undefined reference to `cinepak_decoder'
libavcodec/libavcodec.a(allcodecs.o)(.text+0x37e): In function `avcodec_register_all':
: undefined reference to `vqa_decoder'
libavcodec/libavcodec.a(allcodecs.o)(.text+0x3f6): In function `avcodec_register_all':
: undefined reference to `ra_144_decoder'
libavcodec/libavcodec.a(allcodecs.o)(.text+0x402): In function `avcodec_register_all':
: undefined reference to `ra_288_decoder'
libavcodec/libavcodec.a(mpegvideo.o)(.text+0x8d65): In function `convert_matrix':
: undefined reference to `ff_faandct'
libavcodec/libavcodec.a(dsputil.o)(.text+0xff2): In function `dsputil_init':
: undefined reference to `ff_faandct'
libavcodec/libavcodec.a(dsputil.o)(.text+0xff7): In function `dsputil_init':
: undefined reference to `ff_faandct248'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [mplayer] Error 1
djkthx@sousuke:MPlayer-1.0pre5$
The error message is rather cryptic, and I have no idea what it means. Any ideas?

it means that the functions xan_wc3_decoder etc. cannot be found. you'll have to find the .h file in which these functions exists and put it in the search path in order for make to be able to find them, and use them to compile mplayer.

I just tried MPlayer-current, and it seemed to have worked fine o_O.

Thanks for the help anyways
