Hello all,

Is there any repository containing mplayer package?

Thanks

I don't know about that, but you can try it like it is explained here
(but it is in german, so i try to translate):
http://channel.debian.de/faq/ch-configsoft.html

There ar two possibilities explained there:

1. Method:

1: get the mplayer source from http://www.mplayerhq.hu/ and unpack
them into /usr/src 2. (optional step, if you need these codecs then go on) unpack the
codecs to /usr/lib/win32. They have to be present there bevor beginn
compiling mplayer.
3. look that de build-debendices are resolved: Install
build-essential, libglib-dev, libgtk-dev, xlibs-dev, libpng-dev,
zlib1g-dev and debhelper.
4. install fakeroot
5 change to directory where the mplayer-sources are
6. do dpkg-buldpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us 7. install the deb-package via dpkg -i.

2. Method:
1. add in the /etc/apt/sources.list the folowing:
    deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main
    deb-src ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main
and then run as root "mplayer-build.sh --get stuff".

I hope that would help you.

Regards, Salvatore

Thank you Salvatore for this additional inforamation.
